THAT FREE ART PACKAGE!!!

[TotO]

Nice green MacPro !

Turns out that Gpaint is not the same art package that came with the Amstrad action :| any lists of the cover tapes ?

Screen Designer?

Not exactly brilliant, but it did the job.

Going through all the tape issues till i find it, could be Gpaint, but i remember it starting you straight on the drawing screen ,tools down the right hand side

Perfect to toss with a greek salad...


lol sorry... couldn't resist.

You did notice it says "Albanian", eh?


Still, better than this (true picture):

Back to topic....




Another great art package is the Advanced OCP art studio. See Wiki page.

Still, better than this (true picture):

wow, this looks gorgeous and delicious.

Anyway, Advanced OCP art studio is the reference actually.
Somewhat modern and powerfull, it had some patches as well.

If you have a PLUS (or with emulator) you may use GOS too...

I had some of that cheese in my fridge back when I was a student... Unfortunately it was Gouda when I put it in there

Im fully converted to it, in fact this IS my next gen experience, using this for the next 7 years 


To the point that i actually want to throw money at somebody for this amazing piece of kit, i remember seeing it as i kid, it was expensive back then if i remember correctly..but boy did i miss out :|

Dudes, I'm sorry but this conversation is becoming cheesy.
and out of topic.
I guess it's all my fault. But you all know how much cheese means to us French. and trolling as well.

I had some of that cheese in my fridge back when I was a student... Unfortunately it was Gouda when I put it in there

yeah, unlike USA, those Eurocheeses can actually grow a culture in less than 3 centuries.



Anyway, Grafix2 is great on modern PC.
But actually any stuff like Paint.net or Gimp ou so on can do.
There are a lot of way to convert into CPC friendly picture then.

If you don't have a proper mouse it can be paint in the ass (see what I did here ?) to work on the old CPC/PLUS.
Also it is always better to have the application on a ROM card as well as if lets you get a bit more RAM and fastness.

sorry but i fail to understand what you are talking about... dubious chesese, OCP art studio or amstrad PLUS ?


GOS seems nice as it works in overscan.
But seems to only use keyboard.

To me it would be great to have such thing enabling big sized pictures, using sprites as pointer or other features, good GUI and modern menu things...
Should be great to develop picture formats including sprite patches and rasters/multimode as well.

In case you need an English doc for gos... (just did that quick and dirty).

[Gryzor]

What *IS* GOS? Where do you get it?
