Image editor: PyDPainter 2.1.0 for Windows
The image editor PyDPainter (new video) is inspired by DPaint and according to its author Mark Riale an attempt to create a usable pixel art program in Python using PyGame that can handle low resolutions and limited colour palettes and which can be as easy to use as possible (amiga-news.de reported). Version 2.1.0, among others, implements animbrushes:
- Faster animated GIF loading
- Preserve palette when converting to fewer colors
- Implement animbrushes
- Load/Save IFF ANIM (ANBR) and GIF brushes
- Grab Frames - grab animbrush from frames in an animation
- Grab Grid - grab animbrush from a sprite sheet on a single screen
- New Brush Grid requestor:

- Flex grid in X and Y for non-uniform sprite sheets
- Align brushes in X and Y for flex grid
- Visual representation with draggable grid

- Settings:
- forward/backward/ping-pong/random
