I need a program

[smrgol]

Paint doesn't do enough, Paint Shop Pro 8 is a pain in the tail to figure out.

I need "Paint Plus".

I want to be able to cut out a chunk of the graphic and rotate it either freehand or by a specified angle.
PSP8 wants to rotate the whole image even when I have the part I want on a separate layer, Paint only  rotates 90 degrees.

I want to be able to zoom out to see the whole image, or in to work on details.

Basic layering would be nice, but not necessary.

Freeware would be ideal, but I'd probably pay for a program that does what I need.

Any ideas?

GIMP is nice! But then again, I have been using it as my main image manupulator for over a year now... so I may be biased. It does take a lot of getting used to if you're used to PSP's interface, though.

Main reason for commenting though - I can't find your email so I'll ask here. I got an email from someone who liked the Mountain Dragon and wanted a similar suit in red. Since you're the owner of the original, I thought I'd ask first if you minded there being a similar suit running about or not.

Do the red Dragon by all means!

I don't mind you reusing the design at all.

Perhaps I'll meet up with "Red" at a con some say and we can do a group
shot.

Is the potential buyer here in the US?


One question - what adhesive do you use for the silicone pawpads? I've lost three of the green ones you sent me for the dragon so far. Obviously I've used the wrong adhesive.


Barq! (The Puppy) goes on his next outing this coming weekend to the
"Penguin Plunge" up in Connecticut. It's a charity event.

Have fun making "Red: and send pictures!
