TELSTAR5  Well, this app does look quite good - in the screenshots, but it's Leopard only. Guess if I could afford the update, I'd have Photoshop instead.

Is there a stable version which will work with x86 10.4?

OILCONSUMER  I thought this update would bring something less Paintbrush, but all you have done is change it to HUD and these BETA features do not work.

OILCONSUMER  yes fair enough they are BETA but for me they do not work AT ALL. I'm just commenting and making aware of this, even though you maybe already aware of this.

Good Luck

OILCONSUMER  1. Can't see the difference between this and paintbrush...

2. Stop button on the toolbar is ugly

2b. The whole toolbar is ugly, i want simplicity.

3. ugly overall interface, HUD and normal windows do not integrate well together.

This is practically a bad remake of Paintbrush...

bad vote from me and as BIMMER said, not worth downloading.

ZC456  I can't comment anymore on iPaint since its no longer for my platform at all. While you've gotten a very low rating so far, I also agree with Bimmer (sept for the Vanilla Draw part.) Don't stop Mac OS X does need paint. Even if Apple won't make there own version.

keep on going though, you may make something which worth downloading!

F1RACER328  Vanilla Draw has the same features, ugly startup/overall interface, Giza products spammed all over it, no credit what so ever to paintbrush, Didn't even get the SUFeedURL in, which means this developer is an idiot, probably stole the idea to make an app based off of paintbrush when the guy saw iPaint, i have no idea how the logo represents a painting/drawing application, drawing can mean more then the features vanilla has, under the help the Contact button is the one to the paintbrush dev, ugly overall everything, and its twice the size for nothing...

CHAS90  I have a 10.4.11 Intel Mac, and iPaint is running on it.

But that's just because I denied every further update after version 1.4. (The newer versions all produced the same problems as for the other users)

In this version the only things that don't work are: cutting and copy&pasting... and I have to forcequit.

LAO REN CHA  What SJHA and others said. I tried v1.6 a couple of days ago but the program could produce no "New" window. I figured I'd give it another shot today to see whether v1.7 resolved the problem. Nope, iPaint is still non-functional, at least on a Power Mac G5 running 10.4.11.

If you "can't do any testing" for all configurations, don't release the software claiming it "Should Work Fine with 10.4.11 Machines, and PPC. Full Universal." You're wasting our time.

A totally amateur effort, especially in this day and age. I won't bother trying iPaint again.

Except some of the text is white-on-gray, which is pretty hard to read. I'm guessing it has something to do with Leopard's HUD windows?

DNELSON  Okay... I launched iPaint (version 1.3) and it told me to update to version "1.3 10 27" so I did. Here's the problem: this new version of iPaint is Intel only. Developer, please undo whatever you did in this last update. Btw, I think the 3 updates in one day is pretty cool. :)

F1RACER328  Ok I'm sorry that I made it intel only. I know what I did wrong. I built/compiled on 10.4 intel settings. It might be the HUD windows that are doing it or when I compiled it. Would it be possible for someone on mac os x 10.4 and PPC to be a tester for me? If you want email me at tedolinar@me.com
