Graphics Creator NEW BETA!!

[geoff]

http://www.sploder.com/free-graphics-editor.php?beta=true

You MUST go to the link above to see the new graphics creator. You should see a message indicating you are using the new beta.

What's New:

1. Larger, 60x60 graphic size. No animation is supported in this size.
2. Patterns for the up-and-coming platformer update (with graphics)
3. Fix to copy and paste. You can now copy an area, move the window and paste it anywhere.
4. Speed improvements in undo/redo.

Remember, this is a beta release, so there may be bugs, and your graphic may even get corrupted.  You've been warned.

Please post any bugs you see here.

YES! So the Platformer's graphics feature will be out soon?

[geoff]

Hopefully. BUT, it will be released as a beta. Meaning, you'll be able to build and test, but if you publish it will simply play without the graphics (I think, or it may end the universe as we know it).

This stuff with the platformer is really tricky to do and may cause weird things to happen. My main concern is weird things happening to old games so I'll encourage everyone to test out their old games (but not save them in the new creator)

[kittysocks]

YESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From 8 bit to 16 bit!

The shirt button doesn't work for me XD

Alright, great! I hope the full release comes out soon!

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

It does, sorry

[alon]

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

I agree, I'm pretty sure "bit" is the color selection, and the stuff like "60x60" is size. Not exactly sure, it's been a while since I had to mess with that stuff.

EDIT: Just remembered some stuff about 256 graphics, and old Windows 95 graphic schemes. It is color.

[Queen Probe]

Geoff youre gonna be making graphics like the newer consoles soon!

[kittysocks]

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

I'm such a failz. x.x But I mean it takes multiple graphics to make a legit 16 bit graphic, like the SNES has. (If you don't consider the 32-bit color.) With the 60x60 it will be alot easier.

[Sonic234]

Thank you so much man.

[geoff]

I know what you mean.

The real meaning of 8bit, 16bit, 32bit is the number of bits allowed to store 1 pixel. So, if you only have 1 bit, you can only make on or off, so a black or white pixel. 8 bits allows 2^8 or 256 colors (or shades of gray) 16-bit means 2^16 or 65536 colors. The graphics editor is and always has been 32bit or about 16million colors with 256 levels of transparency.

Geoff, I'm just wondering, have you ever thought of having a zoom feature in the graphics creator?

Yes!

Also, a shape tool would be nice as circles are a pain to draw.

[liamnight]

Also, the template for the shirt doesn't seem to show up.

YOU GET THAT TOO? OMAI!

It asks me for 96 KB

It's annoying. I can't work on my game because of it.

exactly

[bluesky051]

So that new drop box with a t-shirt icon will be for what?

[Wind]

ooooooo
We can make vehicle graphics, too x3

 Blue, it's a template thingy

[geoff]

The shirt icon is just an icon to indicate the patterns. It is not a pattern itself. Hold your mouse over each icon to see a description.

Really? REALLY??  Stop hitting deny!!! There's no reason in the world why you shouldn't allow a little more space to store your undo and saved data. Really.

Well, I'm on my mom's computer... and I don't wanna mess it up...

It won't, heck, almost everything your browser does uses space in your hard drive silently. It won't cause anything wierd to happen.

Correct. It won't be messed up. 

[Prince FFK]

Correct. It won't be messed up. 

Well, I showed my dad (or mom) and they told me to click deny.
