I'd like to announce the first public release of my DPaint-inspired graphics program, EvilPixie.

Basically, for the last 15 years I've wanted something like DPaint, but... well... nothing quite had the right _feel_.
So I bit the bullet and started coding it myself.

It currently only supports image files with palettes (!), but supports a whole heap of file formats (including IFF/ILBM, naturally .

There's a hacked-up windows build here.
Source is here and builds fine on Linux, and probably OSX (but not got a mac here to try it on).

You'll notice that all the toolbar icons are poke-your-eyes-out ugly. That's intentional. I mean to provoke someone into such a rage that they'll draw up some appropriately awesome ones (just replace the files in the icons directory and restart the app).
Same goes for desktop icon, example images, project logo or anything like that. Without your help, it's doomed to my crap programmer graphics...

So please let me know what you think so far.
And if you draw anything cool with it, let me know!

It's still early days - my upcoming development priorities are: animation support, proper RGB (ie non-paletted) support, layers... all that good stuff.

Well, there's nothing too startling to see, but here you go :-)
