Hello,
I'd like to present you a project I work on.

It's a pixel art editor made for animation :


Some features:
  • A multi layer timeline where you can control the duration of each frame
  • OnionSkin (only previous and next frame now)
  • Indexed color of course
  • different pen, palette and texture, you can import and export them
  • tools : pen, pipette, fill, move and selection (which make a automatically a custom brush)
  • png and gif import and export (gif export is automatically made after png with imagemagick)
  • a .pix file which save all the state of the animation
  • undo/redo
  • copy/paste (on the timeline)
  • ...

It work on windows and linux (apparently not in macos, I don't know why), but it's not completely stable, be careful.

You've got all information on Github (installation, shortcuts): https://github.com/z-uo/pixeditor
