Hi
Don't know if it even exists, but I'm looking for a paint program designed to emulate the graphic on a C64.
Something that will automatically set all the limitations and per default have wide pixels.
 
thought it would be fun to try and work with that kind of graphic, but I'd rather just work with the limitations being there, rather than always check up if they are being followed everywhere when using a normal paint program.
 
Any help would be appreciated :-)

I was under the impression that Grafx2 could do that, but don't take my word for it, I'm not a Grafx user.

You could always try a C64 emulator and run an actual C64 art program there.

Support for it is planned in grafx2, but the constraint check is done only when you save a picture.
It is still possible to have wide pixels and the right color palette. But the block constraint are only checked at save time.
