Peter,
Thank you for this great, creative tool!
The additions in Flame Painter 2.5.0 Pro are wonderful! I love the "Blur" and "Glow" effect filters. The "Basic Brush" — with its sliders (including "Step") — is really a valuable addition! And "Infinite Tiling" . . . YES!
"Swap Gradient Colors" with Ctrl/Cmd adds a welcomed flexibility to gradients. I'm excited about the "One-click sharing in online Brush Library" — that is excellent!
And now, Flame Painter is a full 64-bit application! The "sky is the limit" for canvas size! Cool!
And before reading this blog, I didn't realize that a new layer can be specified as a "Vector" layer — an EDITABLE vector layer!!! GREAT!
And one other thing: Under the main menu's "Help," you have "Show brushes folder." That is a very handy convenience. THANK YOU! At one point, when new brushes were downloaded, the brush files didn't retain the file name, but only a generic number (e.g., 01, 02, 03). Having easy access to the brushes folder made it easy for me to replace those brush files with the ones that have the correct brush file name. ALSO, it is great that, now, in FP 2.5, the brushes can simply be dragged FROM the brushes web page TO the FP brushes panel (instead of downloading). EXCELLENT!
Merry Christmas, and best wishes for a year filled with joy, light, love . . . and good adventures!
David, thank you very much for you encouragement, we are very happy that you like this new version and all its features. :) We have many more ideas how to make Flame and Amberlight even more creative, just everything takes time..
Wish you a very successful and joyful new year!
Peter
