Dear Michael,

That's a great feature (ie. repeat), I wish I had noticed it myself. Works great.

As to bit mapped drawing, yes, I have been using MS Paint forever! You can do some amazing things using only Paint.

I recently used a scanned bmp of a large diamond pendant, and cut it up into many fragments. Then manipulating the fragments, I put some together to make a matching pair of earstuds, and the top of a ring.

NO RENDERING REQUIRED; the original scan had all the real metal colours, highlights etc. and of course real photographs of the diamonds and rubies. I was amazed at what such a simple program could do for me.

As to using some other pencil-like programs, thanks, but no thanks for the moment. I had a trial version of Painter that came with the tablet and did try it, but Michael, your programme is so simple, so intuitive... I am in love with it.

...and I am strictly monogamous. No other programme for me, but many thanks for your honest suggestion.

Warm regards,
Nariman.
