Hi Ralf,

I'm running v1.01 on Ubuntu 11.1 32 bit. Still not working, but the direct link. Many thanks for the good support. I'm an ex-Paint Shop Pro user, now converted to Linux. Your software lloks very good to me.
Thanks Ralf! Ah ok, Ubuntu, sometimes not all Qt libraries are pre-installed so what you can do is to install a software package which install ALL Qt libs, like "Qt Creator" for example, after that the help should work.

Hi there, I bought and downloaded PaintSupreme from Apple's App Store. I really think this is headed in the right direction, I'm glad to see that someone is giving Adobe a run for its money. I've always hated Adobe products. They're so clunky and obtuse. The $20 price tag was nice, and it really looks like you put a lot of effort into the app.
That said, within 15 minutes of using it, I've found it to be quite buggy. Moving layers with alphas leaves artifacts in the transparent areas that don't seem to be editable, and the only way to correct this is to delete the layer and start again. Then, after mucking around with layers for a bit, I was no longer able to change the selected layer. Also, selecting regions with the magic wand is REALLY slow, and also prone to hang the app. So, although your app offers an impressive feature set (especially for such a reasonable price), it isn't really usable at this point. I wouldn't even call it BETA. It should have been issued ALPHA.
I'd like to request more alpha channel access. I want to be able to view and edit it directly. Also, it would be helpful to be able to nudge layers at the pixel resolution with the cursor keys. Pixel pushing with the mouse or trackpad kills my carpal tunnels.
And, please find a better solution to listing all the supported file formats OTHER than in one big unsorted list.
Otherwise, bravo, keep up the good work!
Hi, thanks for your nice words Edward! We will release v1.1 of PaintSupreme hopefully next week. v1.1 should fix most of the problems and also adds some new features. Speed has improved significantly everywhere, i think you will like it overall.
Please have a look at v1.1 once it is out and if you suggestions for improvements for v1.2 please send them and we will try to include them for v1.2.
Thanks a lot,
Markus
