Sprite Shop over half done

Alright been awhile since I posted work.

My development has been infringed upon by several things. I've been hanging with friends a lot lately. Not that thats bad but it leaves me with less time to work. Plus I ordered new parts to build a computer and I have been looking at how to build it and when the parts would get to London. They got to London but were unable to be delivered before the weekend so I have to wait until Monday for that.

Which has given me time I was going to devote to fawning over my new piece of equipment to spending time with Rose and development time on sprite shop.

Here is an update in what has happened since last post.



As you can see I actually got into the whole "Drawing" thing that a program like this would be expected to do.

-I drew the "Woot" with the regular pencil tool.
-The outline was done with the outline tool. Click a colour and then the program will take the edge of that color and change it.
-The circle with the rectangle and lines in it were done with the Circle, Rectangle, And Square tool.
-I filled the rectangle with the paint tool.
-The burn tool changed the colour of that one random pixel in the middle of the white space.
- Travis and I decided that with the way the burn tool was functioning dodge would be redundant so I got rid of it.
-The dodge space has been taken by colour replace: to use simply click the drawing area and all pixels with the colour you clicked on will be replaced with the colour you clicked with. I used the colour gradient and colour replace to re-colour the dudes hair from brown to purple.
-As you can also see zoom is working as we are veiwing the picture at 2 times normal size. You can either use the side buttons to zoom in and out or simply scroll the middle mouse button.

I'm currently working on being able to select an area of the picture and move it etc. I hope to have it done tomorrow or Monday. It is being a little irritating so I will most likely intersperse it's development with the remaining features. After this is done I will begin working on layers.

Anyways as always let me know what you guys think I appreciate the comments and or praise.
