"Lack of professionalism" I've already done a better job, Mark. Our paint software is *far* more powerful than DigiPaint or ToasterPaint. The only things in those programs that we did not have were the blending functions, and those have been added this week. Looking the other way, the number of functions that our paint software has that Toaster Paint doesn't have are legion. No kidding. Try an anti-aliased brush rotation. Heck, try a brush rotation at all. :^) Try a lens focus operation. "What's that?" I hear you cry. :^) There's plenty more, and more added all the time.

Finally, I did not assume you were just another user, Mark – If you look back you'll see I only said in my direct reply that I felt I had reason to say what I said about ToasterPaint, and that I thought that the toaster itself was a nice item. You, on the other hand have said "if you can do a better job, why don't you do it?" Without any direct knowledge of what our paint can do (or you would NEVER have said that). You also said something in your initial message that was similar, though it escapes me at the moment… it was far enough off base to cause me to comment to someone else that "you had no data", which si
