Well, you're right! I just checked and DPaint does reset the page size
when you load an anim. Pretty stupid, if you ask me.
But I found that I could create a 352×440 anim by 1) having the individual
pics on disk, named 'test.0001' … 'test.0030' (ie. alphabetical order,
the way DPaint likes it). Then go to the load file requestor, and type in
'test.0001' as the file name, and type in 30 for the number of frames to
load. It then asks you if you want to reset the page size to 352×440, same
as the file. Say 'yes' and it will create a 352×440 anim for you.
At least that way you can bring the pics you save individual files from
within V3D, and make an anim with them, and alter them, in DPaint.
(Of course for resizing, etc, you should check out ADPro, which will allow
you to resize, crop, reduce colors, optimize colors, generate gray-scale
and line art, etc, etc, etc. —- but you've been overloaded with product
names already!) Have fun. –jp–seattle–
