Hilary, Have fun! Unfortunately due to a recent explosion of newly acquired software, I haven't had a good chance to try out all of the new features. I wish that they did the color palette differently. I've seen better ways to do it on other HAM painting programs. -RSL-

Roy, I'd be interested in hearing what you don't like about the new color mixer. What in other programs (which ones) do you like better, and why? Thanks, Orlando/EA:MultiMedia

As an example, in SpectraColor, by clicking a tools expansion gadget all 4,096 colors are displayed in three squares. By clicking at the right point, you can select the color that you want, or you can move about to select slightly different colors. The closest that DP IV gets to this is the ability to mix colors together on a simulated painters palette inorder to get a new color. It would also be nice if DP IV had a default full palette for it's HAM mode. Don't get me wrong, it's a great piece of software, but nothing is perfect! -RSL-
