NAME

       gpaint - a small easy to use paint program for GNOME

SYNOPSIS

       gpaint [filename]...

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page briefly documents gpaint (GNU Paint), a small-scale painting program for GNOME, the GNU Desktop Environment. gpaint does
       not attempt to compete with GIMP, it is just a simple drawing package based on xpaint, along the lines of 'Paintbrush' from a popular  non-
       free operating system.

       gpaint is still work in progress and many features are still being developed. However, gpaint is usable and useful for simple image editing
       tasks.

FEATURES

       Currently gpaint has the following features:

       * Drawing tools such as ovals, freehand, polygon and text, with fill or shadow for polygons and closed freehand shapes.

       * Cut and paste by selecting irregular regions or polygons.

       * Preliminary print support using gnome-print.

       * Modern, easy to use user interface with tool and color palettes.

       * Multiple-image editing in a single instance of the program.

       * All the image processing features present in xpaint.

TODO

       Future plans include the implementation of zooming in/out, image scaling/rotation, and turning gpaint into a Bonobo  component  for  simple
       image editing tasks inside other programs.

NAME

       pixelize - Create an image consisting of many small images

SYNOPSIS

       pixelize

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       pixelize is a program that will use many scaled down images to try to duplicate, as closely as possible, another image.

       pixelize  works	by splitting up the image you want rendered (or duplicated) into a grid of small rectangular areas. Each area is analyzed,
       and replaced with an image chosen from a large database of images.  pixelize tries to pick images that best matches each area.

       Note: Before running pixelize you have to create an image database (a file called pic_db.dat) using the make_db(1) utility.

OPTIONS

       None.

BUGS

       Please report any bugs you find to Paul Wilkins <pwilkins@lashwhip.com>.

LICENCE

       pixelize is covered by the GNU General Public License (GPL), version 2 or later.
