Already coding for the next version. So far I've implemented the ability to automatically take a screen shot after the painting has completed. Perhaps next it will upload to imgur? Any other feature requests?

So first I want to start of saying thank you for this awesome project and me beeing a part of the beta tester, thats awesome!
I've been testing this programm for like 1 day now and I can tell you some pro's but also some con's about it.
Pros:
- Very detailed:
I mean you can literally screen a website and paint it on to the signs! That is awesome. (That was obviously way over the head but I hope you get what I mean)
- Easy to use:
Personally I had no problems finding out how this programm works even without the tutorial. It feels very comfortable and is just so easy to use.
- The way it paints:
Its really cool seeing that its also using brighter colors such as bright blue and blue blue. The programm itself seems to be smart.
Cons:
- Time:
It takes so much time painting a picture this way. I do understand that the programm needs its time and stuff but it's still a con and should be mentioned.
- Colors:
The things I noticed is that the programm doesn't always uses the correct colors such as when I was painting the "Winter is coming cover" picture and cropped out the middle part with the black wolf & white background. The white background got nearly completly grey and it was trying to paint the background gray.
But all in all this programm is awesome and I'm proud to tell you guys that this is next gen shit.
Yeah my bad!
Here is the "gray thing" I was talking about
Handmade Game of Thrones sign (been a long time since I made this one, tbh it kinda sucks :D)
Programm made Game of Thrones sign (pretty detailed)
Okay, it happened again. I just started the program, loaded the image, and bam this happened. I know it can draw it better than that because I seen it load a better preview before. Thoughts?
Original :
Update: After I clicked on the default for the settings (even though the only thing that really changed was the default background color) the preview updated to a better version.
It has to do with how the image gets dithered. My suggestion is to do a fill on the areas where there is light purple and dark green. If you zoom in really close you will notice there are off colored pixels scattered in those areas. See: http://i.imgur.com/H4j8J7B.png
Alright, so here I am with my 2nd review.
This time I did "Geralt of Rivia" from "The Witcher" - Series and damn he looks hot.
But I discovered some kind of bug because I had to paint him multiple times.
In the end he did look like this.
But when I painted him the first time it just missed so many colors and left it white like this.
It also has some white spaces left in my end result but I'm more then satisfied.
I don't know what made it happen to leave this white, maybe because I dragged the paintable area into the border of the frame.
Oh and btw. I don't know why it is like this but I had to restart a couple of times because my Internet got interrupted and I got kicked out of the server but when I tried to start the picture again it always told me a diffrent time even with the same size.
And one cool feature could be that it automaticly updates the sign as soon as its done even if you have the "auto-update" function turned off.
But as I said in my first review this again is very detailed and I'm going to keep painting pictures and give you guys feedback.
One thing I have noticed, at first I used to also select the update and cancel in the palette selection portion and whenever it would try to select a shade of red it would cancel out of the painting and spin in circles as if it was still trying to paint. Another thing on sketches and things of that nature (like my profile picture on here) if actually can't draw stuff like that. It just makes a super shaded picture and tries to go deep into detail with it. Only two things I've noticed so far.
Hello Patrickk, you are not to include the Update/Cancel buttons in the Controls Area capture. Please refer to the tutorial or demo video for a more detailed explanation on this. Also, try using the Grayscale image tool before painting your sketch. After you load the image, right click and choose Image Tools -> Grayscale.
i have had a problem today where no matter what picture i choose it turns it into a greyish very light colour.then when it paints it only does it with a light shading of the picture barely viewable here is the the original and what it looks like the app http://imgur.com/a/H2Xzx
