Mojave Paint

Let's talk about clipping masks.

Today's 1.6.0 release has a couple of big photography-related features: Quick Select and Photo Adjust.

In the last version (1.5.2) I added the Contrast group blend modes: Soft, hard, vivid, linear and pin light as well as hard mix.

Let me just say I love Photoshop, and it wasn’t easy to come up with this list.

The latest version of Mojave Paint (1.5.0) moves over to a 14-day free trial model.

I first heard the term "eating your own dogfood" in about 2000, in Gary Kimura's software engineering class at UW.

Many thanks to klotzbrocken for featuring Mojave Paint on RetroMac's list of recommended external apps.

I'm very excited to announce the latest version of Mojave Paint, now with much more powerful typographic options.

This is a big one!

My friend Eric has a house in Tacoma, a Sears kit home shipped in by rail in 1920.

As a paid user of Acorn 8 I always look forward to their release notes, and in the Acorn 8.6 release notes I saw linear interpolation for brushes and thought [in kind of a Jon Stewart voice] "maybe add to Mojave Paint?"

On Reddit there's about 100,000 posts asking "OK I built an awesome app, now how do I promote it?"

An estimation of the potential worldwide userbase of Mojave Paint, estimated Drake Equation style.

I purchased a weeklong sponsorship over at sixcolors.com, check it out at the top of every page: And as part of the package I get a sponsored "thank you" post both on the site and in their RSS feed.

I saw this post marking six years of basicappleguy.com and I thought it would be fun to make a similar graphic in Mojave Paint.

Too much snapping annoys me -- you're just trying to reposition something and it's snapping to midpoints and all the other objects on all the other layers.

These "learn Photoshop" tutorials really take me back to 2003, when I was doing continuing education at Shoreline Community College to learn graphic design.
