The app includes a range of default presets for every tool, and you can easily create your own specialized custom presets.

Smear and blend thick oils on the screen, sketch with pencils and smudge the strokes to create gradients, work like you would on canvas or paper.Įach tool includes settings that mirror real world properties such as Paint Thinners, Pencil Softness, and other familiar properties. When I try to pull the selection marquee down below the bottom of the screen, it doesn't go any further, and there's no option to manipulate your picture while viewing it at a smaller size.What exactly would a typical OSX beginner be expected to use if they wanted to make basic bitmap manipulations without downloading anything from the internet? I believe that Preview has some basic annotation/drawing functions.ArtRage for Android is a realistic painting and drawing app that gives you a toolkit filled with tools that work just like the real thing. Just give me a sheet of white pixels and let me paste stuff on them!The only thing I dislike about MSPaint is that you can't make a selection larger tan your screen.

With things like Photoshop, you have to start futzing with layers and it can be extremely complicated to a beginner.
