RULES (updated 1/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

I made my desktop wallpaper with JSplacement before that project disappeared off the internet. The background is pretty boring because i wanted some color, but knew that i would rarely see it (I always have multiple layers of programs opened at all times)
My phone's pixel art wallpaper was made in photoshop (turns out that's a really bad program for pixel art)
Oh shit. I haven’t been working in 3D for aaages now, what happened to JSPlacement? I loved that little bugger.
I don't remember the full story, but it seems like the dev got fed up with feature requests/bug rapports so they decided to delete the source code and their online accounts.
looks puzzled
What functionality would you want that Photoshop lacks? I'd think that everything that one could want is in the "heavyweight" image editing programs. You've got user-specified palettes and color reduction to same. A single-pixel tool, flood fill, zoom, rectangular fill, layers. Maybe someone could have some kind of functionality to help with isometric stuff, dunno if it has that, but your image isn't isometric.

Maybe multiple views of the same image concurrently at different zoom levels?

No, it can apparently do that these days. Looks like GIMP can too.
Maybe showing a grid, especially at high zooms? I'm pretty sure that it can do that.
kagis
Yeah:

And GIMP can too:
https://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-concepts-image-grid-and-guides.html
I can imagine that maybe for sprite animation, there's stuff that could be added, but I don't think that that's what you're talking about.
