If you were shipwrecked on a deserted island with only one book, you'd want it to be this one... as long as you arranged to be shipwrecked with a comfortable chair... and perhaps some decent red wine... oh, and a pair of slippers...

GIF Construction Set Professional 10 Revision 3

GIF Construction Set 10 has been updated. This release:

  • Updates the File menu recent documents list to optionally fetch its thumbnails from the Windows thumbnail cache. This allows it to open way faster, even if the pictures being referenced are really, really big.

  • Updates the primary PNG libraries used by GIF Construction Set to the latest release. This addresses several potential security and image quality issues. We urge all the users of our software to keep it up to date and stay ahead of file vulnerabilities... there are some really bad people hiding under rocks as you read this, doing everything they can to ruin your day.

  • Speeds up Animation Wizard.

  • Further enhances the sneakiness of the validation logic to reduce the likelihood of GIF Construction Set un-registering itself and thereafter deciding that its key is already in use because Windows 10 has silently updated something. Hopefully this one nails the problem until the end of time. Yes, we said that last year too, but Windows 10 proved to be sneakier than we'd anticipated.
  • Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with.
         
  • Updates the documentation.

e-Paint 10 Revision 2

e-Paint 10 has been updated. This release:

  • Updates the File menu recent documents list to optionally fetch its thumbnails from the Windows thumbnail cache. This allows it to open way faster, and to banish forever the blue check mark graphics that indicated that the pictures being referenced were really, really big.

  • Updates the primary PNG libraries used by e-Paint to the latest release. This addresses several potential security and image quality issues. We urge all the users of our software to keep it up to date and stay ahead of file vulnerabilities... there are some really bad people hiding under rocks as you read this, doing everything they can to ruin your day.

  • Addresses several metrics issues in the shape tool. Yes, you sleep through high-school geometry at your peril.

  • Further enhances the sneakiness of the validation logic to reduce the likelihood of e-Paint un-registering itself and thereafter deciding that its key is already in use because Windows 10 has silently updated something. Hopefully this one nails the problem until the end of time. Yes, we said that last year too, but Windows 10 proved to be sneakier than we'd anticipated.
  • Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with.

Graphic Workshop Professional 10 Revision 4
(second notification)

Graphic Workshop Professional 10 has been updated. This release:

  • Updates the primary PNG libraries used by Graphic Workshop and its ancillary applications to the latest release. This addresses several potential security and image quality issues. We urge all the users of our software to keep it up to date and stay ahead of file vulnerabilities... there are some really bad people hiding under rocks as you read this, doing everything they can to ruin your day.
  • Adds EXIF support for PNG files. You can view EXIF metadata stored in PNG graphics, remove it with the Secure EXIF option of the browser right-click menu and modify it using Graphic Workshop's amazing internal EXIF editor.

    You can also have EXIF metadata — such as your camera settings and your GPS location — preserved when you convert between JPG and PNG. See the section of the Graphic Workshop manual document that deals with EXIF for more about this.

  • Fixes a problem with The UltraLight Screen Clock that could cause a warning to be displayed when the clock started, depending on your build and configuration of Windows.

  • Addresses a problem with the file rename function of Graphic Workshop's browser windows, which hitherto refused to accept commas in some circumstances.

  • Updates Archive Manager to improve a number of user interface elements, and to correct several kind of embarrassing spelling errors.

  • Adds an option to Graphic Workshop's configuration to allow the image resizing filter used to display zoomed thumbnails to be specified — see
    ThumbnailZoomFilter in the Configuration document. If you use the Zoomed Thumbnail browser mode and you want to maximize its image quality, select a filter option that best suits the graphics you work with and the typical state of your eyes.

  • Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with.

  • Updates the documentation.

If you haven't installed Graphic Workshop Professional 10 yet, you might want to review a more extensive list of its new functionality and enhancements.
