[QUOTE="MarioMover, post: 1679428, member: 338894"] Hello! :D On my Mac side of my MBA, I run this nifty little app known as Paintbrush. I use it to make sprites and [I]Minecraft[/I] textures. However, I don't want to have to reboot in to a different OS, nor do I want something like VirtualBox or Parallels to use it. I want to be able to use a similar app on the Windows side of my laptop, where most of my gaming things stay. What's the closest alternative to this? Paint is very similar, but lacks a core feature that I need - transparency. I need to be able to give an image a transparent background, or wherever the space that the sprite doesn't use is. I also need features like the "Image Size" and "Canvas Size" shown in Paintbrush. I use these commonly as well, combined with a decent "copy-paste" function and ability to work with .PNG files. I will link Paintbrush here so you can check it out for yourself: [URL="http://paintbrush.sourceforge.net/"]Paintbrush on SourceForge[/URL] Thank you for your time and patience, I really appreciate it! :D -MarioMover [/QUOTE]
