RW Paint and Cursor Editor beta - April 2nd stream

Published by on April 2nd 2023.

Version 2023 of RealWorld Paint and RealWorld Cursor Editor is getting close. From now on, I will be working exclusively on fixing bugs and not on adding new functions. You can participate by downloading the latest version, testing it on your computer and contacting me if you find a bug - something that was supposed to work and did not.

Thank you so much Vlasta for willing to improve RealWorld Cursor Editor. Please make sure that you add all the cursor role wizards with multiple presets and settings so that users and I can make fully animated cursors quickly and accurately with an infinite amount of possibilities.

I want RealWorld Cursor Editor to be able to create, save and upload animated cursor files to the RealWorld Website with a maximum file size of 10MB instead of the 2MB limit.

If you can, please add more useful tools, brushes, shapes and coloring effects which are beneficial for the expansion of RealWorld Cursor Editor. I am asking this because RealWorld Cursor Editor is too basic, lacks too many features and was last updated in 2013, which is now 10 years ago.

Please update everything in this software.

Thank you, Vlasta.
