Just a quick update to post a new screenshot. @grosbouddha is delivering features so fast, it's hard to keep up !

15 Sep 2012

2 weeks already since the last README.md update, and so many changes ! There has been a continuous stream of features added to piskel by @grosboudda, @captainbrosset (thanks guys) and myself. I can't list everything here but quickly

• Tools : in addition to the regular Pen, you can now draw Rectangles, Circles. You can move stuff, copy, paste !
• Undo/redo : you can now cancel your actions using ctrl-z/ctrl-y
• Drag and drop : move frames around in your framesheet, using drag and drop

And a screenshot, for the record :

Many new features in 2 days :

• save animations, they are persisted in the cloud, and can be retrieved via a unique URL
• color picker, no longer limited to black and white
• local storage, your work is automatically backed up locally
• color palette, listing all the colors already used in the animation
• slider for choosing the speed of the preview

UI was slightly updated :

Thanks to grosbouddha, new features added to Piskel :

• modify preview speed !
• remove frames
• transparent background

24 Aug 2012 (aka the thing I did last night)

• create small animations in black (left click) and white (right click)
• and actually animations are always in 32x32 zoomed 10 times
• you can not even save them !
• add new frames for your animation
• do small ridiculous characters

Looks like this :

On the left, the list of frames for the animation. In the 'middle', the editable canvas. On the right, the LIVE-ANIMATED-PREVIEW (rocket science stuff going on here).
