[edit] Features

Listed from the back of the box.

• Complete selection of painting tools -- Draw any shape you want, any way you want.
• Turn any image into a brush. You can rotate, flip, shear, resize, smear, and shade it.
• 7 levels of magnification -- Paint in magnified mode if you want. Use variable zoom for detailed editing at the pixel level.
• 3-D perspective -- Move and rotate images in full 3-D, automatically.
• Use color cycling and gradient fills to create great special effects.
• Stencils -- Protect your designs from the slip of the hand or a bad idea. A stencil masks your image so you can paint "behind" and "in front of" it.
• Use the handy Move Dialog to animate brushes in full 3-D -- automatically! Ideal for creating spinning titles for low-cost videos.
