Comments
PixelPaint was definitely an interesting little program. Apparently there are spiral bound manuals out there for its various versions that would be neat to find. There are also several reviews of it in some old mags that can be found on Google.
Have included a review of PixelPaint (Manual Link above) which I've scanned from the "Australian Personal Computer", May 1988 (Macintosh Supplement). It contains some fairly high rez images which accounts for the largish 7 MB size. I left in some of the periods ads in too for interest. - 1 MB of RAM cost how much in 1988!?!
An interesting review of PixelPaint, which at the time of writing cost AUS$998 retail.
Edit (November 2014): I've moved the PixelPaint review to the PixelPaint 1.0 page, which is a recent addition and the correct version of PP for this review.
