a fun little alternative to photoshop.similar layout.
I have yet to fully explore it's potential, but it is certainly handy for those situations where , for whatever reasons , you are photoshopless.....
as it is on-line and requires no download, it is also good for pc's that perhaps can't handle the more powerful programs.
in my case it has proved great fun at work, where it is impossible to install such things as ps, and is easy to click off-line if the boss comes in!

Had a quick play with and seems ok.

I was looking for something like this so I could stick with Linux, but i've given up and preordered Win 7 instead.

I might try and make a sig with it later and see how it goes.

Just playing with it now but it's either lacking a major function or I can't find how to do it.

In photoshop one of the most used tools for me is removing sections of an image using magic wand to leave a transparent area for the preceding layer to show through.
I cannot see how to do this in sumo, anyone managed to work it out?

If it cant do that then it's useless!

It works exactly as it would in photoshop, create a new layer, insert or draw whatever you want, and as long as you have a layer underneath erasing or wanding then deleting anything in the top layer reveals anything underneath.

Very interesting find btw, thank you for sharing.

Just tried it again and it works this time!
