Hi Andrew,
It's freeware so it's worth downloading and trying, that is for sure.
And if I did not have the opportunity to obtain BodyPaint when I did,
I would be probably looking at programs like Tattoo to see if it could
meet my needs.
But just out of curiosity I downloaded the program and plan to check
it out to see what it offers. ;)
Well,thanks again, for the link.
Cheers.
