Hi there.
Great little flash app, I'm a bit concerned tho about stability after it crashed on me when attempting to save a simple doodle pic of 800x600 pixels to a JPG file. IE7 actually crashed on me suggesting the Flash plugin itself crashed.
Other than that, some of the very little things are sometimes most important and save from the little annoyances, eg tab ordering - You've implemented the tab key to move between text fields, but try using the tab key when creating a new picture. Type 800 for width, then try pressing tab to move to the height field...
Microsoft are notorious for breaking perfectly good little things between all their software releases, or otherwise ignoring any semblance of consistency between different releases, all in favour of bold, interesting new features, lets not go down this path shall we?!

Hey there, I love pixl.

A long long time ago, I used to love playing with things like filter factory, making simple filters from formulas, though most programmes eventually added their own native (and better) filters.

Even with a limited set of variables, you could do neat things. For instance, One of my most popular was halfwrap - a wee tool for checking if an image tiled. The formula was something like:
( (x+ X/2)%X, (y + Y/2)%Y )

basically this says replace each pixel (x,y) with the value of the pixel half of the image width/height away if the pixel, (X the image width, Y the height) if its past the right/bottom, start again from the left/top.

If this is just bewildering everyone reading it, sorry - its kinda hard to explain. I'm really just saying that as well as a API do a simpler limited feature filter designer API.

I would like to see the functionality of the Levels and Curves tools in Photoshop.
