Development of QuikSprite is going very well so it would seem. With each Beta that I put out for the testers, I find more things to add and some things to make better. The list of things that I had to fix is currently empty and all that is left is any new options that I think of from now until I release it for public use. This project has taken up most of my life for a couple weeks, however. This weekend, I will be having a little "me" time. This will give my testers plenty of time to test the program on their spare time and get back to me with more bugs that they find, if they find any.
Here is a preview of what you might see in the final product. Changes are always happening to the functionality but so far the interface has remained unchanged minus a few additions. Depending on if I find a layout that I like better or not, this may or may not be what you will see..
When this is released, it will contain a few sprite pieces that I design myself however I am looking for artists to create a sprite-pack which will contain their own templates (nothing from a different artist because I don't want to get in trouble for providing someone else's hard work without their permission). These sprite-packs will be released separately for the user to download on their own. This makes it easier to give credit to the artist and to separate the styles. If you are interested, leave a comment in the comments section with a way to get a hold of you.
On another note, I added a donate link to the sidebar. This donate link will help pay the bills and help to keep me plugging away at this software and any future software. I will also add it at the bottom of this post for giggles because I cannot stress how important it is. While it is sad that I would have to resort to such things, trying to develop software solo is a time consuming task and despite it being a hobby of mine, it does take away from time that I could be trying to make money in other ways. As always, all donations are appreciated.
At any rate, have a wonderful weekend folks and remember to check back daily next week because I may be sneaking the release of QuikSprite on you when you least expect it.
