    <UserNotes>Pixelformer
http://www.qualibyte.com/pixelformer/

  A bitmap editor, specifically optimized for creating, modifying, and converting small
and medium-sized images, such as icons, buttons, web graphics, sprites, etc.
  Pixelformer is faster, smaller, easier, more precise, and often more efficient than
large bitmap editing tools; at the same time it is more powerful and less limited than
classic simple icon editors.
  So you need to create, edit, crop, resize, or convert icons or other small images?
Pixelformer can help. Even if you prefer a sophisticated high-end image editor for
creating graphics, Pixelformer would be a useful tool for doing fast edits, final tweaks,
conversions, and optimizations.

  The main features of Pixelformer are:
 - no restrictive limits for image dimensions
 - support for different color depths up to 32-bit RGB with alpha channel
 - semi-transparent colors
 - multiple layer support
 - free-form masking
 - in-place supersampling
 - lossless target color depth switching
 - independent access to color and alpha channels
 - support for multiresolution icons
 - dynamic palette generation
 - multiple file format support
 - icon extraction capability
 - PNG size optimization
 - Vista icon optimization
 - alpha premultiplication
 - deep undo buffer

  No restrictive limits for image dimensions
  Pixelformer does not limit you to icon-specific image sizes. Practically, this means
that you generally would not need any additional software while making, say, an icon
from a multi-megapixel photo. Or you can actually edit large images when a more
appropriate tool is not available.

  Support for different color depths up to 32-bit RGB with alpha channel
  When using Pixelformer, you can always work in the 32-bit RGBA color space. If you
need another format, just specify the output color depth (from 1 bpp (monochrome) to
32 bpp (RGB with alpha channel)), and Pixelformer will generate the required bitmap.
Even some uncommon formats are supported, like 16-bit BMP, or 24-bit PNG with
transparency, or grayscale PNG with alpha.

  Semi-transparent colors
  In addition to semi-transparent layers and soft-drawing tools, Pixelformer allows
you to use semi-transparent (translucent) colors, offering more control over transparency
effects.

  Multiple layer support
  Any image in a Pixelformer project can be composed of an unlimited number of layers.
The layering greatly simplifies working with complex images.

  Free-form masking
  Using the selection tools available in Pixelformer, you can create a region of any
arbitrary form and use it for constraining the drawing operations or for manipulating
specific pixels.

  In-place supersampling
  With Pixelformer, you can draw at a much higher resolution than that of the output
image - the drawing will be instantly resampled and mapped to the output. This method
combines the benefits of raster and vector graphics and gives you antialiased but
still editable image, which can never be produced by classic 1:1 bitmap editors.
Supersampling also helps to make icons from images by simplifying separation of objects
from background and retaining a possibility to refine the result and align it to pixel
grid.

  Lossless target color depth switching
  Unlike a conventional bitmap editor, Pixelformer virtualizes the image color space
(the working space is always 32-bit RGBA). As a result, changing the color depth of
output bitmaps is very easy and non-destructive.

  Independent access to color and alpha channels
  Using Pixelformer, you can independently view and edit color and alpha channels of
your images; this feature may be useful for fixing edge artifacts in imported icons,
or for creating unusual blending effects.

  Support for multiresolution icons
  Ability to handle multiple sizes, resolutions, and color depths of the same image
is essential for a true icon editor or converter. Pixelformer allows you to work with
multiple image formats within a single workspace and then pack them into a single
ICO file.

  Dynamic palette generation
  Pixelformer frees you from having to worry about color palettes for non-truecolor
images - highly optimized ones can be automatically generated in real time.

  Multiple file format support
  At the moment, Pixelformer is able to import BMP, PNG, ICO, CUR, JPEG/JPG, TGA,
and PSD image files, as well as EXE, DLL, or ICL multiple image containers; BMP,
PNG, ICO, and TGA file formats are available for export. You can freely convert
images between these formats.

  Icon extraction capability
  Pixelformer can extract icons, cursors, and bitmaps from executable files and
ICL icon libraries.

  PNG size optimization
  Pixelformer includes a PNG optimizer, which finds optimal PNG compressor parameters
during export, and thus losslessly minimizes size of PNG image files.

  Vista icon optimization
  Large subimages in Windows 7 and Windows Vista icons can be PNG-compressed; the PNG
optimizing engine is able to process them, reducing the corresponding ICO file sizes.

  Alpha premultiplication
  When necessary, images containing an alpha channel can be exported from Pixelformer
with premultiplied alpha.

  Deep undo buffer
  Pixelformer efficiently compresses undo data, keeping a long history of operations
while maintaining a low memory footprint.
