[Tuxpaint-users] Tux Paint 0.9.25 has been released!

[Bill K. <nb...@so...>]

Happy new year everyone; I hope you're staying safe out
there.  This is just a brief note to let you all know that
a new version of Tux Paint has been released!

So far, it's been made available for:

 * Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 10; both 64-bit and 32-bit
   (installer EXE only, so far)

 * Windows XP and 2000
   (installer EXE only, so far)

 * Apple Macintosh; OS X Yosemite (10.10) through macOS Big Sur (11)

 * Android (version 5 Lollipop & later)

 * Haiku; both 64-bit and 32-bit

 * and of course as source-code (.tar.gz)

Many thanks to Mark K. Kim, Pere Pujal i Carabantes, Shin-ichi TOYAMA,
and Luc 'Begasus' Schrijvers for these ports.  Shin-ichi says he'll
produce some RHEL Linux packages soon, as well.

find what you need:  http://www.tuxpaint.org/download/


This new version includes many minor changes, as well as
these noteworthy ones:

 * export drawings "out of Tux Paint" (from the Open dialog;
   e.g. on a desktop/laptop OS, they'll be copied into your
   personal "Pictures" folder)

 * export animated GIFs (from the Open->Slideshow dialog),
   great for sharing silly animations on social media

 * Shapes tool offers the ability to expand shapes from
   the corner, rather than the center

 * improved Eraser tool (including finer eraser sizes)

 * larger on-screen keyboard (accessibility feature of the
   Text and Label tools) on high-resolution screens

PS - I've also come up with a "Privacy Policy" regarding
the Tux Paint website (www.tuxpaint.org) and the application
itself, and have posted it here: http://www.tuxpaint.org/privacy/
Feedback is welcome!
