how does this program compare to draw?

+ Has a GUI - which is ncie but could use a lot of improvement
+ Random lines rarely pop up while you draw
+ You can set the Opacity/Alpha of your tool
+ An EXCELLENT Zoom function which lets you make some really detailed pics
+ - Nice RGB System for making colors. but a palette like the one in Draw wouldn't hurt
- The smudge tool doesn't seem to be as good as that in Draw
- The Pencil tool doesn't make nice, clean lines it's rather pixelized
- There is no Eraser, though this is no big deal

? The paint bucket seems better than that in Draw, but I don't use this much in either, it could be worse

Also here's something I drew earlier today

Overall, it's better than Draw3 but it could use some more work and tweaking, a few more tools and a different GUI would be great.
In fact I think the guy that made Draw and the guy that made Phidias should join up and make one awesome drawing program together.

EDIT: G6 Lite users, you should have no problems working with high-res pics or saving on your G6 If you:
Upgrade to Firmware 4.7
Use Phidias.sc.nds and patch it with the latest DLDI patch: 0.17

hmm, it seems that the drawing behaviour newest version of phidias feels different to the one before the neo competition,

the older version
could not zoom,
could not load,
is unable to choose resolution,
but the drawing mechanics felt alot better, i prefered the smudging blurring tool as well,

I can't get this to work on my M3 Perfect for nothing inthe world.

Runs fine on my Simply though.

Anyone get this working on their Perfect?
