Because the little tool windows get in the way too much!

He's afraid, because the current version of The Gimp doesn't export to any file formats (it seems). He's wishing he didn't have to visit my laptop to become a PNG.

Any artwork requests? I can easily outdo Rolf Harris you know.

I'm hoping I'll grab the title of "first song made on Pandora". :p

I suspect I will be beaten to it by whoever creates the music software.

Draw the pose-as-a-team picture of the team! It will have a nice bit of recursiveness.

Will give it a go :D

Oh man, I'm really good at this.

You should go for PROFIT! :D

are you painting with the stylus or your fingers?

Stylus. It's a bit laggy and glitchy so my artwork is slightly less quality than my usual work (which is world class, I have to say).

If you look very closely, you'll see it's actually not a photo!

So how much fun is drawing on the pandora?
Does Gimp maybe work better @850 Mhz?
How are you coping with the screen size, big enough?
Do you make a lot of drawing mistakes?

Oh, and: What about making a video of you drawing on it? :D

The first one would be much better if you spelled "Hellollo" correctly.
it was ed himself misspelling it in a younger video that causes these abominable misquotations by the uninitiated

:p

Excuse me young man, I was around for that video I'll have you know! Mis-spelling Hellollo is a meme in itself (in this spirit of Ed I did it by accident though).

Don't have a video camera, sorry!

Gimp doesn't seem to work any better at 850, no. The program itself seems to run at a decent speed but it lags every second or two (which screws up your strokes. I don't know what causes it. Also, because Ed set it up as hold-to-right-click on the stylus, I keep bringing the menu up by accident. Also, the floating windows get in the way so I just move them till they're almost off screen (and use shift-stylus drag to bring them back).

So yeah, it's not as fun as it could be... but it works!

It doesn't support any file formats yet and can only save in Gimp format.

Drawing mistakes: yes
Screen Size: Good

Also, having the Pandora laying flat and drawing on it is quite comfortable.

The weird mouse lagging may be the touchscreen driver or the XFCE mouse settings. It doesn't like being tracked around a lot.
