Redesign The Classics With Tile Molester

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to the recent release of Tile Molester, which the author describes as "..a multi-format, user-extensible graphics data editor that lets you create, view and edit graphics in arbitrary binary files, with a particular focus on binaries for game consoles." It's written in Java, so "can be run on any platform that has a Java Runtime Environment installed", and the site gallery has some example graphics rips, including the often-ripped Zelda, and the less often hacked-with classic Deluxe Paint - other platforms thought to have editable data include Amiga, N64, and even Playstation.

About DPaint

[sICE]

When i switched from the Amiga to the PC, I really missed Deluxe Paint, I finally found a version for DOS. If you liked it too, there's a similar win32 version called ArtGem. Though it is discontinued and not available for download on RLVision website, googling around you can find mirrors for version 1.3.

From the developer:

"ArtGem is a fast and powerful allround image editor, similar to classic DPaint but with the quality of Photoshop. Use ArtGem to scan, resize, merge & retouch your photos, create graphics for your website or to draw icons, sprites and textures for game & multimedia productions. View pictures and convert between different formats. Includes hundreds of high quality imaging tools. Supports JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, BMP & 15 other image formats. Work with filters, selections, gradients & layers in the dynamic realtime interface.
