I am such a noob at Image Editing. Where do I start?? I need Photo Shop but who has the $$$$$

I have used this for close photos of just 4-5 anchors and for large zoomed out photos showing multiple 5 and 6 pitch routes across an entire formation and love the program. The undo/ redo feature really makes it work, as well as the ability to save the data layer separately. That feature alone makes this far better than doing this through regular photo editing software- I can open up my data layer and the original uncompressed photo and add new things or start where I left off, unlike those other approaches!
Fantastic array of icons, very useful for all sorts of applications. You have succeeded in giving to the climbing community and done very well, sir. Thank you greatly, looking forward to any other fine improvements! (can't suggest any at this time. It meets all my needs)

Very cool program for sure.

Got some press on climbing.com

Version 1.7.0 (10/27/09)
- Exported data files include original image data

This sounds pretty cool - unfortunately the install failed for me.
Excuse the plug but has anyone checked out wikitopo?

Hi Alma,
thanks for all the work, great programming!
I've got one question: I'm from Germany and I think a translated version would be a good thing for all the other German climbers. If you could send me the text-snippets you used, I will translate them as fast as possible.
And one minor feature request: A symbol for cam/nut-placement would be splendid.
Keep up the good work!
P.S. My Nikon saves images with .JPG instead of .jpg, and I think quite a few of other cameras do too. Could you make your "open"-dialogue accept images with .JPG?

I'm running Ubuntu Linux, so that might be the problem. It doesn't show files with .JPG in the "open file"-dialogue.

Hi Alma,
Are you still working to improve this program ? :o)
If you do, I've just discovered a problem for you to solve:
When I want to move around a "selected" feature, if the cursor crosses another element (a line or anything else) it looses focus.

Not a big deal, but I thought that this thread deserved a bump anyway...

Fun, cool program! I would love to see features for cracks, corners and aretes.

Probably unintentional, but has anyone else noticed that if you save a file with an object still selected the red highlight is saved along with the object?

I like it:



Just an awesome program. So much easier (and better) than trying to do the same in a standard photo editor.

Thanks!
