Hello to all users of PD Particles who bought it here at GG, and especially those who already have added the free plugin called Penny Paint to their installation.

This is a free maintenance release for Penny paint, the Spline based drawing engine available as a free plugin to PD Particles (there's also a version for PD and PD Pro/PD Artist... they will be updated too in the near future)

- fixes a bug when the Penny paint window was maximized, it would crash when trying to fit the image to the window
- corrected the tooltips for the middle row of icons (viewing tools). They had tooltips inherited from the row of tools below.
- added the version number in the window title
- added 'Penny' to the tools window title (now: Penny Tols) to help differentiate it from the main PD Particles floating tools window
- when changing the 'Mode', you will now see the selected mode in the label of the menu button. Also, if changing between brushes, it can cause the mode to be reset and this too will now show in the Mode label

a few other misc. improvements / bug fixes may have been added too.

The free download can be found at thebest3d.com/pdp/downloads/penny.html

There's also a new link to the Penny paint user's guide, which is a work in progress.

Happy penny-painting!
