When you have a limited computer crunch budget, the ambitious programmer needs to get smart. I hail from the days when computers maxed out at 4, 16 and 32 Kb, and we still managed to get some seriously fast, powerful things done. The entirety of "War and Peace" fits into 3.2 Mb as a text file. And, here's the thing, it does them faster and better in nearly every case.Īnd why not? A megabyte is a LOT of space. And yet it offers all the standard super-powered features of those larger programs. exe between some of those random mystery files in ClipStudio Paint (CSP) or Photoshop's (PS) program folders and not even notice it. Weighing in at just over 5 Mb, it is almost not even there by comparison. Now one of the seriously awesome things about SAI is that where Photoshop and ClipStudio Paint and other developed art software packages are simply massive programs, usually well in excess of 100 Mb and even sometimes pushing into the gigabyte range, SAI is incredibly tiny and light on its feet. (I dug out my old license and it works! -If you don't have a license, you can't import or save files, but you can still play with the software freely.) And it has come a long way since the last time I looked a it! It's fresh! -Quietly published only a couple of days before the New Year celebrations rang in 2018. You can download the free technical review copy here: I made some discoveries while exploring the latest review version of Paint Tool Sai 2.
However, for those of us who DO draw a lot with electronic styluses., I think this post offers some pretty coolio insights I just discovered! A quick word to the wise: This post is intended for digital arts geeks, so it might be a teensy bit over-technical for those who don't spend a lot of time working with Wacom Cintiqs, -or the variety of alternative computer drawing boards out there.
