Hi! This 5-year anniversary release of Pixely contains multiple usability enhancements including: • Improved rendering and drawing speeds, especially when working with extra large canvases. • The line and rectangle tools have been updated so they can be used with a single, fluid drag gesture instead of a tap to start and a tap to finish. • Releasing your finger while previewing a paste will now paste the object automatically instead of requiring you to tap again to finalize pasting. • Dialog and menu animations can now be disabled as a preference. As always, please reach out by email or Twitter if you have any questions or requests, and thank you for using Pixely!

11.1: Fixed a bug affecting iOS 9 users who also use Dropbox. This release contains various bug fixes, the latest Dropbox compatibility updates, and a new Recent Colors feature -- you can now quickly view and choose from the colors you most recently used on your canvases. This new menu takes the place of the old shading tools menu, the contents of which are now accessed from Drawing Tools.

Hello again! This update contains big improvements to autosaving, including automatic reloading of your previous session if Pixely has been closed since the last time you used it. Also, palette files weren't keeping their organization when opened, so that's now fixed. Updates like this happen because users reach out. If there's something that you think could be improved, or more flexible, please feel free to reach out (or to report any bugs) at feedback@pixely.info. Thanks for using Pixely!

Hi, Pixel Artists! In this update you'll find... • Improved Selecting, Copying, and Pasting! - You can now change the color of a selection of pixels, instead of all pixels having a particular color. - Copied pixels are now shown in the edit menu. - One of the most requested features is now available: you can now preview pastes before they happen -- long press to see a preview of how pasting your copied pixels will look and then tap to put those pixels in place. - Another highly requested feature, you can now use your copied pixels to paste multiple times without having to go back into the edit menu. • Pixely now has a Palette & Bookmark Sync Tool! You can now manage your palette and bookmarks at the same time, which includes copying all colors from one source to the other with a single tap. • Lots of visual improvements, small and large, including support for iPad Pro 10.5". • iOS 11 Compatibility • General memory and performance enhancements, along with plenty of bug fixes. After almost four years, we still love using Pixely and hope you do, too! Questions or comments? Let us know by dropping us a line using the feedback feature in-app.

Hi! In this update to Pixely, the biggest thing you'll find is that each canvas now has it's own opacity! That means you can now change the opacity of individual layers when viewing your canvases in layer mode. Canvas opacities are also saved with your work, so you don't need to reset them each time you load an art file. In addition to this, you'll also find: -- A slight change to the UI to give everything rounded corners... it just looks nicer. -- The canvas grid doesn't lose its thickness as easily when you zoom out on larger canvases. -- A new thumbnail menu for the current canvas that sheds some light on some actions that were previously only available as gestures. Under the covers... -- Updated to the latest Dropbox API to support some changes Dropbox is making on their end. -- Several minor bug fixes. Feel free to reach out with any questions or comments (feedback@pixely.info) and thanks for using Pixely!

This release of Pixely contains interface and experience improvements in the form of a few new icons, a better layout, and improved workflows when opening the app and exporting files locally or to Dropbox. For those who use Pixely as an animation studio, you'll now find that the canvas stack is represented chronologically so that your oldest canvases/frames are on the left side of the timeline and the newest ones are on the right. Do you like Pixely and would like to offer a suggestion or two? Please reach out at pixely@pixely.info, on Twitter @PixelyApp, or on Facebook. And, of course, courteous app reviews are always appreciated! Pixely is developed as a side project and your feedback helps keep the updates coming along. As always, thanks for using Pixely! 7.1: When exporting to a file location that already exists, you'll be asked whether you want to overwrite that file or add a new file with a unique name.

Pixely is 4 years old! To celebrate, this update brings a few new changes that users have asked for: • All new file management dialogs. You no longer need to be in the save dialog to delete files and folders, and the load and save dialogs have finally converged into one interface where you can copy, move, and delete multiple files at once. (This was long overdue, sorry!) • The pencil tool now has a variable draw size -- you can draw from 1x1 up to 15x15 pixels in a single motion. • The "Show Pixel Outlines" setting has became "Canvas Grid Size"; while still letting you hide the grid, you can now enlarge it so you can visually group multiple pixels in one cell at a time, which is useful for sprite sheets. • Further enhanced the overall performance of the canvas renderer. As always, feel free reach out with feature ideas and suggestions. If you encounter a problem, or think something could be a little easier, don't hesitate to send a quick note, tweet @PixelyApp, or post a comment on the blog (www.pixely.info). Likewise, please consider leaving a rating or review to help out -- thank you!

- You can now choose to export all of the canvases that you've disabled if they happen to be the same size as the enabled ones. - Fixed a bug that occurred when pasting and shifting. - Fixed a bug where the canvas panel would automatically scroll after disabling a canvas.

5.2.1: Miscellaneous fixes including a couple for the palette editor and onion skin alpha when transparency is used. 5.2: Export UI enhancements, including a fix for exporting animated GIFs to certain destinations. 5.1: Handled a few bugs and added the ability to move the pencil draw/scroll selector by tapping a corner to anchor it. 5.0: After a long wait, we'd like to formally welcome you to a brand new Pixely! Just about everything has been improved in some way to make pixel art creation in Pixely the best it can be, and it could not have been done this way without the help of Pixely's amazing user base. Thanks for your emails! Here's what's new: • A brand new renderer! This new renderer can zoom out to an image-accurate 1x view, which the old one could not do, and does not have a delay when loading pixels from off-screen during scrolling. For the tech savvy, this one is OpenGL-based, but don't worry about battery impact -- it only refreshes when necessary. • A more polished UI/UX that adds a customizable tint color to the interface. We're partial to the "Pixely Purple" default, but the app tint can be changed via Settings and can be set to automatically change based on the hue of the current background color. Also, Pixely's new icons are brought to you by The Noun Project. • Tools and functions are now in fewer logical menus for a more focused experience when trying to find the tool you're looking for. Some features that were previously menu-based (resize, flip/rotate, shift) have been promoted to screens to make those features easier to understand and use. • Resizing, flipping, and rotating a canvas are now undoable actions. • In-Editor layering! Now, when you tap the thumbnail of the current canvas, a new canvas will be displayed using all of your open, enabled canvases as layers. You can then choose to add this canvas and whether to close all other open canvases. Finally, layers! • Did we say "enabled" canvases? Yes! Just like layers in professional photo apps, you can now disable a canvas by swiping left on its thumbnail. This excludes it from layering and animation operations so you can swap out layers/frames easily. • Re-arranging canvases is now accomplished by swiping right on the current canvas thumbnail and then tapping the thumbnail where you'd like that canvas to move. • An all new Art Viewer! It's bigger and it has all of your canvases in a timeline; you can also swipe down to exclude them as layers/frames, just like the editor, and swipe up to rearrange them. • If you use HSB coloring, you may know that some HSB colors can translate to more than one RGB color, and that image data is stored in RGB (many image editors assume you know this or ignore it). This used to mean that loading art you've saved previously could yield HSB colors that aren't exactly what you chose originally. To prevent unexpected value changes, HSB colors you select will now be slightly tweaked (usually +1 or +2 to saturation or brightness) to colors with a predictable RGB combination. This means that when you open saved art that you made earlier with HSB colors, those values will be exactly what you chose originally. • Speaking of coloring, new linear and randomized shading (burn/dodge) tools are now available! You can add or remove shade (brightness) from your pixels using your selected drawing tool. • Maximum canvas sizes have increased! iPad 3/Mini 2 and up can now edit canvases up to 2048x2048, while iPad Pro 12.9 can edit canvases up to 4096x4096. • Yes, iPad Pro 12.9 is now supported! • And last, but not least, recently loaded and saved files are now readily accessible from the file menu.

Animated images (GIFs, APNGs) can now be loaded and pasted in from iOS! -- When you load these, each frame becomes a canvas and you'll be asked if you want those frames to be automatically named and saved to a folder, so you don't have to do that yourself if you don't want to. -- Importing colors from one of these animated image types into your palette will now consider colors from all frames instead of just the first one. Also contains a few bug fixes around displaying Dropbox files when offline. Note: This will be the last release compatible with the original 2010 iPad.

- Fixes an issue where the first pixel of a line drawn with the pencil tool would occasionally not register. - Improved rendering speed of larger canvases. Note: This will be the last release compatible with the original 2010 iPad.

Changes to support iOS 9 and update our social links. You can now reach out at pixely@pixely.info or @PixelyApp! **NOTE** This will be the last version for the original 2010 iPad, which is no longer possible to support.
