README
================
= Introduction =
================
Splatterboard is a painting program. Its main goals:
* Provide interesting painting tools that engage people
* Make it easy to write new tools
* Get out of the way
So far, it mostly achieves those goals. There are a few bugs, but the basic structure is there, and it will be improved as issues are pointed out.
======================
= About the Stickers =
======================
Almost all of the stickers were taken directly from www.pdclipart.com, with the few exceptions drawn by Steve Johnson. The current stickers set is incomplete and doesn't really do what a good stickers set should do. In the future, stickers should have the following attributes:
* Augment creativity rather than inhibit it
* If very specific, be part of a larger set of stickers that go together
* Public domain
For example, if one were to make a sticker of a soda can, the inside should be completely white and as sparse as possible to allow the user to draw the label as desired. It should also probably be part of a larger set of food stickers.
Sticker wish list:
* Mad scientist laboratory: pipes, beakers, wires, science-y things
* Building kit: Basic building shapes that can be combined to make buildings or cityscapes
* Spaceship kit: Thrusters, lasers, cockpits, bodies
* Face kit: Think Mr. Pototo Head.
* Trees, rocks, etc
