Piskel | ||
====== | ||

||
The goal is to create an easy-to-use/in-the-cloud/web-based 2d animation editor. | ||
A simple web-based tool for Spriting and Pixel art. | ||
|
||

29 May 2013 | ||
----------------------------------- | ||
Trying to wake up after a big 8 months nap. | ||
You can try the standalone editor at **http://juliandescottes.github.io/piskel** or see it integrated in **http://piskelapp.com**. | ||
|
||
![nap](http://screenletstore.appspot.com/img/68e1690f-c8a3-11e2-a431-13a291e88f09.gif) | ||
Piskel is mainly developped by : | ||
|
||
Also, new features : | ||
* color picker : ![color picker](http://screenletstore.appspot.com/img/18e24a63-c8a4-11e2-b479-13a291e88f09.png) | ||
* create an animated GIF from your piskel (uses jsgif, results may vary ...) | ||

------------------------------------ | ||
Just a quick update to post a new screenshot. @grosbouddha is delivering features so fast, it's hard to keep up ! | ||
## What's the point ? | ||
|
||
![Screenshot 4](https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17803671/screen_piskel_4.png "Screenshot 4") | ||
You can use Piskel to do two things : | ||
* create retro-style sprites for games | ||
|
||
15 Sep 2012 | ||
------------------------------------ | ||
2 weeks already since the last README.md update, and so many changes ! There has been a continuous stream of features added to piskel by @grosboudda, @captainbrosset (thanks guys) and myself. | ||
I can't list everything here but quickly | ||
* __Tools__ : in addition to the regular Pen, you can now draw Rectangles, Circles. You can move stuff, copy, paste ! | ||
* __Undo/redo__ : you can now cancel your actions using ctrl-z/ctrl-y | ||
* __Drag and drop__ : move frames around in your framesheet, using drag and drop | ||
![Megaman spritesheet](http://piskel-imgstore-a.appspot.com/img/c8081287-ac58-11e3-bd8c-b3c4036c0eee.png "Megaman spritesheet") | ||
|
||
And a screenshot, for the record : | ||
* create crazy/pretty/???? pixelart animations for fun ! | ||
|
||

|
||
30 Aug 2012 | ||
------------------------------------ | ||
Many new features in 2 days : | ||
* __save animations__, they are persisted in the cloud, and can be retrieved via a __unique URL__ | ||
* __color picker__, no longer limited to black and white | ||
* __local storage__, your work is automatically backed up locally | ||
* __color palette__, listing all the colors already used in the animation | ||
* __slider__ for choosing the speed of the preview | ||
Integrated in **[piskelapp.com](http://piskelapp.com)**, you can share everything you work on with others as easily as you share a link. | ||
|
||
UI was slightly updated : | ||
## Requirements | ||
|
||
![Screenshot 2](https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17803671/screen_piskel_2.png "Screenshot 2") | ||
Piskel supports the following browsers : | ||
* **Chrome** (latest) | ||
* **Firefox** (latest) | ||
* **Internet** Explorer 10+ | ||
|
||
28 Aug 2012 | ||
------------------------------------ | ||
Thanks to grosbouddha, new features added to Piskel : | ||
* modify preview speed ! | ||
* remove frames | ||
* transparent background | ||
... and a fairly recent computer. | ||
|
||
24 Aug 2012 (aka the thing I did last night) | ||
------------------------------------ | ||
* create small animations in __black__ (left click) and __white__ (right click) | ||
* and actually animations are always in __32x32__ zoomed 10 times | ||
* you can __not even save them__ ! | ||
* add new frames for your animation | ||
* do small __ridiculous__ characters | ||
We don't plan/want/could be forced into supporting older IEs. For Opera and Safari, we've just never tested them but the gap shouldn't be huge. | ||
|
||
Looks like this : | ||
![Alt text](https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17803671/screen_piskel.png "Optional title") | ||
## Built with | ||
|
||
**On the left**, the list of frames for the animation. | ||
**In the 'middle'**, the editable canvas. | ||
**On the right**, the LIVE-ANIMATED-PREVIEW (rocket science stuff going on here). | ||
The Piskel editor is purely build in **JavaScript, HTML and CSS**. It uses Canvas extensively for displaying all them pretty sprites. | ||
|
||
We also use the following **libraries** : | ||
* [spectrum](https://github.com/bgrins/spectrum) : awesome standalone colorpicker | ||
* [gifjs](http://jnordberg.github.io/gif.js/) : generate animated GIFs in javascript, using webworkers | ||
* [jquery](http://jquery.com/) : used sporadically in the application | ||
* [bootstrap-tooltip](http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#tooltips) : nice tooltips | ||
|
||
As well as some **icons** from the [Noun Project](http://thenounproject.com/) : | ||
* Folder by Simple Icons from The Noun Project | ||
* (and probably one or two others) | ||
