Generation of Prototype CC Images (don't know what to call it)

Hello,

I am looking to generate an image of a ComputerCraft Advanced Computer's terminal running a program, not by coding the program but by generating an image, either in a specialized program or regular old Photoshop. The reason I want to do this is for awsmazingOS, so that I can create an image of what a GUI looks like, run it by some people to get their opinions, and if the opinions are good, code the GUI into awsmazingOS. Some of the code is rather complex, such as for the Home Menu Dynamic Icon, so it would be much easier to create an image then to code it and decide that it isn't worth anything. If there is a specialized program to create these terminal images, awesome! If I need to use Photoshop, what sizes and settings should I use? (I have the Minecraft font as a TrueType font, that is not an issue.)

Essentially what I want to create are terminal images like this (actually in CC, from running GravityScore's Firewolf)

without having to code the program.

Instead of Photoshop, how about a fancy CC paint-ish program that lets you define the character as well as the color of each cell? Shouldn't be too hard, and would make pictures that looked exactly like what the final product would look like.

That is what I stated in my post, and yes, that would be totally awesome. Unfortunately I lack the coding skills to create such a program, and I don't expect to see one soon (I have Googled it). I would need adjustable terminal size as well as setting the background and text color and the text for each slot.

Ummm…. NPaintPro

It's deffinitly possible, nor is it too hard. I made one (they're a lot smaller but can be extended) in HTML 5 for the CCAppStore (I've decided that I will be resuming work on it very soon).

I probably shouldn't be doing this, but here's a link to the page on the site with it. Feel free to copy and modify the code if you want.

Although, as theoriginalbit said, nPaintPro.

I don't believe NPaintPro lets me change the text of the pixel…does it?

EDIT: It does, but that sidebar is in the way :(/> Plus painting in CC takes forever…

You can hide the bar. And there's things such as flood fill tools and such, start to make use of them! It would actually be quicker to make what you want in NPaintPro than ANY other piece of software on your computer!

OK, Thanks! I was also just thinking that I could just increase my Term size in ComputerCraft.cfg

EDIT: Works! Successfully pumped out this mockup image: (This is also the first public preview of awsmazingOS!)

Surprised nobody's mentioned Canvas, really nice paint program by Kingdaro.

Canvas looks good, but now I'm hooked on nPaintPro. (Thanks TOBIT!)
