Graphical Utilities

[Hrothgar]

I've been searching around for a utility to easily create graphics to put into bitmapped images in QB for use with PUT commands. I found pixel plus 256 and other programs like it which are great for sprites or tiles but only create images as large as 100x100 pixels and also only work in screen 13.

Any recomendations for similar programs that support larger images to use as pre-rendered backgrounds would be greatly appreciated.

For the QB bload format, you can use any editor, do a standard bmp, then use one of the qb programs that convert bmp to bload...
Here is one of them:

FreeBasic can bload standard bmp files so any editor is OK.
