1. the rotation slider goes from -180 to 180 degrees (earlier version was -360 to 360 and made two full turns, which caused loss of detail in the limited slider size)
2. there is a checkbox which controls the quality: Smoothing will be slower but result in slightly better quality when dealing with high contrast images such as thin black lines on white background. In earlier versions it was using the quick (non-smoothed) mode while dragging the slider and then did a final render with smoothing. It was not possible to use the filter without the smoothing side-effect. Since it is not always desireable to actually smooth the image, we felt it was best to leave this choice to the user.
   
3. there are 4 new buttons around the Reset button which allow you to finely move the image, in 1-pixel increments
4. there are also 4 buttons for increasing and decreasing the scale and the rotation angle. The angle changes in increments/decrements of 1 (degrees). The scale changes in increments/decrements of 1 if the current size is 100 or less. If the current size is over 100, increasing the size is done by a factor of 1.05, decreasing is done by decrementing 1. This allows faster and 'consistent' upscaling combined with very fine tuning the size by decrementing in single units.
   
5. there are text boxes where you can enter the desired angle or size. Note that the size is interpreted as a percentage of original scale. 100 is the default. 200 would make it twice as big as the original
   
6. You can use the text boxes and the fine-tune buttons to go beyond the bounds of the slider's limits.
7. The minimum size is 1 (meaning 1/100 or 1 percent of original size). The maximum is 99999999 (meaning 999999.99 times the original)
8. The minimum rotation angle is -99999999 degrees. The maximum angle is 99999999. Attempting to go beyond will cause the angle to be truncated 'modulo 360', i.e. reset to close to zero  but same angle.

1. Double-click the plugin from the Plugins folder
2. Select the AVI file
3. It will tell you how many frames it found in the file, and what size it is (width x height in pixels)
4. You can also select a subset: it will ask you to select how many frames you want to actually load (with a slider). By default it's the whole AVI file, i.e. all frames
5. After completion you may want to store the newly created animated custom brush:  Menu -> Store & manage...

• SwapRB_pf.exe
• SwapGB_pf.exe  
• SwapRG_pf.exe 

• SwapRG  leaves the Blue channel alone, swaps the Red and Green channels
• SwapRB  leaves the Green channel alone, swaps the Red and Blue channels
• SwapBG  leaves the Red channel alone, swaps the Blue and Green channels

This is the rewritten source for the DWA(Dogwaffle Animation) animation viewer. It reads the frames and displays them directly from disk, without preloading the whole clip. We're making the source public domain (but not the actual viewer, since it relies on the Penny dll).  You can re-build it without the Penny dll, in which case you'll have to find your own routine for getting the pixels onscreen, or you can use the slower 'Pset' method that is commented out in this source code.  If you don't need to display the frames, and just want the load routines, you're all set.

It's written in VB5. Should compile in vb6 with no problem.
