Colors! is the first application developed by Jens Andersson. It is a digital painting application combining ease of use and powerful painting tools. It is based on modern painting techniques originally developed for drawing-tablets using desktop computers.
It has a clear color-selector and several basic drawing functions, there are also a few special effects such as mirroring the picture and watching an instant replay from the painting you create.
It was voted as one of the top 20 DS homebrews in 2009.
User guide
You can use up to 9 slots to save pictures and replay data as well on your flash-memory or SD card.
You can then retrieve the data on your PC to reuse or work with the data you made on your portable gaming console.

Changelog
v1.1b
- Fixed a critical bug where commands were not deleted from the .drw if you did more than one undo (or a mid-point playback).
- Fixed a minor graphical corruption where a very big soft brush cursor could display a faint square outline.
- You are now able to press Start when Colors! initially boot to go directly to the Canvas.
v1.1
- Unlimited .drw length - There is no more 1MB limit for those huge painting projects.
- Undo - A quick one-step undo, and better tools to be able to scroll through the playback of your painting.
- Improved latency and performance - Colors! is quicker and more precise than ever. Sketching has never been more responsive.
- Automatic full-screen pressure calibration - No more uneven pressure across the screen. It might even make your old throwaway DS usable again.
- Gallery integration - Browse, download, like and share directly from your DS using Wi-Fi.
- New UI - Cleaner, better, prettier. Just what you would expect from the most anticipated Colors! update ever.
- Export painting - Repaint your painting in 2x or 4x directly on the DS. It's slow, but it's worth it.
- Left/Right hand support - Configurate Colors! for left and/or right hand usage.
- One additional zoom-level - Get a better view of your painting by zooming out a step.
- New brush - A new bristle like brush that gives a more organic feel to your paintings.

beta2
- Added support for browsing and posting comments.

- Made the behavior on failing or returning from the gallery login screen more consistent.
