Talk:Digital painting

message: digital painting does not mean imitating traditional painting.
you cannot compare apples to pears. digital painting offers much more variety than traditional painting. but it needs an artist to make it alive not a button or pen pusher. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.238.49.78 (talk • contribs)  16:49, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

: It's hard to find the link you are referring to because there are no footnotes. This style of bare referencing has been out of date for years. --Adoniscik(t, c) 00:34, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  New Image 

message: With all due respect to Kathryn Smith, I don't think her work is relevant to this article. If you look at her website and the explanation of her technique, it is more "photo manipulation" or similar to rotoscoping with a single image. Typically in the digital painting community this way of working is most often frowned upon. Here are some links I would suggest starting with:
http://forums.cgsociety.org/
http://www.goodbrush.com/
http://www.furiae.com/
Also, I don't understand why at the top it says "See also: Vector graphics" The only thing that links the two is that they are both art and created on the computer, and that's about it. In the category of computer generated art, they are miles away from each other.
:Agree. There are so much digital artists in the internet that there's no need for some examples, especially if these examples had no deeper information about the topic. I removed all links, except the one from devianArt 84.142.225.44 16:30, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: "Computer painting"

message: While superficially this seems redundant I think reading the articles concerned reveals why they both have a place. 
Digital painting as defined here is more akin to pictorial fine arts where computer painting (perhaps a misnomer) is closer to computer science. In the former an artist uses the computer as a painting tool, software and hardware are used that mimic and go beyond modern traditional (physical) painting while with the latter we have art generated from formulas, like fractal geometry, that are converted into visual information that has a pleasing aesthetic appeal but not the literal mark making of a painter. 
The resulting images are aesthetically quite different and the methods of production equally so.  Guthriej (talk) 00:48, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: 'Computer painting' vs 'Digital Painting'

message: The history section could be strengthened by acknowledging the key players in the invention of digital painting.
The article should include mention of Alvy Ray Smith, who along with Dick Shoup at Xerox PARC, created SuperPaint in 1974, and later Paint (8-bit, with color look-up tables) and Big Paint (24-bit and later 32-bit) at N.Y.I.T. Alvy Ray Smith is credited as co-inventor of the alpha channel. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvy_Ray_Smith
The Quantel Paintbox was the first commercially used painting application that featured pressure-sensitivity or touch-sensitivity. It was a huge leap from previous applications, and while it was not widely known outside professional imaging circles, should not be omitted from this discussion.

thread_title:  2 references? 

message: I fixed the problem with two sections called Reference. I also added text, with references, to section Sketchpad. I added several graphic tablet manufacturers because I didn't think it was right to only mention Wacom when there are so many alternatives from other manufacturers. I investigated the subject of graphic tablets for two weeks before I bought my first graphic tablet, and continued to research the subject for some time more because the information in wikipedia did not give me enough information. Wikipedia only mentioned Wacom and did not describe how a graphic tablet works and what programs they work with. After doing so much investigations I felt a need to complete the texts in wikipedia to simplify the choice of a graphic tablet for others with the knowledge and some reference links which I got a lot of help from.Roger491127 (talk) 07:34, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

I dug around the site for some time, still to no avail. Consider deleting this section if no one else can find it, either.

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: This article obviously needs some help - it includes information that is dubious or not specifically relevant to digital painting, places undue emphasis on specific topics/pieces of software, and has a paucity of good sources. I am doing what I can to fix the most glaring issues but I'm not at all a subject matter expert here. It would be great if someone experienced in digital painting could chime in and help steer this article in the right direction. I would think that the main emphasis should be on how digital techniques replicate those of physical/traditional painting techniques and whatever the implications of that are for the artists and those who appreciate it - some of what's here might actually be more relevant in other digital art articles.
