Scribbles drawing app

atebits has released the first version of Scribbles, an illustration program meant to ease drawing on a Mac; where most such applications are meant for professionals and semi-professionals, Scribbles uses a simplified interface that is suitable for kids as well as adults. It nevertheless replicates some more complex options, such as naturalistic stroke rendering, and a 3D layering interface. Tablet controllers are supported, and there is no need for a fixed canvas size, as a scaling technology will resize as necessary without pixellation.

Output formats are unspecified, but users should be able to save in "every popular" graphics format. The program runs on Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard, and costs $20 for a license; despite this, users can download it for free and use it as long as they like.
