Google Hamony.



I just did these drawings in three minutes using one of Google's experiments called "Harmony" it uses another Google experiment called "Canvas" and html5. It looks a lot like a great free vector drawing program I got awhile ago called "Livebrush Lite". Harmony has more of a hand drawn feel than the vector output of Livebrush Lite. I cant say which one is better they both have their cool points. Livebrush is an Adobe Air application and has a lot of built in customizable options that tweak and help you create your own brushes and filters. Harmony is a web browser based program that needs the latest versions of Java script. HMMMMM? maybe that's why I feel like i have been getting around three java script updates a day lately, thanks Google. You can also customize the brushes if you go in and know how to rewrite the code. If you create a cool one they might add it to the default set. It looks awesome and is tons of fun to play with and will make everyone think they can draw professional pictures. Wait a minute. I'm not sure if that's a good thing.... Remember when Photoshop came out and there were lens flares on everything.
