This update is, again way overdue, since the last one (Dec 20, 2023) and brings a lot of quality of life improvements and small fixes.
This is everything I worked on since then, finally released.
LAST STABLE
Updating a productivity tool is always scary (especially when you are sick), because if it breaks you just can’t work anymore. To prevent that there is now a new branch on steam “last_stable”. So you can always switch to the last PEBI version to continue working while I fix whatever was broken.
You do this like you would switch to the development version.

Emote Display Maker
The Emote Display Maker got another big update, especially for GIF's.
You might have guessed it, the top-banner with Vanlau's overly cute art is made with it.
More options to cut and control frames, including the long overdue animation reset option, to bring your animations into sync.
You can get "Your Own Character" from her til Jan. 1. 2025.

Quickly create art vs artist images for social media.
