testing art sites + a few apps and giving my HONEST, UNFILTERED OPINION.

CH3SI

I've been in a DROUGHT of art sites.
like, the desert... but DRIER.
uhh but I had an Idea...
"What if I test art sites, Whiteboards, and some art apps!!"
so, i did.
im running out of ideas...
BUT, here's the gist. I draw something dumb, and we see how good it is!!! :3
NOTE: I USE MSPAINT FOR MOST OF MY COMPUTER ART, SO THIS MAY BE BIASED

the whiteboard sites... sigh

i had little hope for these, but they performed better than i thought!!!

1: Figma.

I had little hope for Figma, as it gave me a ONE HOUR TIMER before it killed my art being saved... but it saved itself.
custom colors, good overlay for highlighters to make reds and oranges, a GOOD image upload system, it came with greatness for how little time it gave!
9.5/10

2: Excalidraw.

This is a GREAT site to draw with your friends! (that's why you see the other doodle in the top)
but, there are drawbacks. Depending on what mode you're on (light or dark) colors change! so this lovely drawing of the old 007n7 avatar looks weird to my friend who uses light mode!
8/10

3: Whiteboard fox.

there are things that are good! base whiteboard fox is not one.
if i had premium, i'd be cheering!
but i dont.
for the free version, you get very few colors, no layer use, and limited brush sizing!
though it IS good for collab art... but not the best.
:(
5/10.

4: Web Whiteboard.

Web whiteboard has a save timer, like Figma, BUT, butbutbutbut! Web whiteboard's timer is 24 hours!
I REALLY liked this one. I found out they had layers later into me testing this one, but even before that, it was...GREAT!
they had custom colors, for FREE, unlike whiteboard fox...
custom highlighter colors, custom sizes for brushes, it has a LOT.
and i like it for that!
9.5/10

THE ART SITES... gulp

let me just get the worst out of the way.

1: Sketchpad.
It was so bad (IN MY OPINION), that i couldn't even properly draw anything without getting mad.
custom colors? sure!
brush sizing? uh huh!
tons of brushes? yep!
but layers? they're one per brush stroke.
too much clutter.
i hate it.
it COULD be better to some, but not me.
-1/10

2: Kleki
oughhh kleki i love you so much your so good...

ITS AMAZING.
it's useful for newgen digital artists!!! (trust)
you can use it on switch, mobile, and desktop/Laptop!
layer settings are peak, they have a GOOD lasso brush, a mirror tool for both x and y axises, and have a simple interface!
10/10!

3: MSpaint...
(THIS MAY BE BIASED!!!)
i LOVE this.
sure it's basic, and artists complain abt it, but it's my MAIN ART SITE for computer art!!!! :3
10/10!!!!

4: WigglyPaint

simple, but fun! ts is too silly...
uhhh [censored] what do i say... uhm... custom 3 colors are cool/gen
erm... 9/10

5: KRESKA

this one is GOOD. it reminds me of ibispaintx, but cooler ig..? (bc the freeness on chromebook/my main device) i like having halftone brushes... too... (im too tired for this.)
they have mirror for x and y axis, sketch brushes, and have pressure/brush speed...
uhm.. 9.5/10!

6:IbisPaintX
my GOAT.
I use this for my mobile art!!!! :'3
good stabilizer, though it is getting annoying with ads,
great brush making ability, though i do wish they didn't change the free brushes to 4 hours.
8/10

I need to get this outta my drafts.
i eat soap.
