Project Dogwaffle Howler Editor's Review

Also known as DogWaffle, Howler is an excellent painting program with multiple capabilities and features that can make the difference. The program draws the attention through its numerous medias and styles, but also the simplicity. All in all, it is said to be worth a shot, but what do people actually think about it?

At a first glance, DogWaffle is clean and tidy. In other words, the installation will not try to enforce any third party applications and programs. Everyone knows that most of these programs are actually very problematic. The download and installation should not take more than just a few minutes, but it obviously depends on your computer and Internet connection.

Once inside the program, the simple interface is intuitive, but might pose some troubles to beginners. It seems pretty crowded at a first glance, but this is only a first impression. Each button has informative tool tips. Even if you are not familiar with painting programs, you can just grab a random picture and try everything on it, only to gain some experience. The toolboxes can be closed if they cover too much of your screen. If you want to open them again, you can do it from the View menu. All in all, its interface is just like that of Paint with more features albeit a little cluttered.

If this is the first time you use a painting program, you should know that some effects require various key combinations. Check out the help files and try to become familiar with each of them. However, the help files use a lot of jargon terms, so you may encounter a lot of difficulties while trying to understand what sepia or fading effects actually mean. Besides, some effects require various key or mouse combinations. Therefore, you might have to spend a while learning about them. DogWaffle only supports a couple of formats when it comes to image opening: BMP and Targa which is a real disappointment as both of them are not used as much as the other formats. Another major drawback is the fact that you got no video tutorials, which are extremely beneficial for amateurs.

Many other effects can be achieved from the top menu, since it is practically impossible to cover everything in just a few toolboxes. Yet again, you have to try each of them independently in order to realize what they do. The most enticing part about DogWaffle is the fact that you got access to a wide variety of medias that no other program has. For instance, the particle foliage or the animated brush buttons are very attractive. Plus, a lot of filters can be applied to customize each picture, whether you do it on a full screen or in real time.

When compared to other programs, DogWaffle comes with video tools as well, including key framer, rotoscoping or time line. Moreover, users also have the possibility to rely on 3D rendering. A little experience will give you the possibility to perform 3D rendering and then animate your result.

The memory consumption is more than similar programs, but it does not mean that you cannot run other programs at the same time. Although many similar programs use good amount of resources, it certainly has one of the highest resource usage and utility offered ratio and therefore it might not be too wise to open a few different design programs, a music player and a couple of browsers at the same time, if your PC does not meet the recommended hardware requirements.

Positive Points:
  -   Loaded with tons of features that even some paid programs lack.
  -   Video Editing and 3D Functionality.

Negative Points:
  -   Steep learning curve.
  -   No File Formats supported other than BMP and Targa.

Conclusion:
DogWaffle is a paint tool which is a little more than MS Paint, but lacks features which high-end image editors have. It is free to use and provides wide array of functionalities but the fact that it does not support many image formats is certainly a disappointment. It is certainly a nice option for users who do not deal with other image formats like JPEG or PNG. For users who want basic solution can stick with MS Paint and advanced users can use GIMP which is a good image editing solution as well.

Rating: 3/5
