version 2.5, 15 May 2012 - Greater Flexibility + Joomla!

To simplify using My Coloring Book on Joomla sites, we've created a new Joomla component. 

This required more flexibility in where My Coloring Book stored coloring pages, and how it got configuration settings, and its licence.

With the new version, you can give the coloring book a folder name, a file name, OR a URL to use for the configuration and the licence. This means you can dynamically create the config, for example.

A new parameter in the config file also tells My Coloring Book where to look for its coloring pages.

There is are also extra settings to control the transparency of parts of the interface.

version 2.4, 3 February 2012 - Allow PNG for Save / Custom

The latest version of My Coloring Book adds the ability to save image in 24-bit PNG, and to also use 24-bit PNG for custom add-ons. 

There is also a new setting for JPEG compression, improvements to dialogs, as well as other improvements and bug-fixes.

IMPORTANT: Because there are now 2 different file-types that can be used for saving, the labels which were previously called "dlgSaveNotJPEG" and "promptSaveNotJPEG" are now called "dlgSaveWrongType" and "promptSaveWrongType" (respectively).

version 2.2, 15 October 2011 - New Text Tool, and more

The new Text tool lets kids type text onto the coloring page.  A fun addition, perfect for turning a coloring page into a greeting card.

Other changes...

• If coloring has been done, prompt before changing pages, or closing.
• Tool options (like brush size, font, etc) only show when applicable tool is in use.
• Additional keyboard handling (e.g. Ctrl+Z = undo).
• Warn if file saved without JPEG extension.

A number of the changes require new config options.  See the updated General Configuration article for details.

version 2.1, 1 September 2011 - Print Caption

The new version allows you to stamp coloring pages with a caption when they are printed.  See the updated General Configuration article.

You can also specify a minimum margin for the printed picture.  This can be handy if you are using a virtual printer, such as a PDF writer.

It also fixes up the palette so that it expands and contracts if you configure it to have more or less colors than the default (64 colors).
