The most significant improvements with Version 1.1 of Liquib are the ability to Upscale effects to produce high resolution images, and a powerful new Scripting feature.  Several new capabilities were included as a result of thoughtful ideas from customers -- your suggestions are always welcome and much appreciated!  Here is a summary of Liquib 1.1 enhancements:

• The Upscale function is available when the current source image is larger than the screen size.  Manipulations can be performed conveniently and efficiently on an image scaled to fit within the main Liquib window.  Then, when an interesting picture develops, the Upscale Window can be used to recreate and display the image at the resolution and quality of the original source image.  The Save With Special Options screen provides additional choices for saving images at full-scale.
  

• A new Melt Effect emulates paint runs, causing image segments to elongate and slowly sag downwards.  A single click begins a single large Melting spot, while clicking and dragging the mouse creates a line of smaller 'Drools'.

• Two new Pull Types are available for the Stylus and Comb Tools.  The Expand Pull Type enlarges the image under the cursor's path.  The Compress Pull Type has the opposite effect, appearing to squeeze the image as the Tool passes over.

• Also for the Stylus and Comb Tools, a Colorized Tracks option has been added.  This produces changing colors along the path of the cursor, with the intensity of the colors proportional to the distances that pixels are displaced by Tool strokes.  A Color Set choice controls the shades of generated colors.

• Keyboard Command hints can optionally be shown next to the corresponding buttons on the Liquib Tools panel, and below the buttons on the Edit Tools panel.  Type the 'Y' key to toggle on/off the appearance of these hints, and a Show Keyboard Commands option now appears in the View Menu.  Keyboard shortcuts have been added for most common commands.

• A dynamic Scripting feature provides the ability to record and replay sequences of Tool and Effect actions, allowing a sort of choreography of manipulation and motion.  Recorded Sequences can be saved to files.  A Script Control and Editing screen provides options for loading, saving and editing Script files and Recorded Sequences.  The Automatic Effects Configuration screen has been revamped to provide options for playing Scripts during Automatic Effects.

• The Audio Player now includes a Random option, which plays Play Directory Audio files or CD tracks in random sequence, rather than sequentially.  A Random Sequence option is also available in the Automatic Effects Configuration screen to choose music randomly during Automatic Effects.
