        Graphic Workshop Professional 8 Revision 5 (new this week)

    Graphic Workshop Professional 8 has been updated. This release:

      * Addresses two vulnerabilities in the library underlying Graphic
        Workshop's ZIP archive functionality, CVE-2017-12858 and
        CVE-2017-14107, that could allow a maliciously-crafted archive
        to crash Graphic Workshop or its ancillary applications, or to
        possibly to execute arbitrary code. This affects a number of
        aspects of Graphic Workshop itself - which uses ZIP files in
        various contexts - and the Archive Manager application that
        comes bundled with it.

        This one's potentially very serious, and we urge all users of
        Graphic Workshop to update to this release immediately.

      * Updates the Channels filter in the View mode Filters window.

      * Fixes a memory leak in the e-Paint UltraLight Convert To logic.

      * Addresses a bug that could cause e-Paint UltraLight's document
        windows to flash when they were resized under some builds of
        Windows.

      * Fixes a Windows issue that could cause e-Paint UltraLight's
        document windows to appear disabled when some of the drawing
        tools were selected.

      * Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software
        developers never really stop meddling with.

      * Updates the documentation.

          Upgrades

    If you have previously registered or upgraded to Graphic Workshop
    Professional 7, you can upgrade to Graphic Workshop Professional 8
    for half the cost of a new single-user license.

    *
    NOTE:* If you're currently running Graphic Workshop Professional 6
    or Graphic Workshop Professional 7, we strongly recommend that you
    upgrade to the current release to address the ZIP archive
    vulnerability described above.

    Users of Graphic Workshop Professional 7 can upgrade to version 8
    for half price.

    While the half-price upgrade path from the version 6 software has
    expired, our upgrade e-commerce page will accept half-price upgrades
    from users of Graphic Workshop Professional 6 for the next two weeks.

    If you see a message therein to the effect that upgrades are only
    available for version 7 and 8, you can safely ignore it.

        e-Paint 8 Revision 2 (second notification)

    e-Paint 8 has been updated. This release:

      * Adds cursor tips to the Eyedropper and Flood Fill tools to
        display the numeric color value of the pixel under your cursor.
        This feature can be disabled in Setup if you aren't into numbers.

      * Fixes a memory leak in the Convert To logic.

      * Addresses a bug that could cause e-Paint's document windows to
        flash when they were resized under some builds of Windows.

      * Fixes a Windows issue that could cause e-Paint's document
        windows to appear disabled when some of the drawing tools were
        selected.

      * Updates the Channels filter.

      * Addresses several issues with the e-Paint Scrapbook.

      * Improves the solid color selection buttons throughout the
        application with a quick palette selection window - just hold
        down the Shift key on your keyboard when you click to select a
        color to see it. There's a complete discussion of this window
        and how it interacts with the primary Colors window in the
        section of the Reference document that deals with Color Selection.

      * Adds assistance buttons to the initial registration key windows.
        Click on the question marks if you discover yourself to be lost.

      * Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software
        developers never really stop meddling with.

      * Updates the documentation.
