Map Editor (fenics's Worklog)
Blahblah bloobedoo 
Update
- added support for multiselection in the open filedialog. So you can pretty much just select all the map files in a folder and it will load them all in the thumbnail bar.
- all types of map files are now properly imported; 8bit map files also load a color palette on the left to pick colors from.
- color picker added.
- importing of png images added.
- thumbnails are updated as you draw.
- creating new maps (just 16 bits for now)
Thoughts:
I've mostly been messing with algorithms to draw lines and stuff. I pretty much have a simple DDA line drawing algorithm now. Now I'm just figuring out how to draw thick lines rather than simple 1 pixel lines. Subpixel accuracy would be nice, but I'm not sure how to do that yet. Using a combination of the fraction data and the float brush width to determine pixel brightness?

Don't mean to intrude, but if you are making a nice graphics editing suite, why not also support editing different filetypes?
Drawing thick lines with AA, I would imagine you would first determine what pixels get changed and then alter them according to the distance to the line and the colour, etc.

I guess so. I'll work on that.
