What's new in this version:

Added in 1.1:
- Fill tool completely rewritten, resulting in a significant speed gain
- Limited undo stack to 10 undos (reducing chance for memory overflow)
- SUBMITTED: Grid overlay now available
- Zooming image will not cause funny scrolling to occur
- By default, images created by Paintbrush will open in Paintbrush in the Finder
- Bomb tool animation can be immediately completed by pressing ESC
- Preliminary support for Shift key in Selection tool
- Text insertion uses front color, automatically opens font panel
- Color accuracy has been improved (now using calibrated instead of device colors)
- Added button to switch foreground and background colors
- Toolbox shortcut key changed to better represent functionality

Fixed in 1.1:
- REQUESTED: No longer uses wrong size when opening certain JPEGs
- REQUESTED: Second click on either color well hides panel, avoiding confusion
- Pastes in correct bottom-left corner when zoomed
- Changing colors during bomb animation will not change the color being used
- Undo no longer makes duplicates of image clippings when used with Selection tool
- Paste no longer occasionally places image in Toolbox instead of the document window
