Thanks for the feedback. I could see all of those features being useful and integrating well into the rest of the app, though setting up edges to work within might require a bit to…

Glad you like it! Straight bold/thin lines really aren't possible with the default calligraphy brush. There's a marker tool if you open the brushes menu which just does unshaped, s…

No it can't, more than it is already at least. I'd definitely put Paper by 53 in the top spot for drawing feel on the iPad though by a fairly wide margin - second to Sketchology :D…

Having recently taught myself to draw (somewhat) I know where you're coming from. From a design perspective this is a super challenging problem though. I actually spent a while try…

Well no, I could never say that there isn't tremendous benefit to being able to use multiple tools in a workflow and have control of your data. Lack of SVG export isn't due to want…

Appreciate the feedback - at the very least though it's better than the development version: http://s3.amazonaws.com/sketchologyapp/static/img/old-icon.p...

The first 6 months or so of development were on Windows/Linux, so cross platform compatibility is something I've always had my eye on. I can't say when though, in all honesty an iP…

Thanks! I want to talk about it - I think it's probably the coolest part of the program. It's difficult though, I left my job about 2 years ago to work on this so commercial succes…

Definitely :) - Even getting this to run on the iPad 3 was a lengthy adventure in profiling. I wish I could have hit the 1, but it just wasn't meant to be.

It's fully vector but you cannot export to SVG or any other open formats due to the performance difference between Sketchology and other vector apps. (More than 100x even against x…

No unfortunately. While it's fairly trivial for me to support, the performance difference (a factor of more than 100) between Sketchology and other vector drawing apps makes it imp…

It's free to download and use, though to unlock all the tools (about 50% come standard) there's a one time IAP for $5

I'm sorry, I certainly didn't mean to say you were actively asking for app developers to collude on price. Rather, that is the conclusion I drew following your arguments about app …

I don't know - the underlying argument here, that developers need to avoid a race to the bottom isn't particularly new, new to Microsoft [0], or in my opinion convincing. This arti…

For me, the curation of the content, and quality of the item thumbnail previews really make this site for me, and I really hope both continue as you expand in content. Especially f…
