Finally! I managed to put Qbesq online on qbesq.com
Since the beginning of this week (when it first went alive) I've got more visits than I expected, and it was featured on reddit.com hot page, on del.icio.us popular links, stumble upon and others...

I'd like to thank all those people who gave me nice ideas, comments, appraisal and positive feedback... I'll try my best to meet the expectations of a more elaborated version.

Until then, have fun with Qbesq ;)

Qbest is really really cool. The one bug I see is that after drawing for a little, the center becomes unstable, meaning, I'll draw dright near the center, and there is a small segment of screen oppositie to the side where I am drawing that never updates.

Besides that, awesome, almost commercially viable product, if you ever thought of going in that direction. For commercial use, or just any future enhancements, My top three requests, in order:

1)allow saving and opening of files, ideally in gif, jpg, and png.

2) dotted lines which can be used as guidelines when drawing. For example, if I am dividing the board into 24 sections, it helps me to draw exactly what I want to draw, if I can see where each pie slice stops and the next one begins.
These dotted lines should be in grey or black, and able to be toggled on and off.

3) Have some memory so that the application stops where I left it, so that if I were in the middle of painting some great masterpiece on a black background and large organce brush with 19 divisions, that is how it is when I come back, at least until a "re set" or "start over" button is pushed.

In any case, thanks for listening!
