Hello, I''m working on a site that needs to allow a user to draw something using their mouse. I''m looking for something similar to MS-Paint, but in browser. I need the app to be able to use the image after they are done. Lightweight and simple are the most important things; can anyone recommend something that will work well with Rails? -Jer -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Simply said, at the moment, I know of no capable inbrowser drawing application. Maybe there''s some Flash component out there that can do it, that''s your best best to be honest.
