You may have heard of ArtRage, a cheap and intuitive painting app for both Mac and Windows. Version 2.5 just landed, and it has an impressive list of new features and improvements.

Precision-obsessed artists will appreciate the new Stencils and Rulers: these new tools let you draw and position objects with architectural accuracy. Layers also got a lot more versatile, adding the ability to group layers, copy and paste between them, and move, scale and rotate their content.

The list just goes on, but a few other capabilities are worth a mention: you can now zoom in using your mouse’s scroll wheel, the application now stores its entire resources in an app bundle, and it includes an internal updater.

Overall, the update is an impressive one for a point release, and you can update your copy by visiting the download page. Remember, the full version costs $25, but a free, stripped-down version is available.
