The older ChibiPaint version (v1) has now been removed

[Nick]

The oldest version of the Java ChibiPaint Oekaki painting tool (v1) has now been removed, so the two available options are now ChibiPaint v2.0 (Java) and ChickenPaint (JavaScript).

All web browsers that still support Java (fewer every month) should be able to use the v2 version of ChibiPaint, or switch to our newer ChickenPaint editing tool.

You can edit your Oekaki painting tool settings on this page:

Why was it removed?

[Nick]

It is built for a version of Java that's so old (1.4.2) that it's practically impossible to build or test for that version any more. And that version of Java is both ridiculously insecure, and barely supported by any browsers these days.

The slightly newer "ChibiPaint v2.0" which is still available works even on Windows XP and Java 6, so there wasn't any need for an older version.

Ive been having issues with brush sizes, colors and basically anything that can be moved and selected! ;-; its been moving on its own whenever I try to move my pen away from it the bar/color moves with it! almost as if its not clicking... I have tried it on other sites, on firealpaca its working fine so its nothing to do with my tablet its more the paint! I have updated my computer, changed my cs paint type and also done another series of things to try and fix it to no avail! On top of this I have posted for help but none has been given ;-; its also been happening to other users. Do you have any suggestions?

Which browser and operating system are you using, and are you using Chicken Paint or the older Java ChibiPaint?

It looks like this is a current bug in Chrome that they are working on fixing:

In the meantime you should be able to use Microsoft Edge to draw!
