Neat! I want this project to succeed.
A couple First Impression Experience pieces of feedback:
* when it first starts, how about a blank untitled document to play with, and maybe select a fun tool like the Bezier pencil as the initially selected tool. I was able and motivated to click around, realize there was no open document (probably the biggest stumbling block), create a new document, change the tool, and start playing, but many users won't be.
* it seems like a small thing, but please make the default canvas a bit larger (maybe 512 or 500 square). Again just more fun in that critical 10-20 second window, which is all most people will realistically give when checking out a new thing. If you can't hook 'em in that timeframe, they simply browse away and you lose a ton of folks.
Looks very good, thank you for sharing.
