I currently have Snow Lion and have been converting my AppleWorks files to something that will not go away because of lace of support by Apple. I have converted to Pages what can be converted. I have purchased Bento and converted my database. Now I am left with all the things I made over the years in Paint, ClarisPaint, and Paint in AppleWorks. There are new programs available and I find some things will work in Sketchbook Express, and some in PaintBrush. However there appears to be little written documentation for Paintbrush and no Help. They just want you to use Forums which I often find frustrating. I have some things that are bitmapped made long ago but it is not clear if there is any program that handles that. I thought EasyDraw might help but it seems to lack the tools and is mostly vector based. There seems to be nothing that does what AppleWorks Paint does so simply except very expensive programs like Illustrator or Photoshop and I don't need that complexity. Just the ability to copy my file to the clipboard and paste it into a new file and then be able to make editing changes. Has anyone had success doing this type of conversion?
