  @jo Yes, right now I'm working like that, but I would try to avoid this solution in particular, since I consider it as not Pythonic and "proper"

  @frederik Sorry for the late reply, I've been on vacation for a while. It's a little rusty after so many days The main focus lays on "main_pool()" "multiprocessing.Pool()" creates, in my 8core case, 8 separate processes (ignore the -1 in the code) Then "p.map()" runs function "run()" 120 times (12 fps times 10 sec. from the settings) but only 8 at one time. As soon as one process is finished it runs the next one. it saves the images separately and can be stitched together into one gif with "exportGif()" More in depth info can be found on: https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/multiprocessing.html My example is only useful if the processes don't have to talk to each other. But on the ref page above should be other examples as well. I'll post the result of my script in a few hours. Well the result in which I've used this method.

  I figured out the problem: I was using the wrong version of Python when installing the package. Just so this isn't useless, I used this to help me check if the module was installed and accessible in Drawbot: help("modules")

  good question in drawBot there is not a api for this. I could consider imageResoltion(path) returning the dpi opening an issue: https://github.com/typemytype/drawbot/issues/215

  The last thing will be to provide for the case where the points are in a continuous chain, like the <o>. I'm pretty sure I know what to do, and it shouldn't be that hard, but I have some other problems with the Crouwel code to fix first (all to do with graphing and finding valid paths—this whole project is forcing me to teach myself the basics of computer science as I go). I'll post the revised and extended code here when it's done.

  not directly... you can load the image as an ImageObject and use it as a context to draw something, a pixel at a specific place. im = ImageObject("http://f.cl.ly/items/1T3x1y372J371p0v1F2Z/drawBot.jpg") with im: fill(1, 0, 1) rect(0, 0, 10, 10) image(im, (10, 10))
