Morning Star can recolor now!

After a burst of inspiration, I managed to finish implementing Morning Star’s most basic functionality: recoloring images!

Thanks to Qt4’s awesome high-level interface to images (using QImage objects), the recoloring logic turned out to be much shorter and easier to understand than Wesnoth-TC’s, which had to deal with libpng and all the storage format details with PNG files. Instead, Morning Star just needs to care about reading, comparing and writing 32-bit ARGB values.

The interface design is pretty much set in stone now for version 1.0, but there’s still a lot of functionality missing. Nonetheless, this is starting to look good and I should have a working version for releasing to the public very soon. Hopefully this time artists will like this tool.
