• Online sharing – Export art online for viewing in a Web browser and importing into other games as custom textures
• Miiverse stamps
• Updated galleries – 720P with auto-focus depth-of-field effect
• Updated menus – All redesigned for 720P
• Fix to the opacity bug when using undo/redo
• Controls tutorial for Galleries
• Load existing art from within the Painting screen
• Menus remember the last highlighted selection
• Additional Stencils

Here’s a video showcasing the slideshows:
