Walter (and helpers) have done an amazing job transforming TurtleArt. As I write this its 3:50am Walter time and he is still up coding Turtle Art. 

New features include multiple turtles, zoom, polar and cartesian coordinates, SVG output, variable names and stack names can be variables too, collapsible stacks, comments, multimedia, debug mode, Python block, tooltips, trash

it is still low entry but packs lots of high level opportunities with a strong educational focus

You can download the new Turtle Art for testing from

any feedback is welcome
