Hmmm...yes, my first drawing on the new 2draw will be an angel. Its like 1:31 am, so obviously there will be some kinks I need to work out. Oh, the type tool isn't working. Maybe I'm using it wrong? can anyone help me?

Gahhhh...somethings bothering me about this...hopefully its something that can be worked out in color.

Can one of the moderators grant me some more space to finish this pic please? I beseech thee. I cannot leave it uncompleted. Thanks

Looking good so far! welcome back.

as for the text tool, it uses your current brush (eraser, blur, etc.) to draw the text, so if you're not in paint brush mode, it won't do what you might expect. There are advantages though (being able to erase or blur with text instead of freehand). Also, for the crispiest text, use a 1x1 brush, but you can get interesting effects if you play with that as well (for example, text shadow).
And last but not least, I highly recommend using java 2 if you aren't, because java 2 supports any font you have installed which is a lot better than the default 3 or so ones.
