Well, this is my first image with this tool and on this site, so I decieded to start with something simple to draw - a tree in winter, no leaves, just a bit of shading. Its far from perfect and I think I'd like to tinker with it some more.

Depending on where the sun is in the picture, the shadows of the branches might not be visible on the pic.

hmmm well I can't revise the pic. It was too large to edit. I didn't merge the layers before saving because then I would not have been able to touch up the pic properly. Foo.

Somehow the layers (which I only used 5 of) or maybe the image dimensions, made the image too big for me to edit it again. If it was the layers then thats pretty sad, as five is a pretty dinky number of layers for it to cause a problem with re-editing. I'd understand 20 or even 12, given how many layers a serious pic can take in Paint Shop Pro or any other tool like that.

I guess I will have to do all my pics in one session from now on, which means drawing *very* little (say one pic every 3 months or so if I'm lucky), as I have a life that takes me away from the computer every few minutes (child, housework, disabled wife). Oh well. It was nice for a while. I guess I'll just browse other peoples work.

I understand the need for size contraints on saved images, so I guess I'll have to stick to drawing at home on PSP most of the time. So much for learning tis cool new tool.
