Bee-Shi [2006-01-07 19:55:55 +0000 UTC]

nice tutorial ...can't you do something similar in ms paint, or is graphicsgale really necessary? just curious cause i've never tried it before.

emlan In reply to Bee-Shi [2006-01-07 21:18:55 +0000 UTC]

You can do it just fine with MSpaint, but GraphicsGale has layers and easier color palette so it's much faster!
