Wow I never knew SAI could do so much. D: Do you know where I can buy the program or are there only trials for now?

algenpfleger In reply to DracoPheonus [2007-12-14 07:36:54 +0000 UTC]

Right now there are only trials because the program is still in development. Can't wait for the full version

thank you so much! I never knew you could do that with the textures! I really must experement more XD
I think knowing PS is a good thing... otherwise Sai would be impossible

I have less brushes than you... how did you get the clak brushes and all those things?

algenpfleger In reply to Faerie-s [2007-11-25 13:35:08 +0000 UTC]

well i never had ps and am able to work with sai, so i guess its possible
about the brushes, just rightclick on an empty field in the toolbox and then select "pencil" or whatever kind of tool you wanna create. you can give it another name and a hotkey as well.

algenpfleger In reply to PrinnyDance [2007-10-30 07:31:56 +0000 UTC]

It's easy! Make the toolbox bigger just like a window, then rightclick an empty field and select "Pencil" or "Water" or whatever you want.
The doubleclick the thing, define a hotkey, and change some settings, and you're done ^_^b
