Description Need I say it?
Full view friendly.
This is just an outlining tutorial for fellow MS Paint users. I saw how few people seem to know about scanning on MS Paint or the replacer technique, so I thought this tutorial might help some people.

Edit: I know I spelled a couple words wrong, including "back" instead of "bad".

IceOcean In reply to harrypottergeek [2008-02-17 06:54:48 +0000 UTC]

Um, I do really get what you mean by that. Could you please specify a little more? And do you mean before or after you've cleared the lines? There's more than one attributes 'thing' you do and I'm not a mind reader. (I wish!)

harrypottergeek In reply to IceOcean [2008-02-17 07:02:08 +0000 UTC]

ok, when u have to out line a scanned picture. so i out line it and then i click the invert colors (right?), and then click the attributes button. and set it to black and white and click ok the whole image turns black! O_O

IceOcean In reply to harrypottergeek [2008-02-17 07:10:49 +0000 UTC]

Oh, alright. Hm...Are you outlining it in white? I seriously doubt that, though. How dark is the paper? That might do it. Or...Oh, wait. Do you mean you click, "Ok" or "attributes" again. For it to work, you click okay. (Obviously. I'm assuming you click okay, unless I said something else in the tutorial.)

harrypottergeek In reply to IceOcean [2008-02-17 07:14:53 +0000 UTC]

i think its how dark the paper is, because 1 y am i guna outline it in white? 2 i clicked ok and i even double checked everything before i asked u wat i did wrong. so it has to b the paper

I was an idiot when I used MSPaint. I'd zoom in after outlining a picture and colour it in pixel by pixel. It never occured to me that there was an easier way and I was being a moron. Lol.

IceOcean In reply to JessPot [2008-01-26 02:24:14 +0000 UTC]

Lol, same at first. I didn't even figure out there WAS a zoom tool. I was like a moron with a mouse. This is actually stuff I've collected over time. I forget where I found the scanning thing, though, and when I went back to find the tutorial it was DELETED so I was like,"Other people might wanna know that." I dunno. In every other tutorial I've seen, EVERYONE has to draw it on the actual program.

JessPot In reply to IceOcean [2008-02-03 04:14:06 +0000 UTC]

Lol! The zoom tool was my best friend.
Oh, I see. It's good to know, anyway. Thanks.
