Description I noticed various users wondered about Firealpaca's funny selection tool in , so here's my second tip! I hope this clarifies how to use it a little bit.

[EDIT] For some reason, Deviantart's compression made the image not so easy to read. You can download the original png either from the devart server, or from here: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25…

Do you find these tips useful? Let me know if you have doubts about how to use the program and you think I can help by making a tip like this one.

The Magic Wand can be as effective as Sai's when it comes to colouring and selecting. 

You just select the Wand go up to expand and change it to how thick your lineart is (or whatever you're selecting). 

I find it quite useful "cheating" when colouring. XD

Really? It worked less "perfect" than SAI's for me, but then again I don't use it that much for that, so maybe with the newer and newer versions it got better. Thanks for your comment!

No problem! I just recently found that out myself.

This'd be pretty helpful for the lovely FA newbies~! owo/

Hello! I checked that the text would be readable but somehow Deviantart's color and image compression fucked it up - @

I uploaded the original image to my Dropbox: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25… Let me know if you can see this one better.

Oh, I can see the dropbox version better, though I couldn't really see the text on the dA version because, when I compared the two, the dA image is smaller. owo"

Odd...

Maybe you should make the text bigger on the original. owo"

It will eat up more space than I want to, but I'll have to do that...
