I've been trying to attempt to use Paint tool SAI.
But for now it's only the trial version and I can't do much with it.
I'm trying to find other programs to that I can try to experiment with.

I see. ^^
I do reccomend FireAlpaca though. It has a lot of features like SAI (except for layer modes, brush import, and FireAlpaca having Animation features, these are different). It's like a free alternative for SAI, and there're many tutorials and resources online. ^^
A program with more advanced features is MediBang Paint, where you can make Manga out of. But MediBang and FireAlpaca are both free and quite similar to each other anyway (except for the Manga features), so it's your choice. ^^
If you do prefer a 'Photoshop For Artists' kind of program, then I reccomend Krita. The program is free, but like Photoshop, has too many advanced features that will take forever to get used to. :/

Yeah I see what you mean.
The one I'm trying to learn now is confusing and it's probably a basic program for many people. :/

Same for me. :v I knew nothing when I first used SAI, but I came to realised that it was too confusing to use, and I never found it that useful anyway. It's all in preference that makes a program good, after all. :/
But basic or not, it's still an art program, and it takes a while to find out what do you prefer.

True. And I do like the program.
I think all I can do really is get used to it and hope I understand and grasp it.
