Description O-M-G...

I have to make something very similar to this little application for my next paid commission, and I had no idea how to encode ANYTHING in Flash beyond a basic doll. So I studied several tutorial sites and ended up making this to learn the skills needed to do it.

It's a fun paint type program done in flash. It was a pain to do! [Well, getting it to draw just in black and in one size was fine, but then I added color, width, and even erasers, so I had a hell of a time looking piecemeal for tutorials on variables! @_@]

Please enjoy this fun program. If you create something neat and want to save it, take a screenshot with the ' prntscrn ' or ' printscreen ' tab on your keyboard and paste it into your favorite image editor. [photoshop, mspaint, etc.] If you want to share it, make a deviation out of it and post a link in the comments here!

Time: 6 Hours or so
Medium: Flash 6

Resources Used:
Kirupa.com
Webwasp
Webwasp 2
CGShelf

EDIT: Also, if you download it, you can adjust the size to however large or small you want it! ^_^

EDIT 2: Apparently this works really well on handheld devices. [like the psp]

yanagi-san In reply to villamar [2007-11-06 00:51:30 +0000 UTC]

I saw tutorials for how to do that, but then basically- you have an oekaki program, lol.

villamar In reply to yanagi-san [2007-11-06 04:47:03 +0000 UTC]

yes but it's the satisfaction of making your own paiting crap on flash and all... umm you used flash 6? Don't you have like... flash 8 or CS3 or something?

yanagi-san In reply to villamar [2007-11-06 05:01:23 +0000 UTC]
