I've been doing pencil drawings then inking and coloring with ms paint. I've been having trouble with the program as it takes what I would like to be a solid color and make's it spotty looking. It seems to do this automatically and it keeps my pictures from having that finished look that I want. HELP! Is this just a weakness inherent in the program or is there a defalt setting I can change?

'Spotty' look after you save it (after you've colored it) or it leaves small, white squares along the outline? Do you have a picture that has the problem that you're talking about so that I can see it or get a better idea of what you mean?

I inked this and scanned into MSP, where I colored it all there using a regular mouse.

I might be able to help, depending on what it is you're having the problem with.

Pretty much all the pictures in my gallery have the problem. I think I have to switch programs.

Oh, I think I see what you're talking about. You saved them as .jpg; that seems to happen on MSP, for some reason. I usually save as a .png. The file is a bit larger, but the pictures always come out crisp, like the ones in my gallery.

Sometimes the pictures you upload onto the computer ARE automatically saved as jpeg files. Then, you just gotta improvise. Sorry if I couldn't help you out....! Confused
