Tired of 2020 trying to kill you? Have a cute quickly-drawn pic of Fluffy, my almost-2-month-old kitten which I got a few days ago!
Sorry for the empty lines, I have no idea how to create another layer in ChickenPaint or whatever it was called.

What a cute kitten! <3 Hope you will have a lot of fun with your new family menber :D

If you want to create more layers, you only need to click on this button!: (inside the red circle)


If you want any more help on how to use Chickenpaint/oekaki feel free to ask me questions, or go to this thread: "How To Use Oekaki?" Guide The first posts are about older artprograms used here, so be sure to look at the posts about the newer ones as well! (the newest one currently is Chickenpaint 2.0)

Thanks for showing me! I'm actually pretty new to drawing on computer, all this stuff about layers and everything is confusing, I prefer the good old paper more but I have no idea how to get the picture in my computer without my dad's help. (for me phone is only messages, calls and taking the photos. And my dad is a pretty known programmer, I don't think there actually are much people who haven't heard about him!)

Yeah, it can be a little hard at first when you are not used to it, I myself use chickenpaint because I find most other drawing programs way too complicated for me x,D (there are some that are also not as hard though) But, at least for me, after I got used to drawing on my computer/phone I found it way easier than to draw on paper. Having layers, not having to worry about erased lines showing, being able to resize and move things around, being able to change colours easily, etc. makes me not having to take risks and be afraid to mess up. It has really made drawing easier and more fun for me. I'm sure you might feel the same, at least to some extent, when you get more comfortable as well :D

Thanks for encouraging me to keep going trough hell, and bringing me back the hope the heaven is at the other end <3 it means a lot for me.
I myself find paint 3D and pixel studio more comfortable than ChickenPaint, you might want to try those if you haven't yet. And pixel studio is free on steam. It's easier to do layers there in my opinion. And paint 3D has tons pre-made shapes and the ability to make 3D pictures. But warning: it can get really glitchy. Paint 3D tends to stop working for a time period of 5 days-1 month from time to time if you use it quite a lot. Also save a lot and remember to turn it off whenever you are going to do something else, it's gonna seriously slow down the computer. Same with pixel studio, but because your toolbar (or whatever that is) won't show which is super annoying.
I guess everything has its own pros and cons. Balance is needed in the world.
