Select a drawing mode from the list on the left. The 3 modes are: Pen, Stamp or background. Selecting background will erase the drawing and replace it with a background.

To draw with the pen, click the mouse in the applet to press the pen down. Now keep the mouse button down and drag the mouse to make the pen draw a line. You can change the pen color at any time, while in Pen mode.

In Stamp or Background mode, give the program a few seconds after making your selection, for it to load.

To use a stamp, move the mouse to the location you want to place the stamp and press the mouse button. You can place the stamp more than once in your painting. To choose another stamp, select the number of the stamp you want.

To use a background, select a number for the background. The background erases your painting, and gives it a new background.

If you want to start over, you can erase everything. The Clear button erases everything, including the background.

The applet has no print function. You'll have to capture the screen and print it out.

To print in Windows 95 or higher:

To capture the contents of the screen, press PRINT SCREEN.
Now go to Paint or any other image program and paste the image to print it out. Paint is found in Start/Programs/Accessories/Paint.

For the Mac do:

command-shift-3, the screen is saved as "picture 1", or another numbered PICT file in the root level of your hard drive for you to print. The new Mac OS has command-shift-4, to select the area saved. I don't use a Mac, and I got these instructions from a newsgroup. If they don't work for you, check with someone that knows the Mac.
