Sooo I have only done things in mspaint w/ a mouse. I want to do animations one day, so I got graphicsgale. Is it possible to import something from mspaint to a more powerful program and still use onion skinning, layering and what not? Or do I need to draw from scratch in that program?

This is a silly question, this question is silly. @_@ Simply open it from the main menu like you would any file. Failing that copy/paste the image. -------------  "pwnage comes with patience, practice and planning." ~ Jalonso

| Yea but I can't paste it in layers, I was asking if I could add things as layers afterwards. |

Manually. Copy/paste each individual MSpaint creation as a layer. Doi.

Okay let me be more specific, can you use the advanced tools for animation on something drawn completely in mspaint. . .
Actually I'll just figure it out. This topic can be closed, thanks.

Make the individual frames in MSpaint, then use unFreeze to put them together.
