:devart: DEFAULT SETTINGS :devart:

SAI TOOL PRESETS
If your Easy Paint Tool Sai DOESNT have tools (or if you messed them up and cant get them back to normal)

1) Right click on a blank tool square

It will then come up with a list of options.
Choose the tool you wish to make. Heres my order:

Click PEN a new PEN tool will come up.

To make basic pen set the little slide bars too -
Normal/Multiply- Normal
Edge shape - Last selection (Square)
Size - Any
Min size - 0%
Density - 98%-100%
Texture - None (A drop down box)
Layer - None (Another drop down box with canvas paper etc in it)

Tick advanced

Quality - 4 (Best)
Hardness - 0

Max density - 100%

Pres
Default Brushes Paint Tool Sai
Default Tool Settings for Easy Paint Tool Sai

I couldn't find these any where so I figured I'd just down load a new copy of Sai and write down the configurations.

Paint Tool Sai has some great features but it is  missing a few things, like a tool reset button.

But fortunately now we'll all know what the settings are and can manually reset them :

lol, jk. The best painting programs are Corel Painter 12, Adobe Photoshop CS5, and SAI. The SAI I downloaded looked like crap, though. Maybe this was some sort of trial version, or I sucked arse at it. I see some of the best digital art comes out of it, including yours. I watched you, ok? Cause I like to watch, fave, converse, and talk.

No, that was me being a troll. Sometimes I troll in a friendly way, online and in real life. I should start gathering ideas now for pictures i'll work on in a few days.
