i have this glitch where i want to draw but its stuck between the brush tool and the move tool. I even try to close the window, but when the "do you wanna save" button pops up, the move tool is still as my cursor, and every time it happens, i need to force shutdown.

Oooh... I've found a way to colour your linearts without colour bleed and faster. Only possibly for both of these, sorry if it doesn't work :'(

No pictures though, oops >_<

Make sure your lineart is a bigger size than 3 (idk if 2.5 works)
Then, duplicate the layer (right click on the layer and duplicate)
Hide your original layer (eye) and then put the dupe. underneath.
On the duplicate, take the wand select (Inside the toolbox) and click inside the area you want to color. (I think you can only select one spot at a time.)
Now click Select > Grow and put a number that is less than half the size of your brush you are using.
Using the scale tool in your toolbox, drag out your selection and delete the dragged out part.
You can fill in that part now! If you only grew the selection by 1 pixel, I recommend having your threshold (It is in the Tool options for the fill bucket) up to around 100 to 150.
Tada! Now you have a coloured spot!

"But Susan," you say, "the spot is now aliased! I want it to look soft!!! >:'("
So then you can unhide the original outline and it will be looking like you manually coloured it.

I did my most recent art like this, but then I realized I couldn't color my lines (Using the lock alpha channel button). So I recommend first selecting and removing all of the parts you want to color, then duplicating that so the things are seperate (fur is one layer, hair is one layer, etc.)

p.s. if you knew this already, shame for not sharing it. I spent like 2 hours trying to discover a way ;n;

thats a cool idea susan i had no idea about select grow

heres my method in case anyone was wondering

duplicate lineart layer
select the one on the bottom (make one on top invis)
use the pointing finger tool
set threshold to 160-165
click on a transparent part
take a giant eraser and run it over the lineart a few times
(if you really want to be thorough you can do steps 3-6 twice)
select all
your lineart will now look very binary
then you can use paintbucket (threshold of 0)
and then you can just make the top lineart visible tada all colored

minimize all the gimp windows. most of the time it works, sometimes it doesnt. gimp's pretty buggy.
