Nice guide, thanks for making it as clear and easy to read as it is now, I only have one Qeustion:
Whenever I try to change the Bitmap for the Eraser it just changes outomaticly back to a diffrent one even if I press apply.

I dont think anti-aliasing does anything for custom tip brushes. That being said, i havent touched OC6 in ages

Oh okie I will try that. I also tried to turn off anti-aliasing and it seemed to work; is it important to have anti-aliasing feature on for the brush? I didn't notice any difference (or maybe I didn't know where to look) after turning it off.

Try using a smaller bitmap. 128x128 is a good size, if that still lags try a smaller image

Hello!

Thank you so much for the tutorial. I just started using this program.

One question. When I used this brush, it seemed that the brush-rendering on the canvas "lagged" behind my stylus. Did that happen because of the complicated brush pattern? I tried making a simpler version brush with only 12 small circles, the rendering speed still lagged when I tried drawing with it. I have a decent graphic card. Is there a setting/trick to help and improve the brush redenering speed when drawing?
