Hi Everyone, Have seen a few B&W photos and a flower or something small, painted a different colour. I have a special portrait of a small girl with flowers in her hair. I have psp7. Have taken out background and is all B & W. Have tried to colour using pencil. I change colour to red but when i go to colour it goes back to gray. So i know is something simple i am doing wrong but i cant figure it out. Would appreciate any help you can give me. Chris

Oh well I am not sure,dont have the software. It sounds like you havnt changed it back to RGB from greyscale. A commoing thing I have done before. If its still in greyscale then it wont let you use any color on it till you change it to a color mode.

Apophis is correct, i have PSP & came across this problem too a ways back... like a puzzle trying to figure it all out :]

This would be the problem.After greyscale is set you must change the colours back to 16 million colours.Make sure to also merge all layers.
