A few times I tried drawing something, but after placing thirty or so pieces around a single spot, my work starts deteriorating. Just now I was working on an eye. While getting the shape of the lower eye lid in, the pupil and iris that I had already drawn started to disappear. At first I figured it was because I was placing too many pieces on my palette, but after viewing some other people's works that applies an incredible amount of detail, not once did I see the work start to disappear. Is there some sort of trick to it? A certain time to draw when less people are active? reducing the image quality of the computer? not having so many things going on at once? I mean I know people have had problems with this in the past, but it doesn't seem as frequent for them. For me it's every time I attempt a drawing now. It's bothersome, but I was just wondering. |

I have never had anything like that happen before. Must be really bothersome. Hope you get it figured out cause I want to see some more of your art! |

Okay Chinky. This is going to be a long and confusing post, but… |

The Reason You Don’t Notice This in inked_gemini’s Gallery: I am somewhat of a perfectionist or maybe just retentive or compulsive—call it what you will. I don’t like the little white bugs to appear at all, so I use methods to keep them out of my pictures. |

Thank you for both the question and very helpful answer. I have encountered this problem. |

I'm sorry, I do know what you mean - when the white starts to appear when a large number of pieces are placed around the same area. I asked this question before and got a response from Q that I cannot find now. The best I can remember she had some of the same suggestions Inked Gemini made and talked a little about what caused it. I will continue to look for it. |

I don't layer as much as some people, but I have gotten the white spots from time to time. Usually in avatars, or with the stems in fruit, or with the stems in flowers, or with the grey whisker (?) in animals. I attribute it to the thinness of the pieces and the fact that it takes a lot of them right on alongside one another to fill in an area. When it happens, I usually don't mind. I don't mind watching the white bits develop and move around while I am working; I actually was kind of disappointed when the white spots did not show in the final image after submission the first time it happened). Sometimes, I also take it as a sign that I've spent too much time at the drawing. Anyhow, I second all of inked's work arounds. |

Now that I think about it, I should clarify one thing. I've been calling them white spots, but that is not what they are. It is the background showing through the picture. When Chinky said that parts of his picture started to deteriorate and disappear, that was a better description. If you were to use a black background, they would be black spots or leafy spots or alien planet spots or whatever. Another tip would be to use this to your advantage. |

I'm on a new computer and I'm experiencing problems with Think Draw. Maybe someone has had this before and can help. When I click on DRAW to make a picture the pieces look jagged and or distorted. When I click on a piece and drag it, it's like on a rubber band and sometimes I can't get it to stick to the canvas. I'm not very computer savvy and my husband (who is more savvy then me) doesn't know what to do either. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks! *J* |

Sorry to hear this Indigo. I know less than anybody about why, but it sounds like the same thing that happens in JigsawSudoku when pieces stick to the arrow and won't let go, while the timer is clicking away! |
