There are three ways to access the image editor: 1) click “Paint Now” on the home page, 2) select “Upload” in the “Photos” menu on your account page, or 3) click any photo icon on your account page.

	Picking colors You can pick a new color from the color browser which can be accessed by either clicking the fandeck icon or choosing "New" in the "Colors" menu. You can place any color in the workspace (next to the photo) by double clicking it or by clicking the 'Save' button. Click the 'Close' button when you're done picking new colors.
	Color swatches The tools work with the color swatch that you selected by clicking onto it. If you already applied a color to a photo, you can switch it by dragging and dropping another color swatch onto it. If you click a color swatch, 3 or 4 tiny icons may appear. The left upper icon with the cross is to remove a swatch. The right upper icon is to pop up the color browser to change the color of the swatch. If you change the color of a swatch that has already been applied to a photo, the photo will change along with it. The icon at the right lower corner can be dragged to enlarge the color swatch. If the color has been applied in the photo, a bucket icon will appear in the middle of the swatch. This means ther are two ways of switching colors in the photo: Drag and drop another color onto the color that you applied in the photo. Select the color that you want to change and click the small fandeck icon that appears in the swatch. This will give you direct access to the color browser in order to switch without the need to first place another color in your workspace.
Tools:
All the tools have a plus as well as a minus mode. The plus mode is to add color to the picture. The minus mode is to remove color.
	Bucket Click on the photo to apply new color. The bucket has automated edge detection.
	Lasso Use the lasso to apply color by drawing a line around a surface.
	Brush The brush is the perfect tool to draw over organic shapes that the bucket may have missed. You can use it to draw out leaves and trees and the like. Double-click the brush icon to set the size.
	Line Drag the line tool over the photo to draw a line. When you release the mouse button, the line will be fixed. Double-click the line icon to set the width.
	Undo Click the "Undo" button to undo the last thing you did.
	Lighting The lighting button pops up a window where you can adjust the appearance of a color. If you correct a surface color this way, all other paint colors that are applied to the same surface get the same correction. This means that even after adjusting the lighting, minor changes in paint color will still be visible.
