I drew my doodles on a sheet of paper. Resolution was scanned at 200. It came out pretty clear. I then opened DIP...opened my scanned file and used the marquee tool to copy and paste each image onto a new canvas. (I don't know if you have to do this but I did. There was some touching up on each image that I wanted to do, and it wasn't so overwhelming looking at one at a time.) Like I said they came out pretty clear but could have used a little "umph". So I made them darker. (Effects>Filters>All Filters>Photocopy. Under Photocopy go to Change Advance Options, set Detail at 24.) This will really make them pop. Then when you finished editing click on the "magic wand">copy>new>select canvas size>paste>save. Now I probably made a lot more steps than needed (I'm VERY new at this) but this was the only way I could get a good, clean, crisp image.

I hope this made sense. Anyway off to doodle some more. I have some super cute christmas doodles to do. Maybe I'll try to submit them for the freebies section?!?!? After I figure out how to do zip files and such?!?!? My brain is getting overloaded with all this new and fun information!
