Help! I'm trying to make my own butterflies in DIP9. I can get the body of the butterfly by inserting a circle shape and making it into a long oval. I'm having trouble with the wings. I don't want to use 4 ovals for the wings - instead I want to use 4 triangular shapes, but with rounded angles, instead of sharp angles - almost like a guitar pick - kwim? I tried inserting a triangle and using my marquee tool in a circle shape over it, then inverting it for deletion, and this does cut off the sharp angles, but I'm still looking for a rounder shape.

Does anyone know how to do this? Is this the right forum to post this question? Thanks so much for any help!

Try Insert shapes>More Shapes

There is a butterfly template shape there..much easier
Otherwise you could manually edit teh shapes to create what you want.
