When you load an image to start a new drawing, the background will be asked, also you can change it in the middle of a work.

» 3D brushes :
This effect let you add relief to your results. There are three basic parameters which controls the 3D effect: 1- Bumpiness: This parameter controls the depth of each stroke, as more higher values more notable is the 3D effect. 2- Softness: This parameter controls control how hard is the relief, as more higher value, less notalble (but possibly more natural) is the 3D effect. 3- Light Intensity: As more higher values, more lighter strokes you will obtain. Keep it in 30, if you don’t wish to distort the original colors.
