Notice about trial lines for SAI: Because Megaupload has been seized by the US Gonernment my link will not work anymore.
However, if anyone with SAI still wants to enter for these positions could you please send me a PM asking for the converted file with your email address (this is essential because I will be sending it via email).
I'll get back to you as soon as possible, there have been difficulties because of the recent house fire on sunday and this week is crammed full of exams, but I will get back to you all promptly.
Thank you. (And please don't hesitate to ask, I don't bite I promise! <3 )

Has anyone else noticed that something with wrong with the layers in the Soquili file? No matter what I try, these whites spots remain on the tail and around the face. I cannot color over them. I cannot smudge it closer to the lines. I also cannot erase them.
I was wondering if someone could give us a link to better files, or if someone could help me fix those white spots please.

Unlock the pixels, go in with a 1-3 point brush on your template, clean it up however you wish, then re-lock the pixels and you should be fine. I wasn't sure if they wanted those left or not, so on some I left and on some I tweaked. Hope that helps! mrgreen Question myself, do we have to make a separate post to tell the judges that we updated? and if so, should we include a link to our post?

Jaleeni How do I unlock them? I'm still a newbie working with Photoshop. Okay, on your layers panel, there is a small bit of text at the top that says then has four icons, then a gap, then with a percentage number. Next to lock should be 4 icons. The first is a checkerboard thing that looks like the transparency background. On these templates, the default should be that it has a dark square around it, showing that the lock is engaged. Click onto the layer that you wish to edit, and then click the checkerboard. The darkness around it should go away. Now it is unlocked, and you can color anywhere. When you are done, click the checkerboard again to re-lock it. Hope that helped, I'm sick and have early class so I have to skedaddle. But if you have any more questions, feel free to drop me a pm or IM me. I don't check this thread everything, so might not see it. Hope it helped! mrgreen
