A Healing Mind

Today I woke up to a text from her containing nothing but this

BITMAP WATERCOLOR BRUSHES, Y’ALL!!! Want to make some SAI brushes in FireAlpaca? Check out THIS handy Guide!

Want to make this brush? Just make a perfect circle and save it (I call mine “round”) and use it as the bitmap, and copy the settings above. It works pretty nicely :D

UM, WHILE I’M HERE:

Here is where you can download FireAlpaca (it is completely free software)

*If English is not your native language, you can download it in other languages.

Please download from the official FireAlpaca websites, because a friend of mine simply googled FireAlpaca and downloaded from some random site, and she got malware! So PLEASE be careful.

FireAlpaca has a suggestion/bug reporting box on their site so you can request features, or let them know if you’re having any issues! Also FireAlpaca works fantastically on Mac computers! (though I will say the only time FA has crashed on me is when I used a Mac, so PLEASE save your work often)

Also, please visit these tumblrs if you do get into using FireAlpaca:

Please don’t hurt yourself

Please don’t kill yourself

Please don’t give up

You matter

You are important

You are amazing

You are beautiful

listen to rain with you in my arms

make you some cookies

spread out in a sunny field with you

let you lay your head in my lap

watch a movie or two with you and make dumb commentary the whole time

play with your hair until you fall asleep

hold your hand and count stars
