====Creating images with brushes and shapes====

File:Tux_Paint.png|Working with stamps (black and white)
File:Tux Paint 3 Work done stamp on Tux Paint page.png|Working with stamps (color)
</gallery>
The above images show the different ways of creating images with Tux Paint.
# The first image shows you how to draw freehand. You can use the brush tool, select the kind of brush from the selector, and draw freehand. By choosing from the color palette, you can also make a color sketch. For more fun, you can also listen to sounds as you draw. The bigger the brush, the lower the pitch. You can, of course, mute the sound.
# The second and third images show shapes unfilled and filled in different colors. In addition to freehand, Tux Paint allows you to select pre-defined shapes and stamps to use in your creation. This makes the tool quite versatile. You can select the shapes tool and select the kind of shape from the right hand side selector panel. For example, select 'rectangle' shape, draw a rectangle with drag (press left click and keep pressed) and drop (release left click), if you didn't keep press mouse and release, it will keep moving. Press and release is required to complete the drawing.
====Adding text to images ====
[[File:Tux paint - adding text.png|450px|left|thumb|Adding text]]
There is also a 'text' tool, which allows you to type in text in the canvas. By combining images and text, you can create simple cartoon strip.
For adding text, Select text tool from left tool bar, click on the screen where you need to add text and start typing. from the right side font window you can change the text font. Also change the text color from the bottom color tool bar.

====Creating animations====

File:Tuxpaint_animation.png|Creating a sequence of images
File:Tuxpaintanimation1.png|Creating a sequence of images
File:Animation_Play.png|Animating the images using a slideshow
</gallery>
#It is possible to make simple animations with the pictures you created. In the first step, shown in the first image, you can use Tux Paint to create a series of images you want to build the animation with. For example, draw the life stages of a plant and you can start with a seed being blown from a mature plant. You can add as many images as you want to tell your story. Each time you can make slight changes to each drawing to create the idea of animation.
#The next step is to number the images and play them using slideshow, shown in the second image above. Numbering is done by simply clicking on '''slides'''. The bars that you see next to the play button allow you to select the speed at which the slideshow wil lrun and hence determine how your animation will look.
====Saving the files and formats====
# Once you have created/ edited your images, you can click on the save button on the left panel. If it is a new creation, Tux Paint will simply save. If you are editing an existing image Tux Paint will give you an option of replacing the older file or saving a new file.
# The files will be saved as ".png".
# '''Viewing the saved files''' The files saved by Tux Paint are available in your home folder, under the sub folder /.tuxpaint/saved. The "." preceding the tuxpaint makes this folder 'hidden'. To un-hide (show) and open this folder you can do 'CTRL H' when you have opened your home folder. You can then see all hidden folders. You can copy these files to any other folder you want.
====Advanced features====
You can copy image files (only in png format) to the Tux Paint folder for saved files - under the sub folder /.tuxpaint/saved in your home folder. You can open these using Tux Paint and edit it within Tux Paint.
===Ideas for resource creation===
#It is easy to use Tux Paint to create simple drawings. These drawings can be a combination of what you can draw, combined with the 'stamps' or images already available in the application. Thus image/graphics resources can be created with Tux Paint. These images can be inserted in documents to create picture essays.
#It is also possible to create simple animations in Tux Paint. You can create a series of drawings, with small modifications as required. You can sequence these drawings to show one after another. You can then 'play' the slides for to create an animation.
