    Haha, I just realized this entire time that I've been using this tablet, I've had my brush presets very arbitrary and wonky. It was a few stupid settings that I probably just randomly clicked while I was first introducing myself with Photoshop oh-so long ago, but I really should have known better as I familiarized myself with the program. All this time my lines were coming out very blurry and inconsistent, and I always just compensated instead of looking in the menus for an easier fix. Glazed right over it and kept on drawing for about two years! Don't know why I never just paid closer attention, it just never crossed my mind I guess?

    Y'all ever done something dumb with art? Or realize you've been using some kind of tool (traditional / digital / etc) incorrectly for a long time? Share your mishaps and woes here!
     
    I prefer to use pressure=size rather than pressure=opacity but my program often resets to the latter and I forget to change it? and I often forget to switch to paintbrush rather than airbrush when I first start drawing? I could probably fix things under presets or something but... idk.... but anyway when I start drawing it's just a disaster every time lmao

    oh god and that ;____;

    i usually notice as soon as i go to put on a new layer so it's just the sketch that is lost (which is fine it goes away anyway) but still like D:<

    I legit just flinched.
     
    Me trying to draw at all.
    Seriously, this one's for 3D art, forgetting to turn on dynamic topology for a sculpt and wondering why nothing's happening.
     
    Or when you run out of "undo"s. >:(

    Your undos are called History States. You can set it in your preferences to be higher! It'll take more memory to remember them all. It's under Performance.

    I would give you some images to guide by, but it seems that imgur is having a fit.
