Further Explanation:
Things to remember:
DO NOT use the trashcan icon--it will delete one of the pages of your image set!
If you are trying to fill a box or oval with color and see no color, you must ADJUST the transparency before drawing the shape!
When told to move, select the next HIGHER view number from the page list (if you were working on View 6, choose View 1).
You do not need to SAVE the image you are working on until you are told that this is the LAST drawing period.
