      A while ago I wrote a script to convert #uxn .icn files to .png. For my #DecemberAdventure I wrote an accompanying script which converts .png files to .icn&lt;br/&gt;This has the effect of pixel-izing the image and I can control which pixels get converted to black or white based on a threshold applied to their R, G, B, alpha values. It also allows me to load any png into Noodle and draw on it! &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I am a bit slow when it comes to programming, so my Adventures tend to be limited. But I’m glad I got this done&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://media.mas.to/media_attachments/files/115/741/641/496/649/626/original/7c839a1ec8a6d8a8.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;

      That was a fun #drawtober. I made it a point to only use #uxn ‘s noodle for my drawings. I learned some new things about how noodle works and was introduced to supporting tools to help draw geometric shapes. I was very pleased that something as simple as discovering how to quickly draw a circle blew me away. My mind blossomed with new ideas of what was possible in my drawings.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Some of my drawings were quick and sloppy, some I sunk 2 hours into and really really like. I am proud of all of them.

      8/31 #drawtober&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Limited time to draw this one, but it gave me a chance to play with Moogle!! When I loaded the .icn file into Noodle my mouth dropped I couldn’t believe how awesome it was I could make clean circles! This changes everything. #uxn #varvara&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://media.mas.to/media_attachments/files/115/341/581/670/552/017/original/8ba2d241b2ef6182.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;

I forgot about moogle. I think the one time I checked it out I didn’t yet know what a .icn file was or that it could be used across the uxn-verse! I’ve used gimp a little too. I don’t know how to make transparent overlays yet but I will find out!

Maybe this is just a general 1bit drawing technique, but what do you do to make circles in Noodle? For instance in the Valentinel Bridge

My issue is that I’ve never been drawing and thought “ah yes a perfect time to use the magic wand”. It could be I’m still refining a style and the need for it will arise later? Not sure. But for now I will mostly just forget it’s there. When do you use it most frequently? When you’re drawing structures? Or characters or faces?

      6/31 Pierce #drawtober &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The geometric shapes were inspired by what happens when you use the magic wand tool on thick solid brush lines in #uxn ‘s noodle. I honestly still don’t know how to use the magic wand. I think I get what it does, but I have yet to think of a way to fit it into my drawing arsenal. Maybe I need to see it in action. Anyone have any tips?&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://media.mas.to/media_attachments/files/115/330/542/496/062/625/original/056cb7cf7537b68d.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;

IN the filename. I never knew, but should have expected haha! I haven’t pulled an update since last year, back then I could noodle test.icn and it would render fine, but perhaps it assumed a standard size?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Anyways, I think it should be fine I’ll msg you on discord if it’s not tho. This is how I felt today:&lt;br/&gt; &lt;img src=&#34;https://media.mas.to/media_attachments/files/115/285/347/519/873/702/original/245d96efd0868184.png&#34;&gt; &lt;br/&gt;

Does noodle read the .icn files in a new way now? Or does it expect a specific image height/width?

There was some unexpected behavior that was confusing me. &lt;br/&gt;Mouse2 while using colors ‘2’, ‘3’, or ‘4’ will erase pixels of any color (makes sense to me). But selecting color ‘1’ does not draw anything with Mouse1 and Mouse2 while in color ‘1’ only erases color ‘2’ pixels, not ‘3’ or ‘4’&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Maybe this is intended? Regardless, it works perfectly for what I’m trying to use it for :)

I can get the eraser icon to appear by pressing ‘1’ but then drawing while holding left or right click doesn’t seem to do anything. Also, is there a preferred forum to discuss your works where I can ask questions like this?
