The difference between certain artistic tools: To the left is the brush
dialog for Corel Photopaint's brushes. Obviously there are a lot of
variables- it can make your head spin. Beside the dialog are some
examples with a supplied brush- yes, you will be wanting to make your
own! Still, there are plenty of ways to use the given.

Then we have the dialog for the image sprayer. Image sprayers are NOT
the same as brushes- they function more like stamps. You can't do
certain fancy moves like with the brushes but you get to use full colour
graphics as opposed to a monotone image. They're cerainly very useful
from the designperspective. You will also want to make your own
eventually.

While we're at it here are the differences between vector fills and
bitmapped fills: A vector fill is made up of mathematically generated
lines which can be scaled to any size in vector applications like Corel
Draw. This means I can have big or little sized flowers to fill my
design and both will look perfectly fine at the output I choose.A
bitmapped fill on the other hand has a set (finite) size. Taking web
dimensions (pixels) for example instead of real world units ( inches,
centimeters ) you can see that using a vector fill at 500 pixels to tile
by produces perfect results whereas the bitmapped fill ( set at 100
pixels ) looks horrid when you attempt to stretch it out as a 500 pixel
tile- that�s because it was never intended to be used beyond 100
pixels.Those Photoshop patterns that I provide are simply the included
jpegs ( bitmaps ) bundled up into a ps pat file. People who use Corel
Photopaint ( or any other editor ) can simply load the jpegs as fills.
