I have a stupid problem, I do all my graphiv artwork in Photoshop
and the problem is all the images end up with white portions
around them and elsewere in the image.
Am I using the wrong brush?
So, I end up with a white line all around my bird character, for example.
I use black as the color, I don't understand why the brush leaves
a white trail too.
Can anybody help, I don't know if thi is the right place to ask but I'm
sure some of you know what to do.
Try turning off Anti-Aliasing Mode.
If you use Photoshop 7.0 you should see the check box tu turn it
off in the top bar when you activate the brush tool.
I don't see any checkbox in the top bar.I checked under the edit menu end in the brushes options.
I looked in Photoshop's help and didn't find references on how to turn
off the anti-aliasing mode of the brush tool.
I made this quick demo how I do it so run the exe and when it is done just hit esc

The easiest way to avoid antialiasing is to not use the brush, but use the pencil instead.
If you click and hold on the brush button, a menu will pop up which allows you to choose between brush and pencil. Basically, the difference is that brush is antialiased, while pencil is not.
Antialiasing may still occur if you use other tools, of course. When you have finished your sprite, you should check your background by filling it with another color.
