I'm making a pose. And I posed for it so I could outline it easier. I used red to do this, so I could see what I was doing. But now that i finished with the outline, how do I turn the red color to black?
EDIT: Let me try to make this more clear. lol. So I posed for a pose I'm making. My mom took a pic of me in the pose position and I outlined it on GIMP. I outlined it in red so I could see what I was doing. But now that I'm done outlining, I need the lines black. How do I change the color from red to black?

this is a strange way to make a pose. i am curious if you managed to do them on separate layers, or if this pose-making method is even "legal" in wh standards. but an AS will reply with that, i am sure.

i am not sure why this wouldn't be allowed for the wh standards.. as long as it's the appropriate species and stuff.
are you using gimp for the whole process or do you have any other programs? i have never used gimp, so i wouldn't be able to tell you how to fix the outline.

You could turn the lines black by adjusting the brightness and contrast of the layer you are on. You would make it darker so the red would turn to a black. I hope this helps.

When I was a child, my nerves ran wild
When I watched my friends rise to the tops of the trees
The risk of fall -- I never climbed at all
Every day I told myself "I'm not ready"

that's an interesting way to make a pose but obviously it's legal. i think GIMP has a curves function like photoshop. go to tools > color tools > curves. drag the straight line around with your mouse and it'll mess with the contrast, and you should be able to get clean black lines. or you can just "desaturate" the image in the same tool area.

Well I only posed for it because I cant draw an anthro pose on its own. haha xD
EDIT I'll upload the pose probably tomorrow. And I did make a new layer when I was outlining it. :P

lol, I just outlined it and added wolf ears, nose, paws, and a tail. It was an anthro pose, and I cant draw those very well by hand. so I decided to pose for it lmfao. and it worked rather well. :P and yes, I used gimp for the whole thing.

This is the pose. I apologize for its largeness. :( But see what I did? I just added a tail, made my head look wolfish, and I added paws. So I hope there's no more confusion as to how I made this.

Thank you. ^^
Can someone move this to a diff forum? I need help on it now. I need it resized and outlined, and possibly greyscaled.
