How to use the online drawing editor

To get started, choose a tool from the bar above the canvas: brush for free strokes, eraser to remove parts of the drawing, line/rectangle/ellipse for geometric shapes, paint bucket to fill areas, and text to write directly on the drawing. Click the corresponding icon and it's highlighted in green, showing it's active.

Before drawing, set the color with the color picker and adjust the stroke thickness with the slider — thin strokes (1-5px) work well for detail, while thicker strokes (15-40px) are ideal for quick fills. To draw a shape, click the canvas and drag to the desired size: you'll see the shape being built in real time before you release the button. The brush, on the other hand, freely follows the movement of the mouse or your finger, ideal for sketches and organic outlines.

The paint bucket works like classic MS Paint: click inside a closed area to fill it with the selected color, respecting existing outlines. The text tool opens a typing box over the canvas at the clicked point, with a floating panel for font, size and style (bold, italic, underline) — press Enter for a normal line break and Ctrl+Enter or click outside to confirm the text. The eraser removes parts of the drawing, restoring the white background. Use "Undo" (or Ctrl+Z) and "Redo" to navigate the history without losing the rest of your work, or "Clear" to reset the canvas from scratch.

To combine a photo with the drawing, click "Load Image" and select a file: it appears over the canvas in a dotted box with control points on the corners and edges. Drag from the center to move it, or from the edge points to resize it — the corners keep the original proportion, while the edges stretch freely. Confirm with the check icon, Enter, or click outside; cancel with X or Esc.

When the drawing is ready, click "Download PNG" to save the file to your device with a white background and high quality. The generated file can be used in blog posts, social media, presentations, or printed normally, since all processing happens locally in your browser — no image is sent to external servers.

Frequently asked questions

Are my drawings uploaded to a server?
No. All drawing happens directly in your browser, on a local canvas. Nothing is sent to servers, so your privacy is preserved.
Is there a usage limit or do I need to pay anything?
There is no usage limit and the tool is 100% free. You can draw, export and start over as many times as you like.
Does it work on mobile and tablet?
Yes. The editor responds to touch, so it works on phones and tablets, as well as mouse and stylus on desktops.
How do I draw perfect shapes like rectangles and circles?
Select the rectangle or ellipse tool in the sidebar, click the canvas and drag to the desired size. The shape is drawn in real time as you drag, outlined in the selected color.
What's the difference between the paint bucket and the brush?
The brush draws free strokes following the mouse movement, while the paint bucket fills an entire contiguous area with the selected color, similar to classic MS Paint filling. Use the bucket to quickly color closed areas.
How do I export my drawing to use elsewhere, like WordPress or social media?
Click "Download PNG" to save the drawing as a high-quality image file with a white background. The resulting PNG can be inserted directly into blog posts, WordPress or social media with no quality loss.
Can I undo a mistake while drawing?
Yes. The "Undo" and "Redo" buttons keep a history of actions, letting you step back or forward through the drawing without losing the rest of your work.
