Can you make it to where you see what you last drew on the next frame?

@Gladiolt The eyes on the layer panel are buttons that make the layer visible. So you can make the layer you're drawing on invisible to see the last frame-- I don't think you can do it while you're drawing the animation. That is unless you want the frame before to show through to the next frame in the animation.

Does the "Jimp" have the same print/output color fidelity as photoshop????

I refuse to stoop to such petty examples of prejudice and nationalism -- you are a person, and I am a person. Most people from your birthplace are probably very kind. You, however, come across as a disgrace. You are an embarrassment to your birthplace -- you are an embarrassment to Earth. I suggest you seek retribution, but judging by your perceived intelligence, I doubt you even know what that word means.
