Re: [Gimp-user] Difficulty creating shadows

[Madeleine Fisher <animatrix1490 gmail com>]

If you look below the toolbox, you should see the "tool options" tab, which
has a little icon with sliders on it. Click that, then adjust Brush Size
either by dragging the sliding control, typing the number in.

Alternatively you can skip that and just use the bracket keys [ and ] to
decrease and increase the size.  [ = make brush smaller (if you hold it
down, it should go to one), ] = make brush bigger.

Good luck!
