You walk through the [non-solid] School, until you found something that catches your attention.

The Suggestion's Box

Before you could get any nearer, a Computer screen immeadiatly appears in front of you, from out of nowhere. The screen then starts acting like a digital "multi-colored rainbow": turns blue, then red, then green...
Suddenly, the screen starts playing the following message:

Hello! Welcome to the Poke-International Forums' Art School's newest addition: The Suggestion Box!
Do you want some more basic tutorials on the Study Room? Do you want more staff at the Show Room? Do you have any ideas that could improve the School? Then write it here, and we'll get to you as soon as possible!

The message is over, and the screen disappears into thin air, surprising and shocking you yet again, leaving you alone with the Suggestion Box...

I... guess this would count as a suggestion. I guess. ^^;

Just wanted to add two other ways to do renders, if you want them. I don't know if you do or not though. XD;;

1. Magnetic lasso tool -- this is good for when you have other things in the background, and it's a little faster than doing it pixel by pixel. Click on the Lasso tool, and you'll see it (it'll be the one with the magnet on it). Click on a button, and go around the thing you want to render. It'll select points as you move the mouse. (If it messes up, however, all you can really do, as far as I know, is click on the first point, deselect it, and try again.) Once you're at your first point again, click it, and what you want is somewhat selected.

Of course, the image will still need cleaning up since the tool isn't perfect, but it's a start, right? ;p It's a little crazy at times, but I love it <3

2. Magic Wand tool -- works very well on single-colored backgrounds as well (usually when the tolerance is set low). Click, it'll select the area, and you can hit the delete button. However, this doesn't work well on .jpeg images, as I've seen. ^^;; (But then again that might be because my tolerance is 0. XD)

Hm, yes. Didn't even play with that tool, I use Paint for that XD;

Lol, the Magic Wand, the Magic Eraser, and the Cleaning Bucket all do the same thing. I wonder why oO;

Anyway, good suggestions! I'll add them asap.
