is made one of my pictures turn black and white using the gray scale mode then switch it to RGB but for some reason when i erase something it uses the colours from the foreground/background colours instead of being an eraser. how can i turn my eraser back into an eraser.

    Yea the background colour needs to be white for the eraser to work correctly, otherwise it will give the colour of the background colour

    na, if u change the background colour to white, it will be an 'eraser' and not a white paintbrush, do it Shahbir, trust me, I believe in you!

    Make sure you don't have the layer locked as well. When you have a layer locked, the eraser insted of removing the colour or whatever it is you want erased colours over it instead. You can unlock a lyer by either double clicking it or by the icons in the top left hand corner of the layers pallette
