Getting Started

FIVE HOT KEYS LAUNCH DIFFERENT

PLAY MODES

DRAW MODE

Press and hold the green CHECK MARK button as you

move the pen across the drawing pad, and watch your

pen strokes appear on screen. You can use the buttons

along the sides of the pad to manage and enhance your

creations. Decorate your picture with the Draw, Spray,

Frame, and Reverse tools. Use the Erase tool if you

make a mistake, or touch the Erase All button to start

all over again from scratch. The Save button stores your

artwork in the Gallery, while the Load button opens it up

again so you can continue to work on it later. Press the

Send button to share your drawing with a friend!

DRAWING PAD TOOLS (USED IN DRAW AND

E-CARD MODES)

Hot Keys

Save

This button saves the current picture or e-card. If the

memory is already full, it will overwrite the oldest saved

creation. You can save a maximum of three pictures

and one e-card.

Load

This button loads a saved picture or e-card. In Draw

mode, keep pressing it to scroll through the pictures

you’ve saved. You can only load your own personal

creations. The pictures and e-cards you’ve received

from others are saved in the Gallery, but they cannot

be opened with the Load function.

Frame

Press the Frame button to add a frame to your

picture. Keep pressing it to scroll through the many

frame selections until you find the one you like. Or,

if you prefer not to have a frame after all, just keep

scrolling to the end, and you’ll return to the “no frame”

background.

Reverse

Pressing this button reverses the colors of the dots

on screen. White becomes black, and black becomes

white!

Draw

Touch this button to bring back the Draw tool if you’ve

been using the Spray or Erase tools. When the Draw

tool is active, the cursor appears like a pencil on the

screen. Press and hold the CHECK MARK button

to draw.

Hot Keys

Spray

You’ve worked hard to make your drawing neat and

precise. Now mess it up! This tool sprays dots in an

uneven pattern as you move it along. When the Spray

tool is active, the cursor appears like a spray can on

the screen. Press and hold the CHECK MARK button

to spray.

Erase

Use this tool to fine tune your masterpiece until it meets

your high standards. When the Erase tool is selected,

the cursor will appear like an eraser on the screen.

Press and hold the CHECK MARK button to erase

Erase All

Touching this button is like tearing the top page off

a drawing pad to start fresh on a new one. It clears

everything from the screen so that you can start over.

Once you’ve pressed this button, you can’t get your

old work back, so if it’s something you think you might

want to see again later, make sure you save it before

hitting Erase All.

E-CARD MODE

On those special occasions when a simple message or

drawing is not enough, say hello with an e-card. Scroll

through the e-card templates by pressing the right

and left arrows. Touch the drawing pad with your pen

or press the CHECK MARK button to select. A short

animation will play followed by a blank screen that you

can decorate however you choose. Save it or press

the Send button to share it with a friend.

Hot Keys

GALLERY MODE

Come here to view your saved drawings and e-cards.

You can collect both your own personal creations

and those that have been sent to you by friends. The

Drawing Gallery holds a total of six pictures (three of

your own and three shared pictures). If you already

have three of your own pictures saved, when you

save the fourth, it will replace the oldest of your own

pictures. Likewise for the pictures that have been sent

to you by others, when you receive a fourth picture, it

will replace the oldest picture you have received. The

E-card Gallery works the same way, but the memory

for your own creations is limited to one e-card at a

time. When you make and save a second e-card,

it will replace the previous one. You can also save

three received e-cards for a total of four e-cards in

the Gallery at most.

1 PLAYER MODE

Choose from ten fun and exciting games in this

mode. Practice on your own to sharpen your skills,

and challenge a friend when you’re ready for some

competition!

2 PLAYER MODE

Press the 2 player button for some head-to-head

competition. Choose a game and press the Send

button to invite someone else to play. Your friend will

see a small player icon in the upper right hand corner

of their screen. Once they hit the Receive button, the

game will begin.

Hot Keys

NOTE FOR PLAYING 2 PLAYER GAMES:

• The infrared sensor works within 10 feet and 30 degrees of distance.

• Please play in an area free of infrared disturbance.

• Please avoid playing under direct sunlight since this can also affect the

signal.

GAMES

GAME 1 - PATCHWORK

given time limit. Press the arrow button in the direction of the covered half

to take another look. If you finish before time’s up, hit the Send button,

and watch the picture come together again!
