Re: [Tuxpaint-users] TuxPaint won't save

[Kirsten RK <rot...@gm...>]

Hi Sharon,

There is the little program *Configure Tux Paint*, which should be
installed together with Tux Paint.
Have you tried it?
With that program, you can point to a directory where Tux Paint should save
the files to.
And there's a lot more you can configure with it.

​Good luck,
Kirsten​
