Hi there...

Really very new to the whole icon making hobby. However love all the amazing tutorials people do, I am however having major problems getting my layers to fill/flood with colour. I don't think I'm doing them properly, I'm making a new rastor layer and I try applying the color codes in the 'highlighting in layer palettes' however it really just isn't happening. Am I doing something wrong?? Does anyone know any tutorials that explain this method better?

Thanks so much, greatly appreciated. I'm using PSP.
