Drawing does not work for me. I try to hold down mouse and draw, won't let me. Can't select colours properly.

What browser and version are you using? I developed the drawing tool using Chrome, tested in Firefox, and people tell us it works on the iPhone and iPad.

Also the game is 100% Javascript - if you are disabling Javascript it won't work.

Google Chrome. And I assure you, I have JavaScript enabled.

Do other drawings load slowly for you? Most images you see are drawn via canvas using the same code that runs when you draw with your mouse.

For example:

Let me know if those drawings load very slowly or not at all.

Anybody else using Chrome on Linux having this issue?

Nope, no issues with viewing them.

I just can't click and hold to draw. (Well, couldn't, haven't tried again)
