Well, basically follow Midi's instructions. On some systems, maybe you won't see the pencil. I noticed that my paintbrush only appeared when the cursor moved outside of the map area where I was about to click and save my work. Also, he points out in the tutorial, that according to your system, you may or may not see the hour glass while the program is working. In my case, I do not see it. So, I am very careful to be patient and make sure that everything looks right before I move on to the next step. Save often.
