Tons of people asked me to make a tutorial for line art and coloring in photoshop, so here you go~ =3
A few people have requested a Flash drawing tutorial too, so maybe in the future.
This tutorial was made in Photoshop CS2 but it should work as far down as Photoshop 6. All the tools I used are the same in those versions.
Remember, this tutorial shows the way I color. I'd suggest experimenting with this process until you get a result that's nice and easy for you to do. Add more layers of shading, throw in some lighting, go crazy and come up with a style unique to yourself. ^^
To answer questions a lot have been asking:
* I draw with a Wacom Graphire 4 tablet.
* I didn't use the pen tool in any of this. That's...pretty much the point of the tutorial, to get around spending a lot of time on the pen tool. 8D If you don't have a steady hand or your lineart comes out too wobbly, keep practicing. There's nothing more convenient and time saving than a steady hand in drawing.

Yo don't know how long I've been looking for a tutorial for Photoshop on which the coloring style is like those who use paint tool sai! Thank you so much, and I'll definitely try this technique out 
that was great, thanks for help me so much <3
Very useful and easy to follow; thanks!
Nice tutorial!
Nice tutorial, and very helpful!
I have a question, however- for some reason, whenever I use the Magic Wand tool, it leaves a strange dotted outline around the inside of my drawings. Is there a way to get it to fully color in an object without this happening? If you don't understand what I mean by that, I can send you a screenshot of it. Please help! Thanks 0w0
Before filling in, make your selection and go to select->modify->expand and expand it by 1 or 2 pixels. That should help a lot!
Ah, there you go- thank you so much!!!
Absolutely loved this tutorial, granted I had to do this for an in class exercise but love that I'm getting graded for a form of artwork that I'm wanting to learn XD again thank you so much for the tutorial :3
