Well you scan it in, open it up in some kind of graphics program and colour over it. Most basically.

I posted this on the other forums but I'll repost it here too:

If you're wanting to color the lineart on the pc then you'll need a graphics program like Photoshop, Paintshop pro, Open Canvas or, if all else fails, MS Paint. :0

yup.. pretty much same as they said. You'll need a program to color over it with. Another free alternative is gimp, at gimp.org
It works on Any OS.

If you have accounts on places like Deviantart or Sheezyart you could search for PS7 coloring Tutorials for help on digital coloring. :3
