In the vertical tool bar on the left side of the screen you will see a
Rectangular looking icon. Hold the mouse button down on this, you will see
another sub-tool bar pop out. Drag over to the Elliptical Marquee and let go
of the mouse. If you want to make a square, then just click on the
Rectangular Marquee instead.
Hold down the Shift key and move the mouse pointer over to your work area.
Now press and hold the mouse button and drag out a circle (Since you held the shift
key, it will make a perfect round circle or square for you). When
you have the size you like, Let go of the mouse button and shift key.
Look for the Swatches pallet on the screen, it will look something like the picture I
have. Go over to it with the mouse and select a color, I choose blue as my sample.
Click on the Paint Bucket in the tool bar on the left. Now click inside the circle you made
to fill it in with color.
Deselect out the circular selection by holding down Ctrl - D. You are finished.
