Biggrin Got a new toy to play with

Just received my new graphics tablet for messing around with Photoshop.

Wacom Bamboo



Its fairly basic but seams to work OK.
It's small, includes a zoom-scroll control button, 4 programmable tablet buttons, 2 programmable pen buttons and an eraser.
The pen also does not need a battery to work.

Since the company I worked for has packed up and moved to Poland, I now have plenty of time to learn to draw.

Tate gallery.....here I come

Got it off amazon for £42.00 inc p&p.
Apart from the drivers it doesn't come with any other software.
It is supposed to have 512 pressure levels but it is hard to keep a constant light pressure. I need lots of practice.

I have found a program called Gmote which allows me to customize mouse/pen gestures, so I can easily change opacity and brush width with a flick of the pen.
