Bamboo Fun Tablet

[debbie.]

Ok, first off i have never used a tablet before/dont know much about them.

I was thinking of getting one just to draw with and stuff like that. Does anyone know anything about tablets and what-not?
And if i got the Bamboo Fun would i be able to use it on the CS Oekaki art?

Thanks all for the help. (and for all those out there, i did try to look this up)

You can use the Oekaki with the Bamboo Fun. That's what I have and it works perfectly with it!

I have a Bamboo fun tablet.. they're great.. I've heard some people have problems with theirs breaking, but mine's lasted a few months now and nothings wrong..other then some of the stuff they put on the drawing area (To make it feel more like paper.) came off o__o.. I started seeing weird flakes when I'd wipe if off. (My dogs like to come and lay on it, and they're dirty. XD) I guess it's because I was a little rough with it? Hmm.
if it hasn't broken yet for ME though.. that's usually a good sign...I'm not always careful with my things XD
and yes you can use the tablet for the oekaki.. you can use it to surf the web, like I do sometimes! :]
The pen will control where your cursor is, kind of like a mouse...except for with a pen. C:

Of coarse you are able to use the tablet on CS oekaki. You can use them as a mouse as well XD.

Great artists on here like Toastberg use an art tablet

Yep, the FAQ even refers to a certain pen pressure plugin.

That happened to mine, too, now you can see shiny parts where I usually put the picture window in GIMP and where the scroll bar on Internet Explorer is X3

I got an ordinary Bamboo, because it was cheaper, and then GIMP, which is pretty much the same thing as photoshop, but free

Thanks guys! This is soooo helpful!Does the regular bamboo have the stuff on it that makes it feel like paper too?
