my new toy (wacom)
well i was at bestbuy buying me a new external hard drive because i filled my old one... but i came across whats called a wacom bamboo penpad. it was 69.99. i googled it on my phone and thought what the hell lets try this sucker out. so now i am the proud new owner of one. and i must say it the one of the greatest things i have ever seen for graphic design. on the comp. i am literally in love with this thing. some notable features i have found that make it good are:
*install is very easy (except the autorun on mine wasn't properly done so i have to manully start the setup.exe) *after software is installed its plug n play. *in photoshop the pen is pressure sensitive and does stroke width based on how hard you *press down (AWESOME feature you can't do with the mouse.) *is like writing on paper so more fluid like curves then the mouse. *quick keys for making quick adjustments like pressing button on the pen that will do quick key for adjusting brush parameters, *is small and light weight for on the go. heres link to buy http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1192232279888 and a pretty picture. |

Re: my new toy (wacom)
yeha i was messing with it and it got me to thinking. hmmm maybe ppc turned into one ^_0 but drawback would be the pressure sentivity of this one which is the coolest thing ever.
yeah i thought about buying a big one but the ones with screens built in run about 999 dollars. and im like eh tempting but not yet :P |

Re: my new toy (wacom)
thanks for the great review monkeyxiv,
had one years ago and it has long died - now I am thinking I might just have to get another one. Looks like a good price too. |
