not bad at all, much bigger than the one that they had last year.

Same spec as the Wacom Graphite I had 2 years ago, bugger to draw with I found however, good for coloring and stuff.

I'd really like this, I've always wanted to try computer art. Are these offers only available on the 24th of November or until the 24th?

Get their quick though, each store will only have a limited amount, if you are not there by the time it opens you'll probably find them all gone.

I can't live without my tablet. It's that essential to a digital artist.

So I don't have one of these store anywhere near me, but as it is i'd like something a little bigger anyway, could This be reccomended?

Well got mine the other day and just had a quick go with it. Now whats the best way to use one of these to aid me with drawing? Right now im finding it hard to use compared to a mouse because you have to move your arm so much more (i need a proper desk too now!) and its really werid hovering the pen over to an area rather than dragging it like a mouse.

So yeah give me some tips and advice on what i can use it to help me with to get better results!

Who needs a drawing tablet when you have Microsoft Paint?

[Tofu]

Some people place a thing piece of paper on top of the tablet surface and use the pen to draw ontop of that giving them more control. It wears the nibs more but it does help.

picked up one of these bad boys the other day its bloody ace

If anyone gets bored of theirs let me know please...

Even though these tablets don't officially support Macs, they do work straight out of the box, and are detected as USB tablets, although they appear in the system preferences as a mouse. Therefore they don't work in absolute mode.

You can download the USB tablet drivers from the Aiptek website, which give you access to all of the pressure sensitivity, absolute mode, and control panel buttons.

It's a steal at £25.

I got one!

Awesome deal and a nice size tablet. Shame the pens a little 'jittery' at higher resolutions though.....

i got a Trust one that i bought a year or two ago, for flash. Really good, much better than a mouse. I must use it again...
