    How come like nobody works with them on GR?

    I love my new one to death! It's beautiful.

    Not that I can do anything, yet, with it. But why dont more people use graphics tablets. Alot of us are very capable of buying them o.0

    Some more then others, of course.

    I've heard about these but not sure exactly what they do, I've seen work with it though and it looks great. If it's not too expensive I might but one, do you have a link with some info you could give me?

    I have a wacom tablet, the sensitivity and control is 100 times better than using a mouse, but I guess people just get used to what they learnt making sigs with initially.

    here, there, and sometimes in your backyard
    I plan on buying one since I mostly do my drawings in paper and I just can't use the pen tool that good, but not going to buy right now

    Expensive, really expensive. I want one, but the cost is quite high. 350 pounds for a "decent" tablet. =|

    i have one, but rarely use it...it's really annoying. If you pick up the pen, you have to refind the area you picked it up from, too much patience is required. The mouse is alot quicker. I use the pen only if i need to do small areas of an image.
