tttia Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 yes, you can get tablets from 80-100 bucks for the small ones, usaully 4x5. Wacom is the industry leader. There are a couple other players out there, and some might be good, but personally I am not sure I would take my chances with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrtyuin578 Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I have a Wacom tablet and I love it. It will run you about 300-400 dollars depending on size in the intous seris. They also have the graphire seris which is ceaper but not a good. Just see http://www.wacom.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeriath Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Wacom tablets are the way to go. My Graphire 4 XL set me back about ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã150, but it was definately worth it. The Wacom site has ben mentioned. Good luck finding a tablet :D Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pureleader18 Posted January 1, 2006 Author Share Posted January 1, 2006 k ty guys :) im on the site now but i dont know which tablet is which, i want a tablet so that i can draw on and make pixel sigs. and also go on internet... or can u do both on any tablets, i dont know much sorry :oops: :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Tablets are just like mice, but since it is a pen it is easier to draw with. You can browse etc with them. If you want to browse it is handy to have right and left click buttons on the pen. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrtyuin578 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Ya, tablets work just like mice only the drawing surface is relative to the frame. For example the in windows, the start menu is in the bottom left hand corner. If you put the pen down in the bottom left hand corner of the tablet the curser will jump to that position. It takes some getting use to, but once you know it it is really easy and you can use the pen insted of a mouse if you want to or when youm get a tablet use the pen insted of a mouse for a few days just to get used to it. Wacom's to seris of tablet are the graphire and intous. The graphire is cheaper and not as good as the intous but the intous is for more serious graphic designers. I personally think that the Intous is worth the money. But it all depends on how far you are willing to go with graphic desgining. Hope all that helps. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pureleader18 Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 cool, ty. i want to get a tablet for making pixel sigs and browse internet, so which 1 should i get? im not looking to make like abstract sigs, just pixel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrtyuin578 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Wellwhen it comes down to it...they are both very good. I really depends on how much money you want to spend. You can go to wacom.com and look at the differneces to see just how different they are and choose for yourself I don't know exactly want you want. But a graphire should be suffienct for most peoples' needs. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
