Anyone serious in Photoshop should be using a tablet. PERIOD. An I am willing to step out on a limb and say that this statement is Kobi™ approved

If you have any specific questions, shoot me an email cause I don't get the time I used to for this site.
Yea I know, I want one so bad. Kobi recomended one a long time ago. Since I loaded the drivers and software for this mouse, then now it is much more tolerable, so I may flip for a tablet instead. I'm just tight and don't like spending $200.

That might be, hadnt thought of that.

I am tight with money too....but I don't think I or Kobi can stress enough about how beneficial a tablet truely is for Photoshop work. I am able to cut images out in a manner that I never thought was possible. The 1024 levels of pressure sensitive brushes is mind-blowing. Personally, I will never use a mouse again for Photoshop.

Thats pretty much what Kobi says too.

I will swing by Best Buy this afternoon and see what they got.

Is there anything to look for, or anything to stay away from?

That's the Intuos (sp?) lineup. I opted for the Graphire series with a measly 512 levels of pressure sesitivity and think its more bad-****. Plus, it's bluetooth and I gots no wires at all!!!

EDIT: The Graphire series also saves you a few bucks.

You are correct, I have an intuos 6x11 pad...paid about $300 for it.

....the graphire 6x8 bluetooth is around $225 and gets the job done just as well.....I just opted for the more sensitive tablet....

Holy Shista Batman, I dont know if I can bring myself to dish out $300..... I'd have a heart attack.

Yea but that was for butt seks with her, I'll pay for that.
Gotta have priorities... If I gave $300 for a tablet I couldn't afford the women.

Weekend was good, I'm acutually sorta still in my weekend, I had a 4 day weekend. Worked all through it but thats how it goes.
