wanted:the perfect tablet

[nickless]

Hello,folks :wve:
i dunno if this is the right section but lets give it a go...

there are so many talented artist around here,who make gorgeous pictures.i assume at least some of them use a tablet when drawing in photoshop.

i'd like to buy a tablet too and since i don't know a thing about them i'd be thankful if you could advise me what brand should i select or atleast what i shouldn't :why: and i'd also want to ask if you make a line for example of the tablet do you have to look at the monitor to see what you've done or you see that on the actual thing?

oh and i want it just to coulour my pictures.nothing professional :)

okay,move it if necessary :) just gimme advice :D

thank you :)

Not that bad, £40 for a small one.

If you're only looking as a hobby, then the A5/6 would be best, and cheapest, just have a look around at the reviews for them.

a wacom?
I haven't got one yet myself, but i was looking into it as well, you could buy it online for more choice i suppose?

Yeah but if youre only using it casually, is it a wise way to spend your money?

Meh Im not your money manager

wacom is the best, there is a entry level tablet for guys like you called bamboo fun,and a slight better or so they want us to think just bamboo.
i use a trust 12x9 one,its not professional,but works good enough for me,only problem is the ocasional teleportation the cursor does,although it only happened while i'm not using but moving the pen over,and that it is a pain to do round things.
but here in brazil tablets are so overpriced that i had to get this one,that was still a bit salty.
but out there i recomend you sticking to wacom,the bamboo fun also has a neat new feature that the glass cover feels like a paper,instead of glass.

Definitly agree with the Wacom tablet

I stupidly got a large tablet, and it's a LaPazz

wacom it is :D now i just gotta find it :D
