Need recommendation on the first drawing tablet (PC)

Hello

I'm a web developer (I especially do the "plumbing" - PHP, SQL, CSS) and to work with the art has already received. I do various tasks in Illustrator and PS, such as the color correction or convert a photo to a logo art line, but until now, never done a lot of work "hands free". I think it is time to get a drawing tablet... as I read good things about the less expensive units such as Wacom Bamboo (finally). (I don't want to spend a ton of money on this, until I'm sure it's something I'll use productively-, who knows, I may - hate - the concept?) Or I can wonder WTF I've waited all these years for.)

To be clear, I don't need as a 'replacement of the mouse '. My primary need is to learn how to draw free hand online art - I mention this because a lot of video products seems to insist on the 'iPad' - for example the functions more than the real "drawing."

A few questions:

1. are there other brands/models (under $ 200) I should look seriously?

2 I was more focused on the largest bamboo... simply because all the artists I've ever seen work use big $1000 ones. But I've seen a number of articles where users/reviewers speak to being quite happy with the smallest unit for real drawing. I wonder if it is true that one is an experienced user... Is IOW easier for a noob to 'learn' draw on a larger Tablet?

Thank you

JC-

PS: I use a machine on XP CS4 and CS5 another - Win7. If all goes well, we can consider the drivers and everything is sorted for all these combinations, right?

Well, I didn't say 'poor' pressure sensativity. Just less sesnativity to pressure. The Intuos as 2048 levels of pressure and 5080 lines per inch. The Bamboo Fun has 1024 levels of pressure and 2540 lines per inch. What that means is how minute on screen change can be. With an intuous you get twice the pressure levels, so you can paint/draw with greater precision.

Of course, beginner, you'll never notice this difference and will be very well with bamboo. This isn't something you have to be really worried or concerned. But you can find after using bamboo for a while you want a greater degree of control, which may be the time to consider a different model tablet.

You will have no problem to do what you want with a bamboo.

  • You will need to disable the first 10 items?

    I have a new laptop and downloaded my first items 10 and Photoshop. However, I got a message when I opened the first telling me that I needed to disable it on another computer. But I can't figure out how to turn off!

    In addition, I don't know if it's connected with my need to turn off or if it's just the computer, but I can't use one of the links in the menu to create on the old laptop, and I can't connect to my Adobe ID on either.

    Can someone help me?

    PS: If it's important, all of my new laptop runs on Windows 8 and the old man is 7.

    Adobe permits you to use your first items purchased 10 on only 2 of your computers serial number. If you want to put this on a 3rd computer serial number you will need to 'Disable' installation on PC 1 or 2 to get this serial number of first Elements 10 purchased on computer 3.

    The message you get on computer 3, you are saying that your first 10 items is on more than 2 of your computers already (computer 1 and 2) and you want to install it on another (the 3rd computer).

    So, where you have first Elements 10 installed?

    Go to one of these first Elements 10 computer configurations. Open first items 10 to its workspace. Go to help Menu/disable and click on disable for this. Close to there. At this point, you can

    a. leave the program installed but disabled on computer 1 or 2 as the case

    or

    b. Uninstall computer 1 or 2 as the case mya.

    Please see the newsletter and let us know if the above is clear and works for you.

  • system crashed, I need to select the first boot device in the boot menu...

    my computer crashed and has a black screen I have reboot by pressing F8 and then to the start menu

    What now?  Press and hold f8 at startup takes me the blue screen with 3 options 1) esc = boot menu 2) f10 = set up 3) f11 = system restore.  I don't have a disk to restore the system or boot disk.  What should I do

    +

    Hello, thank you for using the Microsoft forums!

    What happened when you "press f8 and went into the start menu. ?  You should have seen the inscription as:

    'safe mode', "safe mode with networking", "last known good", etc. etc.  In these situations, it depends on what the computer or the user was doing when the computer crashed, what the line of resolution would result. Just from the top, select Safe mode and try to start.  If windows starts, there are probably a problem with drivers not loaded through a secure boot which only loads the windows drivers of base needed for windows open and run in a limited mode. While in safe mode, we will offer you the choice to use the SYSTEM RESTORE to restore your computer to an earlier point in time where everything worked well. In unknown situations, when I'm in front of a computer when you know not what caused the accident, I take a point of restoring older and not the most recent one, preferably a machine made on its own schedule, not a constraint by a device or driver installation. Note that a SafeMode restore is not generally reversible, i.e. canoe must be cancelled at the point before the restoration (in this case, the condition has crashed), yet other points before and after can be subsequently used.

    Once you have done this, or even before, if you would not rather try this again, you can use Event Viewer to try to find out what happened before the crash. Check the system and application logs, for the latest entries and repost here about this if you need help with the content of the newspapers, and we will try to help you. Alternatively, if you get it running, then you can visit this site to help you with additional questions. This is the new, free and fully automated from MICROSOFT support portal, and it can help you with most of the problems windows with a few mouse clicks.

  • Need recommendation about the hardware upgrade - Satellite U300-130

    Hello seniors and technical experts.
    I have Satellite U300-130 notebook. Then I put my Satellite U300-130 with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM and also I cannot add new hard drive. I mean I have 2 HDD in my laptop. Please need advice because I am not a technical person.

    Hey Buddy,

    I agree with the user above. You can use up to 4 GB of DDR2 RAM in your laptop, new DDR2 modules are not possible. I have good experiences with the manufacturing of Kingston.

    As far as I know Satellite U300 doesn t support two hard drives are not possible in Satellite U300. You can only exchange the current model with a bigger. ;)

  • Want a recommendation for a digital drawing tablet, $100 budget.  What do you use?

    Ive seen a few on ebay for $45 new.  I don't know how they are worth, and their specifications say 4000LPI.

    What is the resolution more precise to obtain, and are there brands or models that you prefer?

    I use a bamboo wacom CLT-460... They invite a little and you should be able to choose one for less than $100 second hand online.

    Wacom makes the most of the tablets, they work well with Mac or Windows and have essentially the market all to themselves.

    • Driver Windows can be a bit a guy with every ten shots to lose, but that's the only problem / bug I know.
    • Their customer service is *... their website forms do not work and you can register your products or email them as forms (that don't work) must be trodden out with your mothers underware color until you can do something.
    • Photoshop cs6 or cc in my Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 systems all are happy to use this tablet and apart from the above mentioned missing shots (thewitch is a long-time driver problem), the pens are great.
    1. Reguardless of the model to get a bamboo (= pressure pen), named one...
    2. the most recent themselves have more buttons on the Tablet for people with a mouse
    3. newer models have wifi for people who do not have a usb cable
    4. the biggest problem new user is learning to use a pen instead of a mouse... Unlike a mouse, you do not slide on the screen to get somewhere, but down from the top, above the area, working the edge of the shelf... it's hard to explain in text, but there are a lot of 'how to' unit on youtube that show you.

  • need help, erase the pencil draw request.

    How to erase any pencil drawing?

    Untitled.png

    my code

    import flash.display.Sprite;

    import flash.events.MouseEvent;

    var pencilDraw:Shape = new Shape();

    var activeColor:uint = 0 x 000000;

    var b:board = new board();

    addChild (b);

    b.x = 0;

    b.y = 0;

    var circle: c1 = new c1();

    addChild (circle);

    Circle.x = 50;

    Circle.y = 50;

    var bclean:bt = new bt();

    addChild (bclean);

    bclean.x = 0;

    bclean.y = 0;

    bclean.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, hbclean);

    function hbclean(e:MouseEvent):void

    {

    trace ("click button");

    pencilDraw.graphics.clear ();

    }

    circle.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startPencilTool);

    circle.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopPencilTool);

    function startPencilTool(e:MouseEvent):void

    {

    pencilDraw = new Shape();

    b.addChild (pencilDraw);

    e.target.startDrag ();

    pencilDraw.graphics.moveTo (circle.x, circle.y);

    pencilDraw.graphics.lineStyle (10, activeColor);

    stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, drawPencilTool);

    }

    function drawPencilTool(e:MouseEvent):void

    {

    pencilDraw.graphics.lineTo (circle.x, circle.y);

    e.updateAfterEvent ();

    }

    function stopPencilTool(e:MouseEvent):void

    {

    stopDrag();

    stage.removeEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, drawPencilTool);

    }

    If you remove the line that keeps creating new forms then your pencilDraw object will include all the lines so when you run the hbclean function to erase all the lines.

    function startPencilTool(e:MouseEvent):void

    {

    pencilDraw = new Shape();

    b.addChild (pencilDraw);  This could be moved to the original creation

    e.target.startDrag ();

    pencilDraw.graphics.moveTo (circle.x, circle.y);

    pencilDraw.graphics.lineStyle (10, activeColor);

    stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, drawPencilTool);

    }

  • need recommendation on the creation of information popup

    I have a form with many areas.  For a couple of fields, it is useful to provide a sentence or two of explanation for those who need.  However, I don't want to include the entire sentence next to these fields (since it makes the form look sloppy).  Instead, I would like to include a small graphic of question mark which when clicked or speckled on provides the descriptive text.  What is the best way to do something like this in Dreamweaver?  I wasn't sure if a JavaScript alert was the best way or not.  Perhaps as a small box to popup or something?  Is there something in Dreamweaver that is used for such a thing?
