When I was looking for a tablet, all I heard from other digital illustrators

was dont

buy anything but Wacom. Now, Im telling you. Dont buy anything but Wacom.

Nothing comes close to the quality it gives you. I bought a 12x12 and after

finding out how to set up the

pen, I was in heaven. . I got the larger tab just to have the option of

illustrating larger images.

Not everybody needs it. The 8x6 is fine too and much less expensive. Wacoms

a little more expensive but worth every penny, everything else is simply a

waste of your time

and money.


for the ArtZII:

tip should be left click, front button should be double click and back button

should be right click.

After finding this setting Im simply in heaven and much more in control than

any mouse or trackball could give me.
