9? Get CS 2. Its the newest.

:lol: 9 = CS2 [/b][/quote]
Well no one calls it 9 and they release new versions all the time so I lost track of the numbers. Its called CS2.

What's the best kind of tablet to use with Photoshop? I can't afford an Intuos, so is I was wondering if a Graphire works just as good.

 

[Bloodlessr]

Well, Wacoms are the industry standard.

 

[drizzt_fan14]

So it doesn't really matter whether it's a Graphire or an Intuos?

 

[Bloodlessr]

I don't know to much about tablets, I don't like them. I can tell you that we use the Graphire at school here, they are more for illustration I believe.

I will say I don't think are worth as much money as they are asking. Have you ever used one before?

 

[drizzt_fan14]

No, but I'm thinking about buying one because I can't draw or color worth crap with a mouse, I'd rather use a tablet pen it seems easier.

 

[Bloodlessr]

Well its easier than a mouse yes but they don't work as well as you would think.

 

[drizzt_fan14]

Well, I'll never know unless I try. Everyone else I've talked to say they work great.

 

[Bloodlessr]

I'd recommend trying one out before you buy it.

ooh i know this is a photoshop discussion and i'm jumping in, but have you tried using illustrator for your illustrations? the pen tool is my best friend.

 

[Bloodlessr]

Oh of course, but with the tablet you don't really need the pen tool. I prefer the pen tool over a tablet any day though. Btw, photoshop cs 1&2 have the pen tool too so you wouldn't necessarily need illustrator but its worth looking into.

 

[AmelieMellow]

yeah, i've tried the tablet and i agree it's not as satisfying as the pen tool. but i'm an illustrator girl at heart, so that's what i mainly work in.

 

[dascoot]

I know this is gonna make me sound tardalicious but I can't figure out how to use the pen.
