JE\'s questions

[junior elf]

So my questions (there are going to be more later) here are \"what do you use with your computer, a mouse, trackpad or Graphics tablet?\"
I myself use the trackpad on my laptop (would use mouse but I don\'t have one ), and sometimes a Wacom Bamboo Pen Tablet when using Gimp.

And secondly what does Photoshop Elements do more than Gimp, as I was thinking of maybe getting one?

Thanx in advance!!!

well i use graphics tablet mainly

and unless your sure to dish out a couple of hundred quid for photoshop then i would stick to gimp, do you actually need photoshop? if you only want it for editing pics of your minis then i would say stick with gimp

Both a mouse and a tablet are plugged in, and I use the mouse primarily. The tablet I really use only for illustrations in Photoshop.

@Sg: Photoshop elements is only £60 and I want to use it for more complicated stuff, like making digital art like THIS
(I know what your thinking, if he thinks he can make that he must have such a high self-ego, but I what I mean is that I\'m going to try my best to get as close to that as possible+I just wanted to share that pic with the rest of you because it is just wicked )
But I still would like to know your opinion as to if I should get Elements or not, bearing in mind I\'m probably going to swap my current tablet with Bamboo fun, which comes bundled with Elements and Art Rage 2 for only £20 extra.
So, my actual question is, do you think it is worth swapping my current tablet with the Fun Version or not?

Thanx again

I use a digital mouse for gameplay, general stuff and vector work, a pad and stylus for digital painting.

@freak: yeah, and I want a buggati Verron but I don\'t need it cause I can\'t drive!

btw: I\'ve just noticed that the pressure sensitive stuff don\'t work on Gimp, even though they are supposed to. Does anyone know how to fix this?

edit: This threads name has been changed as I\'m asking so many questions! lol

yeah but i can draw, but a tab costs a lot more than paper... and i can nick paper from work
