Please advertise at me.
Also, feel free to advertise art programs that work well with the tablets you advertise.
i don't like it when the lines i make don't show up on the screen

GIMP wasn't compatible with my particular brand of tablet, a monoprice, so I had to start using something else

Don't give shit to the best of tablets
That was supposed to be a snarky joke but for real it's amazing how reliable they are.

I also recommend paint tool Sai, it's more digital-painting-dedicated than GIMP or photoshop (and thus significantly pared back without filters or the like) but it does pretty good draws

if anyone wants to use gimp but has a tablet (e.g. monoprice and wacom) that doesn't work with it, give me a shout. I have a copy of the 2.6 installer here and that version works fine.
They're /apparently/ going to add support for those tablets in 2.10 but honestly that will probably take 10 years.

You think the FBI (PF?) can't see that shit just because it's in a small font? You're going down, criminal!

Christ yes to the bamboos. If the pen hadn't died on mine + the pens for that model weren't in production anymore I'd still be using it.

I have a graphire (bamboo before it became bamboo) and i've had it since i was 15? So a good 8 years. Still has the original pen, functions fine apart from the scroll wheel breaking a few years back and drivers and photoshop having a longstanding feud. I'm pretty pleased with it tbh. (wouldn;t mind getting a newer one that was designed when windows 7+ was a thing though).

Oh, right.
You're wanting a tablet computer and you're wanting to do draws on it.
Most people here are talking about graphics tablets, which are a peripheral device you plug into a computer.
Here's a list someone else compiled of good art apps for an ipad.

no, that is not it!! what i am saying is that the bamboos, nowadays, are not tablets. the tablets are called something else.

If it's your main computing device (perhaps because you're not financially independent and it was given to you) and you can't afford a desktop/laptop and drawing equipment like a graphics tablet on top of that?
