The Last Poster Wins! [v23]

[Neo Emolga]

Yeah I think that's the right thing to do.

In other news, I got a tablet yesterday! No more trackpad art for me! I'm entering the big leagues now!!

You had to do your art on a TRACKPAD!? :O

Tablets are awesome. Heck, it's what got me to get better at art. Drawing with a mouse is just a joke. It's possible, but it's an abysmal experience.

Back around the 2012 days and all when I played PC games and had an old laptop. That's pretty much all I used was a trackpad for anything. Yes, that even means games. I did not like using a mouse for games. I did find it easier to draw or play games with a trackpad for some reason xD.

Now I play games and all with a wireless mouse, but anything you do with more precision or draw out. Trackpads work best.

Oh yeah I play most of my games with a trackpad. Sole exception is League because it's pretty much impossible to play otherwise. But Smite, Gary's Mod, etc. all with trackpad.

Yes! Pretty much any art posted before yesterday was drawn with a trackpad. And if it had writing in it, that was done with an external mouse.

I'm still not great with the tablet. I'm learning the ins and outs of pen pressure and what not. But for the most part coloring wise it's good.

Oh no, even League I played with a trackpad once upon a time. It wasn't easy, but I made it work. When I do play it now it is with a mouse.

Ow. Ow. Ow. >.<

You get used to the tablet. Practice with it, do some doodles, mess around, it will feel right the more you try it out. As for drawing stuff, I prefer to use Paint Tool SAI, but then I do the colors and shading in Photoshop. But you can easily use one or the other, it's just a preference thing.

Well since I have a Mac, Sai is not available to me sadly, so all my work is done in photoshop.

[Chakramaster]

Man I wish they still sold Photoshop in a single pack. Not with this whole Adobe Cloud thing. It sucks how it is now. Trying to give me a 48gb temporary file with NOTHING saved on it. :( I wish I could get it working.

[Neo Emolga]

Yeah, I hate how they made it a Cloud subscription now.

Thankfully I still got my copy of CS6 when they were still around. Otherwise I would have just shopped around for CS5 or CS4 and just roll with that.

I've tried searching online for someone selling one. It's pretty much nonexistent now sadly...

Yeah, at this point I think it depends on how much you trust Ebay. I found CS5 on another site, but it seems a little fishy. It's labeled as "Not Secure" and the domain name in the address gets all funky. I wouldn't risk it.
