Wacom Tablet
It was suggested that I post here about the Wacom Tablet that I mentioned in another forum topic.
Here is the link to the other topic: http://forum/everything-else/4208-ph...-class-on-line
And here is the link to the Wacom Tablet: http://www.wacom.com/bamboo/bamboo_pen_touch.php
It's an awesome tool that I use to audition quilting motifs on a photo of a quilt top. At this point, I'm just using Microsoft Paint, but am looking forward to being able to do more when I understand the Photoshop Elements software that comes with the Tablet.

I found I needed several days of learning how to use it to make it do what I wanted and the "help" buttons in the software were pretty good for all the software so far, but I frequently wish I had an expert I could turn to and ask "how do I make it do xxx". The tutorials on CorelPainter http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satelli.../1171405215200 are also very good.
Margo, I'll have to learn how to audition quilt designs. I have to figure out the quilting on my Knight quilt, particularly the sky and rolling grassy region. I normally just plunge in, but I need to figure out some better than average stippling/fill patterns for those areas.
I think the tablet will eventually result in advancing my art quilting enormously. I "painted" the horse and the face of the knight and printed it on fabric for applique. I found it was a little less intense than I wanted even after I increased the saturation, but that I could double print it (run it through twice) in my HP 9800 printer and it really did a great job on the fabric.
Isn't the new technology fantastic?

Yep... wacom is going to be the best bang for your buck. I currently have the 3 year old XP-Pen Star 06 painting tablet to do my photo editing in Photoshop. Provides for far more accurate retouching. I also no longer use a mouse and use the stylus for everything.
