I hope you find this useful.
Most people will tell you that the only tablet to use is a wacom, I disagree. I have used several different wacom tablets and also two cheaper models. At the level that I am working at I can see little difference.
At the moment I am using three different tablets and can recommend them all and they are all a fraction of the price of a wacom.
1. Is an A4 tablet by Medion which I bought from Aldi store for about £30.
2. Is a tablet that is nearly A3 in size and is made by Tevion, I got this at Aldi for about the same price.
3. Is an A5 tablet by Nisis.

All have the same number of sensitivity levels as a Wacom. I get on well with all of them and see no real difference in their use compared to a Wacom.
My advice for those of you that are struggling on using a mouse is to forget saving for a wacom and go for one of the above. You will not be dissapointed.
Has anyone used any other tablets or maybe you think I am wrong, I don't think I am.
I hope this will help some of you get your first tablet and get away from struggling with a mouse.

DO YOU NEED A WACOM OR ARE THE CHEAPER ONES OK

Hi everyone. I don't do many journals mainly because I have limited time on my computer, so when I do have a little time I tend to use it to produce images etc.

Hi everyone. I don't do many journals mainly because I have limited time on my computer, so when I do have a little time I tend to use it to produce images etc.

Anyway, to the point of this one.
  What is the best time to post an image if you live in the UK. I have found that some images that I post that I think work very well get very few views while others that are less successful seem to get a lot of views. I wonder if this may be down to the time that I post them.
  What do you think. Do you tend to post work at a certain time of day, one that you have found gets the most initial views and comments.

An example of this is the following image which I posted in the UK at about 6pm I then took it down because I saw a few things that I wanted to change, once the changes were made I put it back up at about 11pm UK.  The first time it was up it got 0 views tha second time it got 20 or more in a few minutes,

Hi everyone. I now have two pages on DA and have decided to separate them into one page that is for photo’s and and minor photo manipulations etc and the other for major manipulations digital paintings and darker and fantacy art.
  I am doing this because I know that some of my friends like the photography and others like the darker work.
  Those of you that have been kind enough to add me to your watch lists could you please take a few seconds to add one or both of the following pages to you watch list so that you only get updates on the work that you are interested in. If you like both then I would love it if you add both.
  I will not remove any work from my galleries but any new work will go into the gallery that it is most suited to. Sorry for the messing about but I think it needs to be done.
I would hate to loose any of my friends and watchers so please click a link.


:iconalanclimb:   THIS WILL BE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY



:iconf-stopped:    THIS WILL BE FOR DIGITAL ART, PHOTO MANIP AND DARKER WORK

Thanks
Alan

I have now got a nice layout for my journal and have put up a few of the images from my gallery.  Some are quite dark and scary but I have also added some of my photography work.

Just a quick entry to get started
