If your serious about art and have the money then get an Intuos.
But if your like me and find digital art to be more of a curiosity than a full blown hobby then you might want to get a Graphire. |

I tend to agree with LeChuck. I got a graphire several months ago and it works just fine for what I do with it. I plan on doing the digital art thing for a living, but until I get skilled enough to get a better tablet, the graphire is good enough. |

i bought an intuos and it works great.i never had problems with it, worked from the first moment on.
i bought an intuos because of the size mainly. i looked throug a lot of my sketces and they all fit fairly into the size of a 6x8 tablet. so i decided going for the real thing instead of the small graphire.
it's just the question how much you'd like to spend on it and how much drawing, painting etc you like to do.
for a lot of work, the intuos pays. |

Hey there fellow artist. Im new in the field, and I bought my Wacom Graphire after many many many months of anticipating it. I finally saw an open box display version for sale, so I just had to get over the fact that people had touched the tablet before I had. But there is no problem, I have an extended warantee on it because its open boxed, and the size is fine. The price jump from the graphire to the intuos is quite large, so its really dependant on how serious you are. I only doodle on my free time, im not a digital artist by any means, I would like to learn though. But until I get serious, the graphire will do fine for me, and im sure itll do fine for you to. |

i have expirence with the graphire, and i use it, and it works well, and i do this sort of stuff for my job and such, and this is a super run on sentence, and it all depends on whether you got the money for the intous (sp?). the intous can be bigger so thats always a plus but if your carrying around your laptop everywhere leave your intous at home and use the graphire because its smaller. um yeah
wacom is good though so ...... im gunna do somthing now...........that made no sense, dont pay attention to this post ahhhhhhhh ![](images/smiles/icon_eek.gif) |
