To all you talented graphics peeps, I have a question for you!
I only have enough money for one thing as of now, and I need to decide between a tablet or Photoshop. I found a Wacom Fun Bamboo Small tablet for $100 and Adobe Photoshop CS3 for $150.
I've been happy so far with GIMP, but I've hit a couple walls that are annoying me. First its a P.A.I.N. to even attempt to draw manes/tails. My only hope is to smudge them and that's hard if you want to change its look altogether [thus why I want a tablet]. Also YOU CAN'T ROTATE BRUSHES! What the heck? That has demolished all my appreciation for GIMP. haha. So what do you think I'll do better with first? I'm eventually going to buy both but...I'll need to save up again Dx.
Oh, and the tablet comes with Photoshop Elements 5.0. But it's the old version and I also heard it doesn't come with simple stuff like curves and color balance. Even dumb ol' GIMP has that x.x.
Opinions please!
