The pressure! It turns out that the most recent thing I did was the highlight around the image in the previous post, about Text Link Ads ... not exactly drawing. But, to get a good highlight, you can use the pressure of the stylus to give a lighter or darker line. Now, that is sooo nice ... OK, I'll try to put something together. I bought this so that I could create my own icons for a software product I am developing on my own, at home. Luckily, those are so small, no one can tell I suck at drawing pictures! :) Amy,

The stylus/pen makes it a snap! I used the original Wacom pads from old (about 2000/2001). They have kept the "power of the pad" in this 4x5 wonder! And the action of the sylus is still awesome. Shading around and image alone is just effortless ... You can have a fun time just trying different ways to draw stick figures! :) Oooh, the most fun is not having to mangle the mouse in some freak-show wrist movement to get a really nice arc or trying to use smudge, like with chalks/charcoal … ever tried to “flick” your mouse to get a short streak of a line?

Thanks for stopping by - and, adding to the _real_ blogroll is always cool! I have added you to mine as well. Just shows that we both like what the other one has to say - mongo-blogrolls just show we're in the same ... part of the blogosphere! :) Take care, man! :) Hey Mike!
