If anyone wants an alternative to Photoshop, check out Sketchbook Pro from Autodesk. The interface is really bad, but actual drawing feels and looks way better.

Stupid question: I just got a Wacom "Bamboo Fun" tablet. I got the small one.

Anyway, how do you enable the pen pressure sensitivity? I have Photoshop CS2 and I'm able to draw, but the line is uniform thickness. I changed the settings in the brush pallet to "pen pressure" and downloaded the newest driver from Wacom's website.

I'm running Windows Vista on a ~1.5 year old Dell laptop.

Dumb question, but have you restarted your computer?

Edit: VVV Nope, mine's an Intuos 3 (Model PTZ-430, whatever that means), and its buttons are all on the left side, where my meaty hamfists smother them with reckless abandon :( I hadn't thought about turning it upside down, though...I'll have to see if there's an "invert" setting somewhere...

I'm left handed and I've never touched one of the buttons accidentally. I have disabled the touch strip on that side, though.

One of the big differences between some of the entry level Bamboo stuff and the more expensive tablets is an eraser on the pen. If you do a lot of drawing/inking/painting, you might find the lack of eraser annoying.

I thought they had an eraser, but they weren't pressure sensitive?
