Wacom Wannabe
I'm thinking 'bout getting myself a Wacom-tablet. But I don't know exactly which programs are compatible with it. Is it for possible to do your inking in Illustrator with nice brush lines? Does the pressure pen work that way... or does it only work with painter... I'm tired of scanning and tracing my illo's..
Anyone?

Your not going to get a brushy look if you color in illustrator. You can use your Wacom for getting painterly effects in Photoshop ir painter. I did this one with my Wacom and photoshop

The tablet works in practically every program, though some programs support the pressure sensitivty more than others. Painter 7 and Photoshop 7 support the full range of pressure, and tilt variations. Flash MX also supports Wacom tablets now too.
I'd suggest one as a must-have to any artist. They're definitely worth the investment. I have a 9x12 and it's actually a pretty large tablet that fits in your lap. The 12x12 and 12x18 tablets can be unruly due to their bulk.

Yo MaximumFluoride, that's cool!!! I knew stuf like that was possible, that's totally awsome.. I was wondering if it would be a good tool for outline inking.
I found something on Wacom's Site: http://www.wacom-europe.com/uk/use-i...ware_atlas.asp but I can't figure out on what program the demo is based...

I know that in Freehand 10, the pressure actually determines the thickness of the stroke in the pen tool. Not sure about Illustrator.

pressure works to vary line weights in illustrator as well; you can make brushed and set up the range of width that will vary with amount of pressure. they have worked in illustrator (at least on the mac) for years.
