Someone’s got a Wacom tablet
So I’ve got a Wacom tablet at work. And I love the shit out of it. It’s not like a do a ton of drawing with it, I mostly use it when I’m working in Photoshop (which makes sense) and it adds another layer of control that I wasn’t previously used to.
Another thing, using a trackpad or mouse with my right hand all day is bad. I didn’t used to notice it but over the last five or six months I’ve noticed a dull pain in my wrist. This is an early sign of RSI (repetitive strain injury). As a heavy computer user I’m well aware of this problem. Wait what the fuck just happened. :B I somehow fell into a PSA about RSI! Haha, I honestly didn’t mean to do that.
I think my point was that using several different types of input is a good way to vary. So I use a trackpad, mouse, keyboard shortcuts, and now a tablet. Apparently you can also add testicles to your mouse a la “MouseBean.”
The main point of this post was LOOK AT THE DUMB THINGS I DO WITH THE TABLET.
Also a secondary point I’d like to make. I took these screenshots with a program called Skitch. It’s totally awesome! I didn’t like it at first but now I do. You have to register to be able to use it, but don’t fret! It’s free!
