I'm not a real #artist, but I would like to try my hand at painting and drawing stuff.
So I want a #graphicstablet, with a pen.
I need one that works with #Linux, and I want something that works connected to my PC or #offline/on the go.
I do NOT want #android.
And I'd like something that is about or smaller than A5.

I don't think I'm going to find anything other than #paper 🥺

So I did try to do some #drawing in #krita with my new #graphicstablet.

I suck.

Well, I suppose I just gotta do it every day and be consistent, that's how I've always learned things :)

Sometimes this year long challenge has felt like being in prison with my drawing tablets, and I often think about what I'll be doing next year when I get out (when the challenge ends).

The 2025 20-25 Challenge.

This year let’s get better at something by finding a little practice time most days, in my case drawing. - Do your activity for at least 25 minutes, at least 25 days per month.
- Use the hashtag #20252025Challenge on social media etc to track your progress
- Also use the hashtag to cheer on others.

That’s about it!

Have fun with your activities, whatever they may be!

Drawing, programming, dancing, cooking, make up, reading, languages, gardening, mastering high fives, sewing, astrophysics, vcr clock setting ...

My CTL-4100WL Wacom tablet only connects via Bluetooth to the PC when my M650 Logitech Bluetooth mouse is already connected, like, what kind of bug is that?

🧐 For the first time I was able to install the drivers of my #graphicstablet on X11, I switched to Wayland since in this DSP it works well. Today in LMDE 7 Gigi X11 works well! 🤟 😎

Today's Art Fight is Sprinkles The Snake (JJDoodless). I was trying to imagine how this snake would draw, and I believe that they would be awessssssome at it.

New graphics tablet...this one is the XPPen Deco Mini 7 v2. I realized that I was really only using my ancient Wacom Bamboo(2010) because it was portable and Just Works. And that one has kinda poor specs relative to anything you can get today, the activation on it is very springy, the nib is very plasticy. I tend to hold the pen very light so I need the opposite, low activation and high friction. So I got this one and also a Pegasus minature and tried them both out. It's pretty good, pretty light activation and you can drag the side of the nib which is great to add fine control without tensing up. And it works on Android(IbisPaint X) with zero configuration.

For a sleeve, I picked up something at Daiso and added velcro dots on the flap to seal it. It's bulkier than the Bamboo sleeve but everything still fits. #tablet #graphicstablet #digitalart

This report about #Wacom graphics tablets is disturbing for a couple of reasons.

1. They are surveilling users of their #tablet - a human-interface device analogous to a mouse or trackball - recording every application you open, or when you switch between windows of different applications. They are collecting this data via a trip through Google Analytics, aka Spyware Central. There is no possible way to justify collection of this particular data; it is none of their damn business how long you have your drawing program focused before switching to your browser and back again. The author notes their privacy policy really doesn't describe this collection of data correctly, so there really can't be informed consent in the first place.

2. Why on earth is it possible in #Apple #OSX / #MacOS for a USB human interface device driver to capture this information in the first place? Apple shares a big slice of the blame here - this should just simply not be possible for the driver to collect in the first place. Having such a driver allowed to place outgoing HTTP requests is also a big "WTF are they thinking?" moment.

Wacom drawing tablets track the name of every application that you open | Robert Heaton

I have a Wacom drawing tablet. I use it to draw cover illustrations for my blog posts, such as this one.

@mykallykan It's the same for me. I have been using #Gimp regularly since 2007. At that time I also got my very first #Wacom #graphicstablet. And it worked smoothly on Linux even at this early stage! 😍

I still have to get used to working with #Krita, and I still have a lot to learn about it. But probably easier for me it feels easier to work with K than for you because I haven't used PhotoShop, Indesign, etc. before. :smile:

Still worth the trade though! :D


Yes, absolutely. And for me it's a lot of fun! 😁
