which graphics tablet?

[poison-bananas]

i need some advice to make my final decision when buying a graphics tablet

im getting a bamboo

but should i get A6 size for £60

or A5 for £120 (which is double the size for double the price)

and will i need the extra size to draw on, do i really need double the size?

im not sure what the advantages of using a larger graphics tablet with flash will be?

anyone got any ideas?

It's all you. If you think you need extra space to make larger motions, then go ahead with the higher price.

However, also consider your desk space. Larger tablets will take a lot of space on your desk.

The only advantage to having a bigger one, is that you get to work bigger, which is more comfortable for most people. If the smaller one is any smaller than 6x8 or so, you should probably get the larger one. If the smaller one is 6x8 or larger, then that'll work good enough, but the larger would be more comfortable.

Desk space is also a factor you need to worry about.

Sorry for the double post, but 6x4 would work for the smaller one too. Not 6x8

Good choice, I bought the Wacom Bamboo Fun (medium) just a few days ago and it's awesome. It has a really modern feel to it aswell as being really thin, also the active area is textured to feel like paper which makes drawing feel a lot more natural. The A5 was the perfect choice since I usually use a big proportion of the tablet when doing big strokes but I don't really need anything wider.

Read more on my news post thingie, since I only wrote it a few days ago =]
