Hi finaly i bout meself a wacom graphire 3 classic, the a6 or a8 dunno the 90euro one the smallest ^^
Now i am having some "problems" I dont feel like it has many pressure levels, and i feel like the dpi is a bit too low ;/ when i draw i dont get fluwent lines but like i'm shaking or something. When i googled for this i found some forum saying in PS7 you need to add ps7 to the wacom list, well i dont see any program list ;o
Any help on fixing these PS7 settings? Or am i just crazy.

And one more thing I triend to fidn this paintingtips thread mentioned somewere, but i was not able to find it. I need some tips on wich settings are best to paint and wich to texture, having a hard time on this.

Thnx for your time [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I use a graphire 2 with PS7 and never had any issues with it. I've heard that your monitor can sometimes cause interference in the tablet, giving you the "shaking" your describing. Try moving the tablet away from the monitor and see if that helps.

in photoshop be sure to check "smooth" in the brush settings.

a good place to find anwers to wacom questions: http://www.wacom-europe.com/forum/default.asp

in future be sure to post a pic of a line instead of describing it :P

Try earthing the tablet and maybe less caffeine [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

Wow having it on a distance form my screen realy solved the jittering and KDR it wasnt the caffeine :P
that smooth option also helped a lot.
Thnx
Could yout wacom get damaged tough by laying around near your screen?
Though my pressure levels dont work at all, its like i got 1 pressure level :S or is this always like this with a small brush size? when i use bigger ones it looks to work better
Got any link to painting tips? Like opasity and pressure ect :O

You may need to set up the brush options in Photoshop to make the pressure sensitivity affect Opacity (it defaults to only have pressure affecting Size of the brush tool)

The options for the pressure sensitivity should be along the top toolbar, near the right.

MoP do you mean the opasity | flow settings? cant find what you mean if not.

Aaah - so you CAN tie the pressure sensitivity to opacity in PHotoshop? I asked this very same question over on CGCHAT when I first got my tablet and the general consensus was that it oculdnt be done [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Is the setting in PHotoshop or the Wacom setup screen thing Mop?

Badname, no, further to the right of that - there are a set of tabs, one called "Brush Settings" I believe.
Fat_Cap: I'd be severely surprised if anyone on CGChat told you it couldn't be done - it's probably the most-used feature of having a Wacom with Photoshop, apart from the brush size variance with pressure! The settings you want to fiddle with are in Photoshop - I always thought they were fairly obvious...
I can take a screengrab if you need it?

MoP

It's in the "other dynamics" panel.

Just helping out Mop here, there's a button along the top toolbar that looks like the tip of a paintbrush with a down arrow. It only shows up when you have the brush tool selected. It's called the "Brush Dynamics" panel. Click on that and you'll see three options (size, opacity, and color) for controlling how Photoshop uses the pressure sensitivity on the tablet. To use the tablet's pressure, set any of the options to "stylus".
