I use Bamboo Pen by Wacom, which is the cheapest of the serie (about 50 bucks), but still works great
Wacom is the best brand for tablets. I wanted a Bamboo Fun but it was too expensive What tablet you have?

I have the SlimTablet 600U from AIPTEK and I have some problems with the pressure sensitivity settings. I followed the descriptions in the Internet but it doesn't work for me. But that's only in Photoshop, if I use the tablet for normal writing in this tablet writing tool thingy the lines' size and opacity changes depending on the pressure. Maybe I can take a screenshot later of what the lines look like in Photoshop ...

^^reeeeallyyyy cute, I downloaded it. Maybe you just need to change the photoshop brush settings? did you try that? Sometimes it doesn't work for me either, then I have to restart photoshop a couple of times.

Thank you, Eli! Glad you liked the video!
This is what the line in Photoshop looks like after I've set all the brush settings the way they should be:
I'm totally clueless. It seems like more people with Aiptek tablets are having the same problem but I couldn't find a solution anywhere on the Internet. The Photoshop brush settings are correct, the driver is installed correctly, I don't know what else to do. I just wrote an e-mail to the Aiptek support team explaining them my problem and hope they can help me ...
I begin to regret I didn't buy a Wacom tablet instead ...

I got myself a new tablet this week (Wacom CTL-470K-DE Bamboo Pen) and this is my first digital painting ever.
I know it's not perfect and I still have to learn a lot about coloring/shadowing but it took me three full days to make so I wanted to share it anyway.
