Is anyone using a Wacom or similar tablet to make adjustments to images using PS, PSE and CM? If so what are your conclusion. Good/Not so good?
Thanks Joe S

They are great - very fast, and it's easy to draw selections and masks and anything else requiring use of your full drawing abilities. For example, signing your name with the mouse is very difficult.
OTOH, I use the mouse for small precise moves where I need to be able to click and adjust to within a pixel.

I have a WACOM graphire3 that used a lot at one time. In the past year it has not been used at all. It all depends on what you want it for

Also, i have a WACOM tablet model CTE-440
I used it very less.
Oh yeh , for one thing it is usable.
There is a blue led on it.
When i change my Keyboard and mouse to the second computer ( i use a cordless keyboard and mouse) it is nice to hear a sound and/or see the blue light is stable after switching.
In the beginning i was to fast to use the keybord.
I had a great change then, that both, or minimum one become stuck.
So , i look with one eye to my blue led.
But sometimes my grandchild uses the tablet.
But she is wild, so i must stay near her.

LOL - those WACOM's are hard to destroy, and fun for kids. A friend of mine spilled wine all over my new tablet the first day I had it. He felt terrible, but it's fairly water (and wind) resistant and it caused no problems.

indeed,
there is a plastic cover over it. But it is my idea that the pen is fragile.
So, my grandchild ( 4 years old) does not hold the pen, like everyone else.
Also, she may not thrown away the pen, like she does with her colored pencils.
