I finally got the money and decided on a tablet, and got it!
I've been asked to say what it's like when i get it, so here goes.
I got a Pen and Touch Bamboo tablet, because the price was not too far from the Pen tablet and it has a lot of time savers like the eraser end and buttons you can program as shortcuts built into the tablet.
I'll have to agree with other buyers when they say that the pen holder (basically a little tab that you wouldn't think serves any purpose) is basic. But as long as you don't try and whip out the pen, it keeps everything together.
Something that definitely is a plus is that you can hover a little over the tablet with your pen to move your mouse around and you don't have to keep the tip on the board.
Think about it.
What if, every time you lifted up the pen, the mouse would disappear, and-
ugh, that would just be a glorified Etch a Sketch.
10/10 so far, i'll try and post if there are any glitches or anything, but so far the most compliant piece of software i have.
hmmm, i guess i'm not MIA anymore? yay!

Yeah, so I've decided to go AWOL for a while as far as my art submissions are concerned. A friend told me that, if i wanted to be a good rep of the art portal, i might want to work on my art a little.

okay, maybe a bit harsh *my tank and harpoon gun are sitting in the bottom of the Chesapeake. worthlesss!*, but criticism helps us grow, right? at the moment, i am setting up my own Wacom Tablet fund. hopefully, once i'm drawing on the computer like i draw on paper, i can make some cool stuff. it's something to think about, and why not? i always wanted to have a graphic tablet as of last month!

so, overall, i will be checking up my account and newgrounds, commenting on awesomeness levels, etc., but the only submissions you will get out of me will either be photos/scans of my hand drawn art or the art i make once i achieve WACOM TABLET AWESOMENESS LEVEL!!!

in the meantime, you guys are awesome! i've got so much help in navigating my account and finding the things that are obvious to other people but, well, i guess i'm not other people.

thanks, and good night!

It took a while, and a lot of worrying if i rated them properly, but I finally got all of my Daily Retribution comics in! I hope you enjoy them, and tips and comments are greatly appreciated, I'm prepared for the criticism *armed with my tank and harpoon gun*.

As you might notice, I have added some new art! Of course, I then got into a frenzy and wanted to upload tons of it, but I think there was a rule somewhere (AND I CAN'T FIND IT!!!!) about submitting a lot of art. So I'm holding off until sometime tomorrow. If you like what's there now, don't miss out!

Inspired again! I'm making art and drawing stuff and wondering what to do with it all, but It's cool because at least I'm doing something. I can drive any marine vehicle (okay, maybe not a barge or a cruise ship, but feh) and LIFE IS GOOD!
Oh, and Newgrounds.
Newgrounds is awesome too.

Well, It's late at night and the end of a productive day! Time to kick back, reflect on Howl's Moving Castle, and dream about the animations that I...can't make. T_T
But hey! There's school to look forward to in a couple weeks, huh?
Right?

Yeah, it's time to go to bed.
