Sorry if this does not belong here I'm thinking about getting a tablet and a program called Manga Studio for my art. I wonder if anyone has heard about this program or has a tablet that they use for their art. I have places to buy them, I'm just not sure if they are worth the buy and I want to know if anyone has used either of these and how good is it.

As for the tablet, get a drawing one. Try to get a 6x9 for starters then move onto bigger ones. You won't be disappointed, I guarantee.
Moved_ Anyways, I heard they're pretty good. Although, I'd say you should get the laptop tablet, rather then the one that hooks up to your computer because it's much less of a hassle and easy for on the go. I'm saving up for one once I get a wii. Not sure about manga studio, though. But I'll say it's best to get a program for souly for manga\anime stuff, if that's all your going to use it for.
I always use a tablet for digital art myself, and if you are looking for a tablet you should investigate about them first - read the facts about each, read any reviews about them to see if they are worth your money or not. One tip I can give you is to find out how sensitive the pen is, it will make all the difference the more accurate the touch is. The one I use is a Wacom type. About programs, it depends what kind of art you want to work with. I think there are trial versions online that lasts for a month if you want to experiment first before getting a program, like with OpenCanvas. It would be smart to try out trials first to see which program fits you the most. I haven't used Manga Studio but I have heard of it. Like with tablets, I would have read more about different programs first + any reviews about them before deciding on something.
