There's a difference? Tablet PC's and PC  Tablet's?? -[ u]I R CONFUSED[/u] -

Haha. Tablet PCs are usually PCs engineered so you can draw right on the screen with a stylus pen. PC Tablets are pads connected to your PC through USB 2.0 so you can draw on the pad and have that come up on your PC's screen. It takes a little while to get used to, but it pays off. Look up Wacom Graphire.

I was thinking more on the lines of a Tablet PC recommendation then. But thanks for the PC Tablet recommendation,... I'll have to take a look at that too.

Look up the Cintiq. Beware, most quality tablet PCs cost a pretty, pretty penny.

Hmm, yeah, they want $2000 for the latest Cintiq 21UX which was made in 2005. Did price comparing online and it's all about the same price... I wouldn't pay that much for equipment that is 3 years old in technology. If it's that old it's probably still based on windows xp too. I'm looking more on the lines of something up to todays standards in graphics. If such a thing exists yet.

There are tablet laptops, too. Which work the same way but are just smaller. I have a feeling you've already looked into that, though.

I'm trying to check out the lenovo tablets here online from work, and not having any success with the website at the moment. I'm in no rush anyways though. Just seeing what kind of options there are out there these days.

That one deserves a place in the fan art section - Alec?

wow,  Vetehinen, that's lovely  :o one of the nicest tributes to the game yet. I'm very fond of b/w & grayscale art, I don't think anything is lacking from the lack of the colour here, it's filled with lots of light and mystery  :)

Thank you very much  :) Glad you like it b&w, I have a coloured version clearly in my mind but I fear it's beyond my skills (as I don't know how to paint like Silv or  do it with computer programs) ^-^

It has almost been a year since I bought this game, and I have enjoyed every second (I recently saw the first ending, and there's still the final ending left as I have found all the memories + of course much more to search). That's why making this picture was very important to me, like a gentle farewell to the Naija's magical journey of discoveries and adventures. So basically, my thanks in a form of a picture.

Other fanart-works really inspired me to try too, great works indeed. Nice to see so many different styles.

the top few inches of the picture put me in mind of folded silver cloth, an interesting illusion.
Very interesting point of view.

This one is a "ImageShack-friendly" sized picture, smaller than 1,53 Mb. If you are really interested, I have a much bigger picture saved.

That is simple stunning Vetehinen :D Perhaps if you really want to know about the use of colour I could help you out sometime and oerhaps even paint version of it for you? It would be quite simple to make an outline copy for painting :D You are very talented so you should learn how to use colour or you are selling yourself very short and I would be honoured to be able to help :D

I still have a very special image in mind for Naija but it's still floating around in my head at present ;D
