The Wacom Graphire 3 tablet that I have used for donkeys years is pretty much giving up the ghost now. I messed up the cable before because when I was younger I used to wrap the cable around itself when carrying it with my laptop. Unfortunately being the idiot I was I never thought that would knacker the cable. So sometimes I'd have to painstakingly adjust and move the cable around until I get a nice position and fix it there for the tablet to turn on and work. Unfortunately I couldn't get it to work recently, maybe I can still carry on adjusting and all that but it wasn't so much of a pain before. I just can't get it to work now.

So it's possible that it hasn't completely died but given the amount of effort I was putting into fixing it, it wasn't worth it. As sad as it is I think it's time for change! I'm waiting for my new Intuos 4 M to arrive now which should arrive Thursday I believe. So in the meantime I'm just doing sketches and plenty of planning for a piece of art. Looks like this piece I'm working on will be the first to surrender itself to my new upcoming tablet.
