I got Painter 9 and an Intuos tablet for Christmas. I WAS PLEASANTLY SHOCKED! :D
Okay, this is my main and my oldest muse, Vixen. Or, if you want to use her full title: Vixen, Annoyance Extraordinaire.
She's an anthromorphic fox with a little bit of control over fire. She can drive just about anyone stark raving mad within hours of meeting them. I often wonder why I put up with her, strange figments of my imagination I have...

Lol, very nice. ^^ D'you find either programs difficult or... spazzy? I been lookin' at Painter 9 and now that someone on SotW got it, well... Curiosity kills meh. >.<

I'm no expert, but the Intuos is great. The mouse is really fast though, so I have to adapt.
Painter is cool, but i've never really used a program of that calibur before so I can't say much. It has a huge manual...
