**** you, if you don't know how to draw with a mouse that's one thing, but don't go around saying it sucks because I draw with mouse. And I could beat your sorry ass with it.

I find mice impossible to aimate with. I can't draw a simple smiley face with a mouse.

okay, if you cant learn with a mouse first dont go thinking a tablet is gonna help.

back in the day, we used our bare hands to animate. think yourself lucky you even have a mouse.

Smoother line my ass, I use a mouse even thouhg I have a tablet.

Well I've got a good mouse and a crappy tablet, but it's the principle...
I used my mouse too when I still had a Microsoft ball-roller.

I've got a Razer now, the adjustment for sensitivity beats the crap out of any tablet[SIZE="1"]*[/SIZE].

if you're animating stick figures just buy the cheapest one you can find. you don't need a lot of pressure sensitivity or anything fancy.
