True so true to be able to whip your device out and do a quick drawing. I love working on layers so that I can build up on something done quick and dirty to make it more like finished and heading towards good.

Not Apple related and I don't have an iPad but I dabble in the Art Academy app for the DS and DSi. Your quite limited in the size of the drawings (640 x 480 I think) but it does accurately represent real life drawing tools (in my opinion any way).

I enjoy the fact that you can carry it in your pocket and whip up a sketch while you're waiting at the Dentist. So cool.

The iPad is great I use it for all sorts of tasks. Taking the attendance register in class, looking up IMDB while watching TV, reading Kindle books, and drawing.
Good for watching movies too using airplay. I stream them from my iMac.

Yes sure professional artists will be happy to use a good app like this. There will be some that will stay stuck on old fashioned analogue ways. It takes all sorts..

Sounds like a great app for artists. I don't have an ipad, but this would be an appI would get for my daughter if we did.

This is pretty cool - almost makes me wish I had an iPad. Do you really think professional artists will use it?

Send me your drawings that you have done on your iPad. I will set up a page to display them

This was a very informative post. I am not a Mac person, although my brother-in-law is, and even works in an Apple Store in Albuquerque. I don't even own a "real" cell phone, just a tracfone, so I'm sooo out of the loop. Here's hoping your iPhone 3G keeps on going a bit longer for you. (from Blogathon)

Love the idea of open source encryption software - now I just need to convince my network to use at as well. Any tips on that?

Thank you for your tutorials!

Thanks for the reviews and information. I love my Mac but $250 is quite a bit for software.

Re: GPG Tools Free File Encryption software for Mac

Leigh — Sun, 20 May 2012 20:10:45 -0000

Wow! $250 for a piece of software that has a completely free alternative, who do they think they are... Microsoft? Just goes to show that it pays to look around before shelling out large sums of money.

I too have been tempted to switch to a Mac. It's good to know there's open source software available for it if I do. Nice article.

I am also a windows user but if the upcoming Windows 'Wait' keeps going in the direction it is, I may be buying Mac next. I want a computer, not a giant Windows phone.

Certainly you have to keep your eye out for the crap that might come in though Adobe product. So , great to to have flash disabled in the browser and for me the best and safest browser is Chrome. Google do a great job of keeping it up to date.

It's wonderful to see such a rich resource that lets people continue to learn and grow. The established university system is so expensive and not effective for everyone, so a less formal and more fun way to learn is a fantastic option.
