♥♠♦♣♡♤♢♧♥♠♦♣♡♤♢♧♥♠♦♣♡♤♢♧♥♠♦♣♡♤♢♧ so i been thinking, followers and friends were telling me if i should get a drawing tablet or a graphic tablet,(because i use a 3ds to draw), but since i dunno it's functions, recommended drawing tablets and recommended programs, i wanted to ask to the people of here who is an digital artist:
1.- is any tablet compatible to any computer/laptop?
2.- do i need to get certain drivers or programs to make the tablet work?
3.- i'm really familiar with sai since i used it before, but any other programs i can use that are easy to handle? (please don't say gimp, it confuse me everytime)
4.- any recommended and cheap drawing tablet i could get without problems?
5.- is it possible to get extra styluses from that recommended drawing tablet? (because i love to have extras and usuallly i lose a lot of shit)
6.- can the drawing tablets have some protection, protection cases or bags? if so, any recommended one?
please i need info, recommendations and anything, you can share this journal to a good friend who is a digital artist too so you can help me~
thank you for your patience~

2 - The drivers are installed when you plug the tablet to the computer. But in case the tablet doesn't have already thr drivers, you have to download them apart.
3 - Beside Sai and GIMP there are also Inkscape, Firealpaca and Krita
4 - I have a the latest model of Wacom Intuos. It's the most cheapest of the brand, and it's adapt for the ones that approach to the drawing tablets for the first time. It's also the basic one, too.
5 - Yes, they can be bought online
6 - Yes, they can. There are bags for the tablets. There are protections too, but just for the ones more advanced that has screen on them.
For the one that I have, I got a bag that I can't find a link for your language.
I hope I have been helpful, bud ^^
The drivers should be installed as soon as you plug the device in the computer, but they usually come with discs.
I am afraid I cant help you much. SAI is gud tho, you could stick with it for a bit :o
That, I dunno. You can buy extra accessories online, along with protections.
