Let me paint the scene in your head for you
It'c a cold English Morning. Not freezing, not sunny, but cold enough to make the hairs on your arms just begin to raise. I've been out already this morning to purchase some fine tropicana orange juice. I got the original one, the one with the 'bits'. I bought the one with 'bits' to... I don't know, give me the smallest excitement that day. Anyway, back to my room. It's untidy, there's clothes everywhere. Shorts, coats, bags, shoes... remnants from the past few bloody MONOTONOUS days. I'm still wearing my beanie hat, my "happy time" bee t-shirt and my jeans. I'm chugging down lucozade and animating in flash. iPod playing every genre of music you can think of.
So I was animating... and I couldn't... draw... what I wanted! I can draw SO NICELY on paper. But for some reason, my tablet decided to act like a four year old child who'd JUST learnt the concept of naughtyness and... just wouldn't stop being an ARSE.

And then I was so fed up of erasing and drawing and erasing that I looked at my tablet. Like, LOOKED PROPER EVIL-LIKE. And I noticed something. There was some sort of cover over it. It had words on it like "annotate" and "microsoft word". I lifted it up and there was this totally clean surface. Like some sort of consecrated hidden object.

MY MIND HAD CLICKED! A LIGHT HAD SWITCHED ON!
I RIPPED THAT FUCKING COVER OFF LIKE A FREAKING MADMAN! AND I COULD DRAW LIKE I DREW IN REAL LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why didn't anyone tell me about this cover thing before?

So... moral of the story is: if you've been wondering why sometimes your tablet plays up and you just can't draw what you want - AND IT HAS A COVERY THING; rip that shit off.



You're welcome.
Midgetman flash is going fine BTW Just starting to animate the fight scene, so finding out this tablet thing was a godsend.
