Recently I received a drawing tablet. For those who are unfamiliar, they allow you to draw on your computer. But after getting it I was unsure of which software to use. So today I am going to break down all of the software that I have tried recently and tell you what is good and what is bad about each. I will also be breaking down which operating systems they work on, and their prices.

But an important part of starting a website is selecting your domain name. A domain name is the address of your website, and it is how people will find and access your site on the internet.
