This isn't ideal.

I have an Intuos tablet, not sure the exact model right now, but it is about a decade old at this point. It's been acting up, not drawing accurately, so I decided to update the driver to see if that helped, but got this message. Buying a new one isn't really in my budget right now, but it doesn't work at all with this driver.

I mostly have an issue with vertical lines. Even with smooth assist on, the lines are really wonky (for lack of a better term) and I have to fight the thing to get it to draw what I want (or turn the canvas constantly). Horizontal lines are better, but occasionally have issues too.

Does anyone know some calibration trick that I don't? Or do I need to just bite the bullet and get a new one?

Found this today. It didn't have a lid, but that's ok. I wanted something to hold marbles. Also picked up the champagne glass for $5.

Surprise Finds!

Sitting at my mother in law's house digging through an old jar of marbles for the sweet glowing bits and realized that my bracelet I bought last weekend glows. It was from a crafter who was selling her whole lot for a dollar each trying to clear stock. Surprise! 😁

My local thrift stores are so abysmal if you want anything besides clothing, but I did find these 3 yesterday. Thankfully the antique places are better.

I found this at a local thrift store a couple days ago and initially left it behind because of a bad interaction with an employee. I kicked myself and sent my husband back for it. Luckily for me, it was still there. It does have a small chip on the under side of the tip of the leaf, but I don't mind. It's beautiful.
