Autodesk SketchBook Pro


SketchBook Sidebar
Autodesk Sketchbook is a drawing program.  It's geared more towards.. well, sketching.  I'm not really that type of person, but this software came with my Bamboo tablet so I decided to try it out.  Any sane person would notice that this program is extremely simple.  Maybe even more simple than Paint, the drawing program built into many PC's.  Things which are simpler than Paint are rare.

To the left here are many simple tools, which are standard for most drawing/vector/graphics programs.  The tool selected, as you can see, is a pencil tool.  This suggests that the tool being used right now is thin.  The next few tool are all for brushes.  Experiment to find your liking.  Also to the top of the screen, when you open the program, is another toolbar. It also has simple tools.
The rounded triangle tool towards the middle, as I have discovered is the smudge tool.  The raindrop shape is a lighter smear.  The triangle on the second to last row is the sharpen tool.  As you can see at the top portion there are two buttons; the right is obviously a lever, and it determines how wide the brush you are going to use is.
