    It wasn't until I used Paint Tool SAI, that I had fun learning to use my XP-Pen Deco tablet to draw. That's because the program is compact, with just enough features that are easy to learn and use. So, you'll find things like line-art layers with simple vector tools, masks, clipping and layer groups, but you won't find guides (except when transforming a selection) or rulers. But not everyone needs extra design features like that, just to draw what they want. SAI is a good application for a notebook or laptop, where you just want to draw something on the spot, and save it as a PSD file to import to other programs later. For what it is, SAI is a digital painting program, but if you want extra features like guides, animation, or even filters, this is not for you.

    I would recommend this software to any artist looking to grow and improve on their skills! The layout makes this software very easy to use. It's really fun to play with the settings and to just create, create, create!

    This app is absolutely the best! There are so many things to do, you can even use pixels! Many brushes, you can blend better, all by a click of a mouse and the use of a keyboard! I would highly recommend using this app for drawing.

    I have just started. Program installed easily. I am trialing using the pen to draw objects and save them. There is a tutorial on the web and I will spend time soon to learn more.
