If you’ve tried a number of sketch or paint programs like I have, you might already be too discouraged to try this one. But don’t be. This one’s different. Sketchbook Pro 7 has much of the simplicity of programs that don’t do half as much as well as the functionality of much more complex and hard-to-use programs, but it is easy to use and has amazing functionality for such a simple program. You can choose any size or shape brush, or you can create your own, and the tools are quick to switch to. I read where a pen device is recommended for this program, and I agree. Unless you’re good at drawing with your touchpad or mouse, a device that allows you to draw the usual way with a pencil-like instrument would be much better. I don’t have one of those, but I would definitely get one if I had a majori project to do in this program. The program is relatively intuitive, although there were some things I didn’t figure out on my own. Fortunately, there are a lot of helpful videos available for this program, so you won’t have any trouble. Check out Kevin Mellon’s videos on YouTube. If you’re an artist, I think you’ll find this program exceptionally good. Even if you’re not, you’ll have fun playing with this program. The main problem I had was that I received the product without the serial number and key required to get it started, but I sent a message to Autodesk, and the individual who replied stayed with the problem until it was fully resolved. I was impressed! I recommend this program, and I think you’ll be surprised at what you can do with it and how easily you can do it.
