People seem to appreciate the Paint vids more. Some of you will be glad to know that I now have to use it on my course and will start to incorporate this into more of my videos! I don't use a graphics tablet. I don't even understand why people seem to assume drawing with a mouse is hard. I used a normal PC mouse on a desktop computer for all my old videos, and a laptop touchpad for all the new ones.
