19th January 2012 - Testing the WordPress for windows phone app

I know I havent posted in a while but I’ve been quite busy with a new job.

Thanks for reading.

It is my first pen tablet so it has taken some time to get used to.

It seems to work well with Gimp. I especially like how it works well with pressure, so you can adust colour, size, opacity and hardness depending …
