I know it's a chewed up subject, and probably not many people even frequent this section any more, even less with actual knowledge of the topics discussed here, but anyway:
Is it worth getting a bigger graphics tablet, or do people just buy the newer/bigger ones for the sake of having the new/bigger ones?

I'm only looking to use it with ZBrush4R6 and PS CS6. I was just gonna buy a cheapish one, small one of course, because of limited funds. Any suggestions?

just go with small one until you are good, sometimes you might even use it as a coaster, I recommend getting a 50$ coaster rather than a 500$ coaster.

Pretty much this. You can scale tablet surface according to your screen with the software from official site. Once you are good, bigger tablet means more fluid work (also those tablets tend to have bigger scale of pen sensitivity and relate better to your actual screen size, also buttons, color mixers, and other tools you might learn to use...

Oh. and buy Wacom, you can ask any pro on that. Worth every penny. I started of at a napkin size and upgraded up to a5 (a bit bigger napkin).

would try to snipe one on slickdeals or amazon
wacom is the best investment
i got mine at 99 dollars on amazon was worth it. intuos 4 small

best coaster i've gotten yet

For a first one, get something simple.

Sounds good, lets just hope you are not a lefty

They have separate wires for lefties for intuos it kind of sunk into my brain that they thought of everything even the weird people

Really! Sweet! Back when i bought it the only lefty tablets were bamboo ones

I developed a weird way of holding my pen back when i started using ink pen. It's still quite hard not to smear everything all over the page

How sensitive is intuos 4 small to touch? For example, if you touch it by mistake with your lower part of your palm or something like that?

only reacts to the pen

Ooooh, i thought yo uhad this one
