I got a Bamboo fun tablet (4x6) for Christmas, and here is my first attempt at using it.

Yeah, I still need a TON for work!

Hey that's pretty good, you should try using the Gimp to color it.

I may later, since I drew it in Gimp.

Not bad, and congrats (?). Tablets take a bit of getting used to, but just keep practising with it. I personally can't draw worth squat if I put my tablet on the desk where my keyboard is... I have to kinda sit with my knees up and balance/squeeze it between my thighs and stomachs to use it. Anyhow, what I'm getting at is that you should maybe try using it in some different ways if you feel uncomfortable using it one way (though you seem like you have good enough control of it already).

I actually find it feels best when I hold it like I would my clipboard, in my lap while I sit Indian style.

I use my tablet like that sometimes, too, but I personally find it to be too wobbly/unstable... or maybe I just need to bring my knees closer together when I'm sitting like that to give it more of a flat surface to rest on. Well, whatever works, haha.
