Re: Look at this vector program Sketchbook Designer
I think it comes down to the individual. Handrawn has suggested Manga Studio, many people like to use Xara for cartoons. Part of the decision comes down to whether you use a mouse or tablet and whther you like manipulating vector shapes or a more fluid interaction with pixels.
Rather than take someone else's advice, download some trials and see how you get on. You may well prefer Xara, or you may even adopt a hybrid approach using Xara with another program.
There is no "super" program that does everything well.

apologies to Sheff for derailing the thread, and to Xara too [this being the Dear Xara forum :o]
Ron - open a new thread to ask the question - I'd be happy to elaborate:)
Re: Look at this vector program Sketchbook Designer
Apologies if I've not understood something but cost being prohibitive has been mentioned in this thread.
Sketchbook Pro 2011 is about $50/£50
Am I looking at the wrong thing?
Are Sketchbook Pro and Sketchbook Designer very different things?

Yes indeed. These are different programs.
Sketchbook Pro is a Pixel based Sketching Program while Sketchbook Designer also contains advanced Vector tools geared towards Consumer-Good Design.
They among others allow fine grained control rework of Pixel Sketches for Transfer to CAD-Packages. I think everybody searching Cartoon-Drawing application could get cheaper and more suitable options.
