So for those who draw their images on paper, and then scan them onto photoshop, what kind of paper do you use? I know a lot of people use official sketch book paper, and some use just normal printer paper.

Which do you prefer?

I'm new to the designing world, and I am in love with Threadless shirts. I was reading other posts, and I saw that a lot of you draw your own designs, and then use a scanner to put them on photoshop. You then proceed to color it on photoshop. Ok, anyways, on to my question...

How much did your scanner cost? I'm dead poor as of now, and I need a cheap scanner. What other options do I have to make designs on the computer?

Thanks!
