So, I've been experiencing a bit of a problem with my pen pressure on my Wacom Intuos tablet. This has been occuring for quite a while now, and it's starting to get a bit irritating, especially now that I run a Tumblr art blog, and am unable to do my art because of it. What happens is when I try to use my tablet, the pressure acts as if I pushed down as hard as possible with the pressure, despite how lightly I push, but as soon as I move the pen, it goes back to normal. This happens with every stroke that I do. It looks like this:
It's getting in the way of my art, and I really need a solution. I've tried unplugging and replugging the tablet in, waiting a few days and trying again, and messing with the pen tip. I've been weary of doing too much, because I'm worried I might break the tablet in a way. Any ideas on how to fix it?

I just did, and it didn't do anything.

Hi CollaberalClaya,
Sorry for the pressure trouble. Have you gone through the Photoshop Cafe tutorial for pressure here? Customize Wacom pen and pressure settings in Photoshop tutorial - YouTube
Can you post a screenshot of what your Brush panel looks like in the Shape Dynamics section?
Regards
Pete

You might try replacing the nib of the pen. I've had crud accumulare just enough to make it act erratically. May not be the issue, but simple enough to try.
