Thanks for pointing that out. Sorry, I think their trial link expired. You can still go to http://area.autodesk.com/sketchbook and click on the software trials. Cheers.

Hi Jakub, IMHO, Sketchbook Pro may be one of the finest pieces of software ever designed (really!). I've used it on/off for years and it is a UX five-star. It is most viable for people who have an illustration, cartooning, artwork or similar background (and in conjunction with a pen tablet, such as a Wacom), but can also be used by those who can't draw a straight line or a stick figure, to save their life . . . and are just using a mouse. Ultimately, it is one of those magical applications that is neither too small or too large, yet can grow to one's level of expertise per meeting the interaction design, information architecture, user interface (etc.) demand. It is one of the few pieces of software (plus my tablet) that I get homesick for if I've not used it for a week. Glad you included in it your blog. - Andrew Schechterman (www.LinkedIn.com/in/andrewschechterman)

Nice to see others liking this tool as well. I guess it is a little hidden gem.

Totally agree with Andrew. Recently bought a Bamboo pen tablet for my 5.5 year old and she is having a great time drawing using Sketchbook. She has already saved over 300 drawings that range from bizarre to some very intriguing stuff…!
