A tablet is like a sheet of paper for your computer except the image doesnt go on the paper it goes on the screen. its really handy for making ur skins from scratch, atm im just muckin around with it but ill be makin some skins soon.

You will find a lot more information about that at http://garagegames.com/. I would look at the constructor info here. http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/Constructor and http://garagegames.com/mg/forums/result.area.php?qa=59

Well, I've had a bit of experience with constructor, and I can tell you that you are using the wrong program for making objects like tanks. Constructor is for making things like complex building structures, not simple object making. I'd say you should use something more adapted to your object making, like Blender for example. There is an extensive tutorial on Wikibooks that can get you started, and the exporter that exports the objects into dts (the object type TT uses) can be found here.

And if you really can't understand any of this stuff, start learning about what you want to do before you start a topic asking help. Or just admit that tank-making isn't for you.
