Do I have a defective one? Does anyone else's picture disappear after seconds of being drawn on? Also, our grid is not straight.

It sounds defective to me! We have had no problems with ours and have to rough young (2 and 5 years) boys that play with it!

MINE DOES THE SAME THING!!! I was wondering if it was defective as well. The whole screen is very dark even with nothing on it and when you write on it, it starts getting lighter and lighter. I think I may call the company to see what the deal is. Our regular magna doodle doesnt do this.

hi -Ive been looking online as well. I found a thread on conceptart.org and it looks like the clear replacement IS a smooth one. I'm actually about to order one, if you want to wait a week or so, ill report back to confirm if this is true ;pit's a lead at least, so im gonna see if it's true or not

Yes, i am using the multi out for power. I have noticed with this camera a vertical line that moves left to right. I thought maybe the power source, but tried a different one at 1 ampand still there. Doesn't affect picture quality tho. Maybe someone else has a fix for the vertical line?

It sounds like there is a prob with the pixels.. i would return it, and get a replacement.

I've had that issue from time to time and I am able to get it to work by disconnecting the USB and re-connecting it again. Try that and then start again, once the program starts to work I leave it running until I am finished, even if it's for a few days. Also, don't worry about the picture quality on the screen viewer window...the final JPEG you save is good quality.

Mine came to me fine. My 5 yr old nephew has transformed it, and it was as it hould be. You may have just gotten a defective one. Contact the seller to see if they can help you with this matter.

I haven't but make sure you draw your image backwards. I have used Stamps tho and it works.

The one I received was not glued on the top and I could slip a small picture in it. Perhaps someone got carried away with the glue. Try taking a razor blade and gently run it under the plastic along the top.

I am having the exact problem here. We're on our 2nd and not exactly pleased. Help us dazzle pro!

Sounds more like a software problem then something with the laptop...but, it could also be a graphics error. I haven't heard of this issue though, not on this computer. Good luck!

I am inclined to think something is wrong. Mine has a nice picture. I did no adjustments on my monitor. I kept the factory setting because the picture was great.

Hopefully your first notes / drawings that are stuck on there at the moment are nothing embarassing!! :-) Make sure you push the button at the top down very firmly, it's an actual button, not touch sensitive like many other gadgets these days. Possible you got a defective unit too - nobody beats Amazon about making returns easy and fast.

J. Richardson - we have had a few ask this or a similar question - but no feedback yet. If you would like to experiment with it we would be happy to offer you a full refund if it doesn't work. Thanks, Don

Have you tried any older systems to see if they look okay/have lag?Anyway, thanks for the info! I may have to go for this, although I'm a bit nervous not being able to return it if there are dead pixels or whatever.

Hi for some reason I can not upload my image. But yes it does fully decline. Sorry, maybe one of the other users can help with an image. I will keep trying to upload. Thx, Dave

I get horribly wavy lines when I draw a straight line at slow to medium speed. I also get them drawing a perfect circle with a circle template. I am RMAing mine as we speak for that reason.

I didn't have that problem but there was a glitch in mine which made my screen flicker. I believe that it's a manufacturing issue. If you can't get it to work, is send it back and ask for another one
