GRAPHIC DESIGN

[Black_Currant]

Well, I´d like to know if there´s someone who likes this amazing World. You know, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Dreamweaver, ...

[Megalomania]

I don't, but I know a lot of people that do.

 

Edit: This is a thread a lot of the artistic people go to

I do!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I do! And yes, we all go to the Siggys + Avatars thread. :D

[fietssleutel]

I've used photoshop for over 8 years now. And I played around a bit with Flash as well. :wacky:

 

At the moment I only use photoshop for editing photos, but I used to make a lot of avas and sigs. :nice:

[EmmaLouiseSmyth]

i do love it :nice:

but i'm stuck with an old version of photoshop with just the brushes and cutters it came with.

I need new photoshop :bigcry:

 

 

 

:tongue:

[Al-Hassan]

Gah! I tried Illustrator & Flash!

They're such a pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm no good but I love them :)

[Destrokk]

I would love to start on that.

[Darlene_Ihnfsa]

i got photoshop recently, for a work we need to do, to improve some old pictures of the family, but i hardly used it yet.

not much more i do know about it, or the programmes said.

 

my dad got another software that is for Linux, but i don't remember the name now, he said it have more and better features and options than the photoshop does.

[PolarMonkey]

i do! but i love web design more & whatever graphics i do tend to be for that purpose...

 

big fan of Photoshop, but in my Web Tech unit in my uni course this semester i was forced to use GIMP as the lecturer wanted us PS-lovers to at least try out GIMP and then decide for ourselves which is better & also cos he figured it'd level the playing ground a bit more as not many ppl use GIMP compared to Photoshop.

 

tho he did admit that Photoshop is the industry standard & ppl who are used to Photoshop are not likely to like using GIMP & vice versa.

 

@Darlene_Ihnfsa it's probably GIMP. or Inkscape. i don't really know of any other Linux-specific graphics editing software.

[Darlene_Ihnfsa]

i used gimp some time ago, must be inkscape then.

[Space Cadet]

Studied graphic design for a year a long time ago. ...and then did something else instead.

[Italian Plastic]

I love photoshop. Haven't tried anything else really. I'd love to try InDesign!

[the_gloaming09]

I mostly work with InDesign... it's great for type mostly.

 

I use Photoshop second, and then Illustrator/after effects/flash after that

[Cobalt]

I use SAI mostly

 

Seeing as PS was becoming a lumbering pain in the ass with tablet pressure and GIMP failed at ink work

[Black_Currant]

I like drawing with my Bamboo using Photoshop, but maybe it´s better in Illustrator.

Now I´m testing new brushes and you can make some interesting things.

I want to see what they added in the new version...

[Batman]

I'm a Photoshop-er, too :D This is the only graphic programm I use, but I intend to get into Illustrator in the future.

[Cobalt]

Illustrator seems to be really weird for me

 

I don't even know how to make outlines with it, it starts doing weird pen tool shit, ugh

[grids]

i think its very interesting to me. but i have no backgrounds for it :\

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I only use Photoshop....sorry for butting into the conversation. :P But Photoshop's the best. :D

[Batman]

But Photoshop's the best. :D

+1 :D

[i'maveryneatMonster.']

Illustrator is pretty amazing, but it's a bit harder to use than Photoshop.

I prefer PS tbh.

[Black_Currant]

Well, Illustartor isn´t harder than Photoshop but different. It works fine drawing ilustrations in it. It´s a powerful tool for traces.

[PolarMonkey]

was at the CS5 roadshow in Bristol today & i must say that the new Photoshop has some really nifty new features added in...tho i'm comparing it to the CS3 version i'm using now. but that Context Aware + the Puppet Warp stuff is coolness! (provided i have the RAM to spare...took a few seconds to process on the speakers' Macbook Pros as it is each time they used these features & turning stuff into 3D form) :bomb: :bomb: :bomb:

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I keep having to buy the new ones, it gets so unbelievably expensive. :uhoh::P
