Re: FLASH: OT: Your Professional opinion...

[Al Rosetti]

bob, I'll try my best to explain my opinion on this


As for picking Photoshop......  I do it for only one reason.  It's the

industry standard.  Using the program that 99% of everyone else uses on a

daily basis has tremendous benefits like.....


zillions of plug-ins

zillions of people making examples you can learn from

zillions of people to help you when you run into a jam

all your friends are using the same thing

all your potential employers ask if you know it

if you're an employer all your potential employees know it so you won't have

to switch software


Paintshop Pro might be able to do everything Photoshop can do, but once

Photoshop became the standard it's the only way to go.  Now.... I'm not

saying that if PSpro came out with some very useful features I wouldn't buy

it for those few things it can do better than Photoshop.  In fact, it's

screen capture feature is pretty cool, which is the only thing I use PSpro

for.


As for picking Freehand over Illustrator....

I'd pick Freehand because FLASH is the standard for the web and both

programs work fairly well together.  I suppose if I was working in the print

world I'd pick Illustrator.


hope that helps explain my thoughts,
