Re: FLASH: Should i get Photoshop?

[brzys]

Well this Gal thinks you're doing pretty good with the applications you

already have! So no I don't believe you should purchase PhotoShop.


On the otherhand, when I learned PhotoShop I was using it to illustrate in,

not just to manipulate graphics and photos. For that purpose alone it was

worth the purchase!

+

 Mind you I started in PhotoShop 1.0!


I was doing a great deal of Desktop Publishing at the time, and when a

client needed a custom made graphic I had all the tools necessary to

complete the task. Yes they have killer add-ons and filters, yes it's one

the best graphic software out there. Always has been always will be . . .


It's your choice . . .


cYa,
