For me and keep this to yourself :D I do all my work in Flash and then import into Illustrator for colouring and final touches.


I use Flash a lot not just for animation but also for illustratoring, Flash and my wacom tablet is all I need.. oh as mentioned above Illustrator & Photoshop.

:P

I design 90% of my work in CorelDRAW, then if need be, cut and paste into Corel PhotoPaint for web production...

Never lets me down! B)

For logos, its mainly Adobe Illustrator 10, sometimes Adobe Photoshop 7.

For other stuff that I do, I have Flash MX, Dreamweaver MX, Freehand 10, Acrobat 5, Quark Xpress 6, InDesign 2 and I'm trying to learn 3D in Maya... but that came to a halt when I get to the part where a 3 buttoned mouse is needed...

..I only have one. :(

Well for all my design work I use a very special tool not often heard of, seen or utilized, so keep it secret :ph34r: its called design outpost :tup:

Just out of curiousity a lot of you mention, dreamweaver, photoshop etc I was wondering how many of you actually own the full licence or are still using the the er extended 'trial' version. :blink:

Dunno - I was using it to do some digital painting and it started acting weird - the pen was becoming over sensitive and it just got progressively worse over the course of a few days.

I'm lookin' for a good price on the inutos 2, which I guess I'll pick up.

But yeah, I'm crushed. :(
