So, without all the bickering and blah..... What is your favorite design program?

November 30, 2002 10:45:07 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
I use PSP7 at this point but it is limited and I would like to try something new. I was pleased to see the post about Bryce thinking that comments would be made on everyone's favorite. It is hard for me to post because I am a face to face person " don't even like the phone much". I can't understand being picked on by someone I have never even seen. Pause... looking over my post for spelling errors...
Any who...what is the best?

Well, if you know of me at all, you will know that my answer is Bryce 5.
Now, sit back and watch all the nay sayers jump all over me.

*BOING*

While you seem to be somewhat decent with Bryce most Bryce work is at the level of fingerpainting, but with primitives. (ok, so a little jelously about my not having that program just leaked through )

I will say that I have recently purchased Photoshop 7 and Deep Paint, so now I just have to learn how to use them...

I love my PSP7.
I recently downloaded the Bryce5 trail version, haven't installed it yet.
After trying a couple of other 3D proggies, I am quite confident, that I won't be able to do squat with it.

Paintshop Pro 7 is my choice. I have Photoshop 6 but you have to go through so many steps to get a desired look. As for Bryce I have 4 & 5 you have objects to start with not like the other graphic programs where you start with a blank canvas.

Actually I should have said PSP 7.04. If you go to the Jasc website there is an update.

There were two copies of Bryce 2 put out, the first one was defective and you had to call them to send you the one that wasn't...

Don't really have a favorite image editor. It's just a software.
I use mainly Photoshop. Not because I think it's better that anything else but just because I'm used to it. I've heard great things of The Gimp though. If I had time at some point, I'd like to give it a shot.
Some of the best artworks I've seen were done with a combination of tools, not just one. I've seen very neat things with the Bryce/Poser/Photoshop combo. Nice landscape background done in Bryce, some creatures and animals done in Poser and some nice tweaking in Photoshop.

I downloaded the free version of Bryce yesterday, loaded it up, took a look and went HAH! I will have some reading to do before I can do anything with that one. I would love to try Photoshop but the price is way out of my league.

Hey Treetog how are you able to use different smilies?

I use Photoshop 5.5 for everything. I tried the later versions when they came out, but I didn't like them. I feel comfortable with what I have.

Photoshop 5 Limited Edition (The "Limited Edition" means that the tools are limited and that they removed a ton of stuff from the full version)
