How Photoshop is used doesn't really matter - it's intended as a photo editing product. Adobe already has an illustration / vector product and there's a reason they're separate.
- ThomPete 12y agoHow it's intended is most certainly what doesn't matter given how many people use it for other things than photo-editing.
- nkozyra 12y agoFirst, I'd say "most people" is anecdotal and supposition. Second, even if "most people" used Microsoft Word to build web pages I wouldn't treat it like a web IDE.
- ThomPete 12y agoWhich is why I never said it was that categorically so why the strawman? But you know being a designer having worked with designers, having had a large design agency and done some work for Adobe I do consider myself fairly informed on the matter. Whether you wanted to consider it a web IDE is besides the point. I remember the days when notepad was considered the gold standard. If it helps you get the work done who care about what it was supposed to help them with.
- orbifold 12y agoI think you possibly have a limited perspective on what people are using photoshop, I'm pretty sure every professional photographer uses it in some way or another, for instance as are print designers.
- ThomPete 12y ago?? I am saying it's being used for other things than photo-editing how is that a limited perspective?
