Thanks for the comment! I do use open source tools a lot, for example, I only use Ubuntu and Inkscape is my vector tool of choice. However, I do also use Adobe Photoshop 6 using CrossOver Office by codeweavers. Not that Gimp is a bad tool, I do use it for minor tasks, but I’ve got years of experience using Photoshop and switching tools is very hard when you’ve got that much time invested.
I’ve started using Krita some since its user interface and features are very familiar to me with my PS background. However, its still feels a little rough around the edges. (looks like a new version is available for Gutsy, so downloading it now)
Glad to hear you mention my comment on slashdot so long ago. Many times I’ve thought I should get something about that posted to the web. I recently did a mini-presentation of Inkscape for web-design at my Lug group and it was well received. I’ve got the graphics ready so just need to do the writing. Now that I know someone cares to see it I feel more motivated to actually do it.
