I’m still using Inkscape and Gimp. I tried about every alternative there is but didn’t like any of them, all lacked something and Illustrator and Photoshop are just too expensive for a casual user. But this is a whole different story and I’m probably going to write about it on one of my next posts.

I knew about F10. I’m using active edges to do that.

You probably know that already but if you’re in cmd+tab and press arrow-up, or click on a dock icon of a running application while in Exposé the windows of that app are displayed. Or you can just click and hold a dock icon outside of Exposé.

Oh, and thank you for your comments.

Philipp Höhn :
Oh, and by the way, try F11

I mean F10. Sorry, typo.

And about Windows 7: I was trying to get hold of one of these pre-order copies that did only cost 47€ but they were sold out after like 5 minutes. Luckily, a good friend managed to two get two orders through on two different sites and gave me one of them.

I’ll try to write my first real after the pause post this weekend.

Gimp is pretty easy to use.

I think some employers would care more about your ability to make quality graphics instead care about what software you use.

For example, if you design a website template for a company, the company will just care about how good it looks. I’m pretty sure the average Baker, locks smith, or auto mechanic who wants a website template for their website won’t care about what program you use as long as the template looks good, and is satisfying their expectations.
