It takes just as much time to learn Photoshop and Lightwave as it does to learn Gimp and Blender.
#TIMOTHY PIXEN FREE#
if its to engage others, I'd stay away from most Free and Open Source apps.īTW - I cut my teeth in 3D using POVRay on a 486DX (it was soooooooo slow on the SX), so I hope I'm geek enough not to be considered a troll. If the goal is to engage geeks - this is a good idea. To a techie? its a bit infuriating at times because you can't do everything you want to do, but to others its a godsend if you can afford one (that and I generally have a terminal window open at all times so the interface doesn't get on my nerves so bad :-)
#TIMOTHY PIXEN MAC#
And I use a Mac for my personal needs - why? because it was set up to be invisible to the end user. I run a programming / research office for my university, but I still make more money through music activities. I'm on the other end.I'm an artist first and foremost, and a geek secondary. I've seen a LOT of great sutff come out of it, but almost always, the person on the other end has been a techie first and foremost and an artist second.
#TIMOTHY PIXEN SOFTWARE#
I've shown them things like Gimp and they just scoff - and its understandable why they do so.į/OSS software is generally software designed by geeks for use by geeks. I've got good friends that make their entire living with this stuff.
