Dvorak on 'Rinky-Dink' Software Rant

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the do-my-bidding dept.

DigitalDame2 writes "John C. Dvorak explores the trials and tribulations of photo editing software and why it's so difficult to use. Unless you are using these programs full-time, you spend a lot of time trying to figure things out. Is it too much to ask for a simple and powerful software program that can do the 45 things photographers do most in Photoshop?"

    So many of you people are fsckin liars. Photoshop uses pixels by default. I've never used anything OTHER than a pixel measurement except when I used to occasionally use it to prepare smallish poster prints.

    Doesn't show people pixels, my a**. You idiots.
