Looking for graphical design software

Sjaak · Mar 12, 2008

Heya fellas. For a marketing project im trying to gather information about large graphical designer software prices. This is to determine the starting capital needed for a grafimedia design company. Now i've come up with flash/dreamweaver etc. and they can all be had in "Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium" for 2600 euros, but there is obviously much more similar software out there, unfortunatly i dont know many..i figured on a forum like this there must be some design-o-freaks around that can give me a list or so

If you want cheap get rhino 3d and flemango.

If you want off the way crazy expensive get 3dsmax

Unless your lucky like me and find a student copy for $200

Wikipedia is actually quite good for comparisons like this. For example, here is a table comparing many different raster graphics editors like Photoshop, Corel Painter, GIMP, etc.

Hmmm I thought he wanted a 3d software not 2d? my bad.

Then I go with Frodo's suggestion Coral Painter, and Photoshop.

Also check out the stuff from right hemisphere ( its a mix of 2d and 3d )

Also check out Z brush

A whole 15 minutes? Dear oh dear -- whatever shall we do?

Time is precious to some people. You could write a haiku in 15 minutes.

Adobe software is pretty much the standard. That and Quark Express make up the vast majority of professionally used tools by graphic designers. Other tools exist but they definitely not what you'd call standard... though you will find some successful designers, artists, and illustrators using other tools. When it comes down to it creativity and your ability to present the information is key, but having tools that everyone either expects or uses doesn't hurt
