but i have to say that a lot of the comments here focus on software knowledge, but that doesn't make you a designer, everyone with a bit of brains can learn most applications. It's the creativity you have to find ways to make these applications follow your concept is what makes you a designer.
once again, concept is king.
and i have to agree, there's hardly any designer that just finished school that's instantly been recognised as a great designer.
it's all about practical and theoretical exploration on a personal level. takes many many years...
so yes, the best (recognized) designers are usually self-taught.
and a lot of people explored their own field of design prior to or during school, which is a greater thing then just following what you are taught.
