Hey gang, do we need an alternative for Adobe softwares? I feel like I would like to try something else.

need?

I dunno, I am asking. I feel like i need something else.
We all think Adobe is the best just because is the only one on the market.

do you mean 'need' the way you need an iTouch, or the way people in less developed nations 'need' inoculations and shit?
Just measuring the desperation.

... and they bought the only other one worth a shit.
OpenSource tools 'work' but UI is horrible and makes my work much more difficult.

My alternative is "borrowing" Rand's work.

I mean, need another soft for graphic design and development.
Adobe doesn't change to much in the last 2 or 3 years.

i would look for new graphics apps but i'm to busy reinventing the wheel.....

It's not the 'only one on the market' at all and the reason it's a standard is because of evolutionary selection - it's either out-competed its rivals, or consumed them.
Not to say that's the way things should remain - just that that's the way things are.

So if things are like that, you think it should remain like that?
Adobe "eat" the rivals just because they want to add a slowly process in develop the new versions. This is my opinion. What is on the market now near Adobe is pure crap.

"What is on the market now near Adobe is pure crap."
Agreed.

Ok yeah Adobe is cool, is good, everyone use it, but i don't think we should think: "Ok this is it, if adobe can't do much let's take what they offer". But anyway probably the potential rival must have like a lot of money to be able to make at least what adobe did till now.
But I was wonder if you feel like you need something more?
