Depends on what you want to do with it. Photoshop is the generally accepted standard, but Illustrator is proving better for vector based line art like mine… [http://kitiara.deviantart.com](http://kitiara.deviantart.com) ---

Edwin uses Painter, Photoshop and 3D Max. I use Photoshop, I love it. But I am really looking into getting Illustrator. For Vector work go with Illustrator, Fireworks or Freehand. For Raster work I recommend Photoshop, and if you use a Wacom drawing tablet then I recommend Painter. Just my two cents is all. ---

We should make a deviant art clan, me and kit are probably the most active ones on deviant art so maybe we can have 2 teams and me and kit can be the leaders! Just an idea concluded from the mind of an idiot lol 😛 ---
