Count me in and definitely invite Kit for this. But I must warn you that I only started working on it recently so I might not be a good challenge, but I want to join just for fun and to get my feet wet in the battle forum.

As far as Adobe/Macromedia - I think it really depends on your preferrence. I have been on both sides of the fence and I find it easier to work with the Adobe interface. Not that it’s superior - my brain is just hard-wired to work best with it. Sure, this program might have an extra tool that another program might have, but all in all there’s really nothing you can accomplish in that you can’t accomplish in another.

Photoshop 7 is actually much more powerful now, with vector, image slicing capabilities. It goes toe-to-toe with Fireworks. 😛

Well does anyone have any suggestions for a theme, I don’t use Illustrator at all? I wouldn’t want to pick a crappy theme, that wouldn’t be fun would it…

Yeah, I have only used Illustrator a couple times, not really sure what it is entirely capable of :-\

Maybe like a comic strip or something… with little vector characters and such ??? No clue…lol.

the category can be anything photoshop could be, except without any styles like say grunge or whatever. Anything can be done in illustrator it just has to be drawn rather than paste/copy edit.

the possibilities are endless _staring off into space_

just throw a category out there and see if everyone entered agrees, i think thats the best choice.

if not, hey, trial and error

🙂

**Idea 1:**  
Make your own species in Illustrator and then descibe him, or maybe even a little story about your species.

**Idea 1:**  
Make your own car of what you think the average car will look like in the year 2487.

**Idea 1:**  
Make an illustration resembling the difference between heaven and hell.

Which one shall it be?

wow Dan, not bad topics…i know i wouldn’t come up with anything.

my choice would be the new species, that sounds pretty cool. I’m not much of a futuristic buff, and the only heaven/hell i ever see in my head is the South Park, so i don’t want to be sued at all.🙂

thats my choice, but thats just one voice

_man that last line makes me look like a rapper_

yeah i haven’t been to this forum in a couple of months, basically because i went back to school and haven’t had as much time to work with flash anymore. but then ryan told me about the battles and such.

i’m down for a vector battle. i suck at futuristic stuff. but whatever.

i hate freehand 10, but you got to work with what you got. i may just end up making the paths in photoshop. who knows.

**let me know subject, time, etc!**
