Hello all

I was just reading a thread where some discussion over the flash pen tool was taking place and I am curious to know what everyone thinks.

I personally have pretty much given up using the flash pen tool altogether except for simple shapes and straight lines. I can’t stand using that stuping mofoing thing!

What’s your take?

EDIT: Illustrator’s PEN TOOL ROCKS!
