What programs do you use to create your files?
Friday, May 23, 2003 by Ice-Man6343 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I'm a newbie here and I'm interested in the programs you use for your work.
I mean, which ones for Icons, wallpapers etc.
I want to know the whole stuff, so please tell me. And sorry for my bad english, but I'm german, so...

Well, it's a matter of choice, and it depends on what you want to make.
For wallpapers, you mainly need talent. The tool you use to express your talent is your choice. A lot of people use Photoshop, some prefer Paint Shop Pro. Some people like to use some 3D programs, one popular one being Bryce. But beware of Bryce, although it's easy to create something quick with it, it takes a long time (months, or even years of practice) before you can actually make something nice with it.
As for icons, again, there are different options. A lot of people make the actual design in an illustration program such as Abobe Illustrator or Corel, then import them in Microangelo or Axialis IconWorksop to make the actual icon.
There is no magic answer to your question. And no matter what software you choose, the most important is practice and talent.

LogonStudio lets you create Logons, but you need a paint program (eg. PhotoShop, CorelDraw, PaintShopPro) to create and edit images.
SkinStudio Lets you create and edit Window Blinds, but again you also need a paint program to create and edit images
WallPapers Can be made with numerous paint or 3D vector programs.
Winamp Skins are also made with paint programs
Im not too familiar with Icons or Cursors, but I know there are some programs available for them.
I guess you have to first decide what you want to start with and experiment.
There are also many websites that offers tutorials for each program, and that can help you get started.
Good luck on your proyects.
