I recently had an old friend ask me if I still did graphic design. After a little discussion, a simple question was asked… “So what software do you use to do your designs?” Instinctively I started to rattle off a list of the software I use, pretty much as I would answer a twitter feed with a fellow tech geek. I assumed a sentence explaining what I did in each one would suffice, but quickly realized that it takes a lot more thought to really explain it. Just because it's second nature to me doesn’t mean someone else will “get it.” There is a reason, after all, that they asked the question in the first place.
