I am slowly cutting the Adobe cord. I have been paying over $57 a month for basically the same software Adobe offered over 10 years ago. Today I downgraded to a one product subscription, InDesign, which is really their best product for print design and page layout (at $23/month). But I need InDesign currently and will phase it out over the rest of this year and unload it from my graphic design software arsenal. I really resisted the subscription model when it was introduced ...several years back. But I need these apps to do my work. Now as I evolve, I realize that I don’t need to add a beveled edge, drop shadow and to warp my headline text to achieve good design. Actually having all these features hindered good design choices. So be it and good bye Adobe. I once loved you and your software. But alas you’ve bled me dry. Good bye to the laptop or MacBook Pro too! I only needed a laptop to run Adobe. Go figure. So now I am enjoying working with other software offerings that are more friendly and are subscription free. Some are also available for the iPad which is becoming my main mobile business and design tool. I like to draw and the iPad Pro lets me draw and conceptualize in a more natural way. Good fun creative ventures lie ahead. Connect with me if you’d like a cup of coffee and to discuss current graphic projects.

I like FX and coffee! Yep... #coffeeandfreelanceexchange
