Mix pixel and vector

It's an age-old argument. Which is the better creative app: Photoshop or Illustrator? Some designers prefer the slickness and flexibility of Illustrator, and some are fans of the grain and texture that Photoshop provides. Arguments for both sides have their merits, but there is a simple alternative. Why not use both together?

By combining the power of Illustrator and Photoshop you'll be able to create even more dynamic and exciting images that will really stand out from the rest. You'll be able to utilise all the functions of both, giving you more freedom than ever to get creative. After all, they're only tools in the creative process, so why restrict yourself?
