Gregory's Server@doctormo @jlapoutre @rysiek @inkscape anyway, there's a difference between teaching a specific tool vs teaching the underlying concepts. Until that gap is bridged, people will come out of our higher learning institutions already locked into proprietary platforms. It's very difficult to get them to change once they're already comfortable in a specific workflow.
@doctormo @jlapoutre @rysiek @inkscape at any rate, I think this is a major factor in the perception that the Adobe tools are the only ones which are suitable. I worked for a number of years as a photographer and never found open source tools to be lacking myself, but I taught myself and had no prior experience with the expensive paid for tools. I also had a desire to use the open source tools because I believed in their goals, to be sure.
