I have to share with you- I was a die-hard Corel user, but using an extremely older version of Corel Draw. When we started our new sign company, all our design input was "use Adobe cs3/4, etc and Flexi-Sign."
So I held out for an extra year or two trying to use Corel. (While our designers and clients used Adobe cs3/4 and Flexi.
Well, after FINALLY getting tired of using an older version of Corel, and starting to play with Flexi, I started realizing that Flexi was just as easy as older versions of Corel Draw, and that Photo Shop is as easy or easier than Corel Photo Paint.
And based on our designers/recruiting feedback, Corel is not the software people identify with, as much as I love it!
But, I have to admit, I've taken to Flexi (no problem, it rocks,) and am really embracing Adobe cs3/4. It's not that bad, and even for a "non-designer," I'm getting pretty good at it!
Good luck,
Chris
