Just over here, brainstorming. When I create a logo, I usually sketch it out on my iPad (Procreate). Once I have that done, I’ll import it into Affinity and Canva. I like the ability to do all my vector and graphic design in Affinity, because it’s a linear application (meaning all in one). I use Canva for inspiration and anything that might require a little more elbow grease
With Adobe, you have to save/export to another application. With Affinity, you can edit everything inside of that application. Not many know this, if you have a paid subscription to Canva, you unlock everything inside Affinity.
I know a lot of people have relied on AI for image editing and creating. The problem, is that you usually have to try multiple times to get it right. You burn through credits and get hit with a timeout or a paywall (if using free versions).
In my opinion, working with a graphic designer will eliminate the nonsense, especially if you want something that is going out in public. Look, I’m not judging anyone who uses it. I’m just saying some of us have been doing this line of work, longer than AI. It’s hard to believe I’ve been at this for almost 30 years.
