  1. Have you seen this? http://www.wsj.com/articles/review-epson-kills-the-printer-ink-cartridge-1438683871 If I'm reading this right ( :huh: ) it doesn't look like they intend to extend this model to their pro level photo printers, and the ink (Bk, C, M & Y ) is dye-based - not pigment). But, It seems like a step in the right direction....
  2. :o Excitement: http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/07/30/apple-invents-stylus-capable-of-simulating-onscreen-texture-through-haptic-feedback
  3. Classically haunting! Very fine work!
  4. So happy to hear the news! I can't begin to imagine the difficulties you've faced and overcome to produce such great software- not to mention the high level of support that has followed. Congratulations to all - you truly have earned this honor! Well done, indeed!
  5. MEB, et al Hope I'm not "hj-jacking" this thread - but this is a related question: I love the control that painting with raster pixel brushes inside vector shapes provides. (I find it difficult to get the same effects with vector). But I don't really have the "big picture" yet. For example - I know that enlarging rasters compromises quality. Any basic advice on using the two (vector and raster) together in an image? Any pitfalls to avoid or things to be aware of? Many Thanks! O.
  6. More specific rumors: http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/05/03/apples-129-ipad-will-feature-bluetooth-stylus-force-touch-nfc-more-source-says
  7. alanateal, There have been some more rumblings today about the rumored iPad Pro. Unbox Therapy has a video speculating on its size (iPad Pro - How Big?) https://www.youtube.com/user/unboxtherapy It would be bigger - but apparently not large enough to house the new PowerWall battery ;) from Tesla http://www.teslamotors.com/powerwall :P Seriously though, good luck with your studies in graphic design! It sounds like you are really excited to get going.
  8. Thanks, Cgko! :) Wonderful illustration!
  9. Love it! Would you mind sharing what dimensions you specified in settings when you began this poster?
  10. Wondering if there will be any tablet (or other graphic related) announcements this upcoming June at WWDC...
  11. It looks like the latest version of Yosemite (10.10.3) will support Dell's 5k display (Dell UP2715K) on the Retina 5k iMac (27 inch, Late 2014). (The Mac Pro (late 2013), also supports this display with 10.10.3). The Dell UP2715K is a dual cable display, (It requires two Display Port cables connected to get full resolution) Not sure if that would cause any hiccups - seems like a bit of a workaround solution. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT202856
  12. I'm not sure either why your consultants would recommend a second monitor. Did they say why? A quick caveat before you buy: I don't think the current iteration of the 5k iMac can drive an external 5k display. :( (Please correct me if I am wrong). So, if you were to acquire a 5k iMac at this point in time, your second monitor(s) would have to be a lower resolution than 5k. It could be the upcoming iMacs will have USB-C connectors capable of driving external 5k monitors.
  13. Affinity Designer is running great on my late 2009 27" iMac. (2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 processor and 8 GB DDR3 Memory). It's always tricky knowing when to jump in on a new machine. (There are already rumors that an 8k screen is in the works!) It seems that no matter how hard we try to keep on top of it all, whatever machine we purchase ends up being a block of ice that quietly and dutifully "melts" into obsolescence over the period of just a few short years. I'm kinda waiting to see what happens with USB-C. It might turn out to be a port that would be good to have on a new machine. But having said that - the 5K looks spectacular. Here's a 5 star review that seconds Achim63's first hand experience: http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/11/10/review-apples-27-inch-imac-with-retina-5k-display-
  14. Hi Skalrus, You might want to check out ronniemcbride's thread "What tablet do I use?". https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/3121-what-tablet-do-i-use/ (Its in the section under "Resources").
