Hi guys,
I'm Richard, from The Netherlands, and I'm pretty much a rookie when it comes to graphics/photo design, but I do find it very interesting.
The reason why I'm getting in to this stuff; I just want to learn some basic logo design for my company (and website) and being able to design my own business card.
I only recently found out about Affinity (a few days ago), and the reason why I wanted to give this a try is quite simple;
Adobe's monthly subscription-model really put me off... specially since I'm not going to use this kind of software on a weekly base anyway, it would just burn my money away.
I read some reviews online, and Affinity Designer/Photo seem to come out very positive!
- I'm an iMac user myself, and Adobe just doesn't seem to be optimized enough to suit Apple's environment... something that (reading through the reviews) Affinity DOES seem to do.
Anyway, I probably have a very steep learning curve ahead of me, since I'm still pretty much a rookie (hoping it's not TOO steep), but I'm looking forward to getting the hang of this eventually.
Good to be on board.
