I'm not saying for a second that artists shouldn't be respected professionals. I'm saying they tend not to be: my mother was a professional artist until she got fed up of trying to make ends meet and got a nice boring conventional government job and did her art as a hobby.
Yes, agreed. It's not worth getting too bothered by it ;)
So artists and designers aren't? There might be a few folks around these parts that might take issue with that. I was once an artist, and that training has been of significant value, in my engineering.
I list Adobe Illustrator as one of the 4 applications that I use every day (along with Xcode, BBEdit, and SourceTree). It's what I use to generate graphic assets for my development work.
Anyway, we could dance this jig all day, and I don't think it would solve any pressing world issues. Not a big deal. We don't need to prove anything to each other.
