Just wanted to get input from the experienced guys out there...

What tools do you use to create your buttons, animations, backgrounds and other goodies for your TPs?

    UI creation tools

    Illustrator

    Photoshop

    Paint Shop Pro

    and believe or not,

    my most valuable graphics tool: PowerPoint

    It's funny how some of the most basic inexpensive
    tools can end up being the most useful & valuable.

    Graphic Tools

    Take a look at www.ground-z.org/design.html. There are some interesting graphic tools, especially the 3D Button Creator.

    Mostly Photoshop and Illustrator. And many others, task specific. And here are two you might know about, but, just in case, they could fit in your toolbox:

    - GuiFX Copilot, especially its Logo Toos (saves so much time when flawlesly converting white background to transparency especially for TV stations). Unfortunately only free for personal use.

    - Maptunes Damage Control - Makes such a difference when optimizing gradients. (I am sure everybody has had the zebra gradients on low colour depth panels). And this one is Unlimited Free Trial (Nag Screen)

    I use The Gimp for all my graphical editing. For simple resizing and conversion (gif -> png, or whatever), I use IrfanView.
