I'm going to be starting to work for Power Sports as a designer and I offered to bring my own software but they want everything to be designed in photoshop. Page layouts, Brochures, Websites, Magazines, everything.

I tried explaining to them it's possible to do all of this in ps, but not logical or professional. They didn't care and want everything done in photoshop.

Any advice or opinions?

??

I use InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Flash, C4D, and more but those are the main ones. I couldn't imagine doing everything with just ps.

As a designer you should know companies are retarded and don't know shit about shit.

You're going to have to educate them. Explain how your way will be more efficient. Bitches like efficiency.
