What software do designers need to design with?
Most designers opt to use Adobe designer software - this provides them with a full suite of design tools to handle almost any project on DesignCrowd. That is:
- Illustrator CS5 (http://www.adobe.com/products/illustrator/?promoid=BPDEG): Essential for entering logo contests, Icon designs, Business cards, T-shirt designs and Stationery designs
- Photoshop CS5 (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/?promoid=BPDEK): Essential for Website design contests, Wordpress, Brochure, Flyer and Packaging designs
- InDesign CS5 (http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/?promoid=BPDEI): Excellent for Brochure and Print designs
- Dreamweaver CS5 (http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/?promoid=BPDEC): Excellent for Coded websites
Essentially downloading the Adobe Creative Suite 5: Design Premium (https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=design_premium&promoid=FDTFM) gives a designer access to all design tools they need for any type of project.
If you are on a tight budget and don't want to spend too much money,there are some trial and free programs out there that are also used (not as much). See http://inkscape.org/
Note: On some projects, such as logo design contests clients will request a particular format and therefore these require different software and output files. For example, clients may require designers to use Coral Draw (http://www.corel.com/) and produce CDR output files.
