What about people who don't use Photoshop? Do you mind being transformed with lesser graphic tools?

Good to see others who dare to use other than the "main" tool - I use PaintShop Pro X5 here.

Questions for Michael.

The Dark Wheel was quite short. How long will the new tie-in novel be? Will it be aimed at all ages (in terms of word-choice as well as content)?

What are your thoughts on the realism vs. fun debate? Obviously the game is going to be fun, but are there instances where you think realism is more important?

Do the different variants of a ship (e.g. Basic/Long Range versions of the Cobra) count separately towards the 25 playable ships count?

Are there any juicy details you can divulge?

 

[Cathy]

Begs the question really if Elite : Dangerous is the current iteration (I really like the name btw) what happens next? ...

Elite : Dangerous-er

If Photoshop = Photoshopped ...
does GIMP = GIMPed?

How would Michael feel if he was GIMPed?

 

[Cathy]

I shall now avert my gaze. I don't trust any of you not to run with that one...

 

[Josh Atack]

It's okay Cathy, I think I have managed to kill the elite twilight thread...

 

[Listeri69]

You haven't we're just waiting for the next target erm member of the Dev team to make an appearance no offense Josh but your not quite as photoshopic as Michael

 

[psykokow]

[Zplintz]

Haha!

Like the Spitting Image puppets of politicians many years ago, these images are sticking - I may not be able to replace them with any un-shopped images. 0.o
