Adobe Muse - Good or Bad?

Posted 19.08.2011 @ 7.21PM (Edited 19.08.2011 @ 7.30PM)

@kipp_brady

::There's plenty of better text editors out there. I really can't believe anyone would use it unless they required the hand-holding it provides.

-----------

::Regarding Dreamweaver: I use it for hand coding and despite all the bullshit bloat it contains I love it for a couple of reason:1) Auto complete tags 2) Custom colours for tags and comments.

But honestly would love to know what other people use to hand code. Always interested in improving my workflow.

@jamesb You can be a master at both if you put in hard yards. Dan Cederholm and Shaun Inman come to mind. But I think a lot of designers would use this tool as an excuse not to get to know HTML.

10 things my hip hop magazine taught me

Posted 17.05.2010 @ 8.39PM

Hi Michael - it's been a few years since I published an issue. Mags are in the wars right now. As for adland, since I was 20 I've been in agencies of some kind. I used to work on my mag at night. I did have a year or two focusing almost exlcusively on the mag in my mid-20s though. Publishing is a tough gig - especially something as niche as underground hip hop... in the Southern Hemisphere. So, yes, having to provide for my family has definitely guided some of my thinking.

@Jamesb - Thanks for the note. Doesn't surprise me at all that a lot of designery types are into hip hop. It's cool like that.

@jamesb your best bet would be to contact Madman as they are the Australian distributor.

Strange illustrator question

Posted 03.05.2012 @ 7.49PM (Edited 03.05.2012 @ 7.50PM)

Wait what utoba78?

Theres elements on a bunch of illustrator files that appear white (because someone has set them at 0% registration - I think the person lost their job and they did this out of bitterness) so they are failing when they are going through an automated rip at the printers so I need to convert these 0% registration to white...

There not registration marks at all, they've just used the colour registration.

Strange illustrator question

Posted 03.05.2012 @ 7.40PM

Hey Jem, that is correct!

I'm sure there is a way of doing it but I haven't asked the help forums at Adobe yet but maybe thats the best option!

I just don't get why on earth someone would have done this in the first place though...

Strange illustrator question

Posted 03.05.2012 @ 7.08PM

Hey guys,

Don't know if anyone can help but I have about 300+ files in illustrator and some person has set a bunch of white items to registration but 0% (so it looks like white) is there a quick way I can run a script on this to convert all 0% Registration items to white?

I tried to record an action by finding one of these items set to 0% Registration and then change to white but that didn't work at all.

Thanks if anyone can help!
