Honest to gods, this conversation happened today, and it may have cost me a job opportunity. The customer was super impressed with my menu design and animation, and wanted to know who we got it from. When I said I did it, their face lit up! Too bad as soon as i said GIMP, they weren't interested anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? What do you say in similar situations?
All, true, but I'd probably just say Photoshop, and they'd nod, and move on. It's pretty much a generic term now, anyway, like scotch tape.
