Imagine not being able to be an artist anymore because there's a power outage.

What's wrong with a pad of paper and a pencil, for "artists".

Did Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Donatello and Raphael use ipads? No sir.

Donatello and Raphael would go for digital tablets and turn out some serious art, Michelangelo would sit on his porch and look disapproving, and Leonardo da Vinci would be inventing better styluses and iPads once it occurred to him that he could engineer something like that for money.

It doesn't matter to an experienced artist what medium they use. You can make chewed gum look like an oil painting if you had your heart set on that kind of thing. That said, I personally won't buy the Apple pencil. Not really my thing. I use a 10+ year old Intuos tablet when I go digital.

yea and lets be honest here, digital art is for production.. not for art galleries...

were talking the hundreds of thousands of employed concept artists/animators in the games & film industry here.

This is just a random youtube example but when you are trying to turn out 2-3 of these a day what you think they make throwaway concept art with Oils swish hehe

well think of it this way, if someone wrote a contents for you with page #'s.. or refered you to a page #.. it would be just as easy to send you a link to the page location.. like, its been solved b4 my pals long long ago when the internet was in its infancy.

page "24" linked to you bros.

Edit* on printing: in a digital world printing is leas and less valuble and I concede if thats what you do at work, then its fine with me if you add a 'add page breaks option' in my utopian verson of google docs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Your link takes me to the top of a page, which I assume to be page 24. I am not following how this supports your argument against pages, but I can see how you could accomplish the same thing with links to words/locations in documents. Good point.

What is it that bothers you about the page breaks? Are you making art by coloring spreadsheet cells or sticking images in word documents?

I write a lot of documentation, and when you do that you dont need 'pages'. I mean imagine if every webpage you went to was 8.5x11... our minds, the internet, everything is trending towards whateverXwhatever you want it to be. So I think our legal documentation should as well.

honestly if that link doesn't work for you, its user error.. You must run some wierd addblock or something.. either way linking page locations isnt difficult. Especially if you are google designing your own fricking online based documentation system.

Hmmm so was it supposed to take me to a certain spot on the page? I am just using Safari on an iPhone.

Just replaced my Iphone after 3 years, I put it through hell too (having it in my pocket through multiple structure fires). Their products last, and just because they put out a new phone every year, doesn't mean you have to run out and buy it.

I admit, I have an iphone6 (work provided, I wouldnt have bought it), an ipad mini2 (i bought it used on ebay - mainly for another side job use), and a macbook pro (work provided).

I do like some of their products, but I would never personally pay the prices they are getting for their new tablets and laptops.

What amazes me though, is how people eat this shit up, every single year, yet the product doesnt change much, but apple sells is as new and innovative (when other companies have been doing the exact same thing for months or even years before they release it).

People are constantly dropping 1k on a new tablet, $750 on a new phone, year after year. I suspect the average consumer just plops out the plastic and upgrades every year, and are still working to pay off their iphone 2g.

I'm in the wrong line of work, I need to open a business that sells overpriced products to suckers.

Their apps run better than anything on android OS. The gap is closing because of hardware but their shit is still good quality(ipads, iphones)....Their computers I don't care for especially price.

yea. Anyway if you were google you could engeer it so it was work fine and everyone would be happy.

There are plenty of jobs that need 'pages' I know. But I work in the tech sector and we're from the future where we dont [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
