5Shot, Mr. Bulman, and I unintentionally hijacked a thread in the Custom Holster forum, so I thought we could continue the conversation here. Sorry guys, I didn't mean to... :oops:

I couldn't sleep last night, so I played around with a couple graphics for Mr. Bulman's company. I hope I didn't step on any toes by doing this...all images were taken from this forum and the content from his website. If I've offended anyone I'll take it down immediately.

I did this in a couple hours last night around midnight or 1am. In the light of day (and a few shots of espresso), it's clear that it needs some (read: a lot) of work, but it was fun nonetheless.

5Shot: To answer your question, I use Adobe Photoshop CS2 for all website layouts, then create the HTML using a combination of ImageReady, GoLive, and Dream Weaver.

Well, it looks awesome - I did my own using Dream Weaver, but I just used templates, since I don't have training in that area.

If you ever need help with 3D Design using Pro-E - I can handle that.

Dreamweaver is a great tool. It's more powerful than GoLive, but I learned on Adobe products so I'm still partial... Ever work in Photoshop?

Thanks Steve. It's acceptable for an hour's worth of work, but nothing anyone should pay for. Print and web work are two entirely different things, and I'm having a tough time transitioning between the two...

I'm already a couple beers deep. http://www.yost-bonitz.com beware! :lol:

I have not played around with Photoshop. I spend too much of my time making holster, shooting, working my day job......

Yeah, the learning curve on Adobe's professional products is pretty steep unless you're making a living off it.
