Art is much less important than life, but what a poor life without it. Options

Do you use any less "traditional" graphics programs? Which? How did you get into the more obscure program? What I mean by less traditional graphics program is, anything other than the same old photoshop, paint shop pro, GIMP, paint, etc. Programs that I feel fall into this category (at least cB-wise) would be Terragen, Terraspace, Bryce, Cinema4d, 3d Studio Max, Open Canvas, Painter Classic, perhaps flash..

Oh, and Joe is a fantastic artist who combines these and photoshop. /shameless plug;

I'm looking to get into flash in the near future; I've tried Terragen before and will probably use it again some time. Also, I've used AutoCAD as well as Rhinoceros3D in a drafting course.

Yup i love fireworks too, totally rock over illustrator xD.

I also tried getting into flash, but it was too hard for me. Actually it has a lot of coding in it too. I think it's a miracle how some people can pick up flash.

I've also used dreamweaver, but it's not something that i think is less traditional. A lot of coders I know use it, because it's easier over front page. I've tried both and microsoft front page doesn't seem as strong as dreamweaver.
