To those of the people who have used both illustrator and adobe photoshop... what's the differences between the pen tool in photoshop and illustrator? Because i am beginning to experiment with vectoring and i downloaded the tryout version of illustrator and it's pretty good. But it's going to expire soon so i might consider asking my friend for her photoshop.. cuz i know that there'a pen tool there too, so my question is, what's different?

b/c the pen tool in photoshop sucks, and people use illustrator b/c thats one of the programs to to make a "real vector", if you make a 'vector' in photoshop its now called a vexel.

so, when you say that the pen tool in photoshop sucks, do you mean that it's different from the one in illustrator or it just can't do the curves or something?

I think it's because you can use a lot more illustrating options on Illustrator. And Illustrator is for making vectors and Photoshop is for making vexels. You can also make drawings on Illustrator but I don't really know how.. I had Illustrator for awhile, but I didn't like it so I deleted it mellow.gif. I think I was just ignoring all its good uses though..
