#Iconbuilder plugin full

Uses This is supported by ZSA, makers of the Moonlander, ErgoDox EZ and Planck EZ keyboards. Otherwise my ultimate setup would have hardware and software that can read my mind and throw down the drawings I have in my head without me lifting a finger.

#Iconbuilder plugin full

I'd like to think that an 8-core Mac Pro could handle just about anything you throw at it if the software is taking full advantage of the processors. I don't know exactly how much of that is software and how much is hardware, but I suspect the majority is software based. It still seems like I'm waiting around a lot for drawings to render out or tasks and filters to do their job. I don't have too many unfulfilled needs right now, an extra 30' would of course be fantastic, but mainly I just want my software to be intuitive and responsive. Other than that, I let SuperDuper! and Time Machine take care of my backups. Apple Mail handles my email and iTunes is nearly always playing music in the background. Adium or iChat keep in touch with most people and others I follow/stalk on Twitter with Twitterrific. I track my time with On the Job and I've been using Things to manage tasks. Client and office documents are generally opened in iWork. All the icons I create with the Iconbuilder plugin and then organized using Candybar. Most of my software time is spent in Adobe Illustrator with Photoshop running a close second. My recent pens of choice have been the Foray. Before I use any computer hardware I work most of it out on pen and paper in my sketchbook. To make sure its not the IconBuilder plugin that was giving me the issue I opened my old icons. For drawing and other illustration I use a 21' Cintiq monitor. The normal states are visible, just not the open/drop states. For design and icon illustration I use a 6'x8' Wacom Intuos tablet and two monitors: a 20' and a 30'. I'm on a Mac Pro dual core at home and 8-core at work, both with 4GB of RAM.

What hardware do you use?īig screens and dark rooms seem to work out best. I do fun drawings for myself, professional drawings at the Iconfactory and random drawings for strangers.
