Kerner wants "One Brush to Rule Them All" and you should, too!

Matt Kerner popped up on my IM client with a long, expletive-laden rant (and he's actively religious, so I started paying attention immediately) about brushes in Fireworks CS3. It seems that he has a workflow issue with Fireworks that involves him moving from Photoshop and back to Fireworks all because he needed to use a specific brush that isn't available to him in Fireworks.

Wow. Who knew that is so simple as a *.abr file could effect someone's sanity. So much so, Kerner made a logo. So much so, he made t-shirts available.

If this was Flex or the Flash Player, I'd be suggesting that you go vote on the issue. Since we don't have that available, if you would find it useful for brush files be easily transferred between Photoshop, Illustrator, Fireworks, Flash, In Design, and After Effect, leave a comment here and I will make sure that Adobe hears you.

dave powell (aka gyrus)'s Gravatar The real question is. Does he have any sales of those shirts?

Phillip Kerman's Gravatar Funny... I think he needs to make a video to express his feelings.

dokMixer's Gravatar Oh boy... ONE brush file, cross platform... Where do i have to pay for that ? :p

And yeah, i experience the same problems, of brushes between photoshop and Fireworks... I have to use abr viewer, extract every brush onto a single png file... And believe me, hundreds of pngs badly named can turn you insane.
