Andrulian<p>Very impressed by the Serif Affinity suite. Recently updated to v2, Designer 2 is brilliant vector graphics software, Publisher 2 is exactly what I've been looking for for ages.</p><p>Best of all Serif have extremely reasonable pricing and licensing options - massive kudos to them for not going down the subscription route.</p><p>Definitely worth checking out, especially as they're currently 40% off</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AffinityDesigner2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AffinityDesigner2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AffinityPublisher2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AffinityPublisher2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/digitalart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>digitalart</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Serif" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Serif</span></a></p><p><a href="https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">affinity.serif.com/en-gb/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
TansterInJakarta (she/her)<p>Playing around with <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/AffinityPhoto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AffinityPhoto</span></a> .
