Re: doing graphics when you're not an artist
We need to use more graphics in our manuals. The problem is that theWhat about doing a freehand sketch, then scanning it into the computer? That's usually a much more efficient way than trying to work entirely on the computer.
technical artist already has too much work and there's no budget to get
another. We need line drawings of hardware equipment to show how to assemble
the parts. Myself and my colleague are used to modifying existing graphics
(illustrator and coreldraw) but not drawing from scratch.

If I knew who the enemy was, I'd shoot the bastard - dead."
