I couldn't agree more. I wish the lines between bitmap and vector (and 3D) would just blur already:
- Draw in vectors - render to bitmaps (shadows, textures, etc.)
- Natural painting tools - watercolour, charcoal, oil, markers -- all
vectors, all node-editable, all scaleable, all groupable and joinable. All the time! 3. 1 and 2 on any face of a 3D object!
Go code now. You have your orders! :D
You forgot this: 4. It has to be fast :-)
Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that vectors should never mix with bitmaps. I'm saying that, considering the current state of the tools, maybe it's not the best idea to replace a good bitmap manipulation program with a vector illustration program. In the future this distinction may be more subjective.
