When I was at design school... we had to train and learn certain skills which allowed us to understand what we were training for... A life of Graphic Design... A vocation that we loved and cared about.
Now it seems that certain skill sets are being eroded. I won't list them all... but I happened across this the over day... (yes I know there are loads more colour apps out there)... But this one is a commercialisation of colour.
A quick and lazy way of creating colour palettes without thought... The application of which could be abused if the young talent are not so questioning of the pixels that are placed before their eyes.
Is this a good thing. I know it speeds up process and offers us a usable and exact tool. I just hope that formal education on specialised skills are not lost in a world of instant answers.
