Honest to gods, this conversation happened today, and it may have cost me a job opportunity. The customer was super impressed with my menu design and animation, and wanted to know who we got it from. When I said I did it, their face lit up! Too bad as soon as i said GIMP, they weren’t interested anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? What do you say in similar situations?
I’d just follow up in the same sentence with “it’s an Adobe alternative”. People tend to fix on the last thing in a sentence so they’ll just ask why you don’t use that instead.
I just say Imp now, if they ask I say it stands for image manipulation tool
That’d be IMT.
