Dark Mist : So now his perspective is stupid? how nice.

Baker your contradicting yourself there, you complain that no one helped right away but just agreed that someone does actually help at some point

thats a relief Gadget...was expecting a worse reply

because we have 'realistic' views on things unlike yourself, we rate a product on integrity and its use, not its maker or country of make. you have your view and thats fine but just remember we have ours too and not always do they see eye to eye.

i second that Gadget

What a scary world it would be, just have to accept people have different views

Neither of you really *mean* anything. You'd have to 'think' or 'care' to mean anything. You are just yammering on like someone is pulling a string.


You don't know anything about me to even make that comment!
Soooo Please!!! Get a life!!!

Can anyone recommend another program with the same or better capabilities ??
This was the indivuals question. They did not ask for your opinion about his relations with the French.

I think that the *Axialis Icon Workshop* is one of the best programs that there is right now (just a personal opinion)

very well said. totally agree

Oh, calm down, people...

Here's two FACTS for you, just to put 'things' into perspective.

The French secret service instigated an ACT OF WAR on foreign 'soil' by blowing up the Rainbow Warrior and thereby killing a photographer, in a New Zealand port.
Utterly indefensible action which should have resulted in criminal action for capital crime. The act of simply attacking a ship is classified as Piracy which still carries a Death Penalty.
Their agents got bugger-all, a few weeks 'vacation' on a tropical Isle...yeah, right.

Fact two.
LiteSTEP was created by a Frenchman [LoneRunnr], but that doesn't stop me from using it and/or enjoying it.

So what if a Program is French? Funds from its purchase are not going into financing Nuclear armament.
Heaven forbid....exactly WHO has all [most] of the Nuclear capability, forever leaving the world with the REAL realization that 'Man' has the capability to wipe life of any sort totally from the face of this planet several times over?
Won't stop me buying US Proggies, either.




Except for the Cockroaches...

whats wrong with Icon workshop. I think it does Mac icons too right??


Oh and by the way, this was, without a doubt the funniest thread I have ever seen.

I never seen something get so out of hand in 10 posts at the begining of a thread.


Of course all of this could have been ovoided if the tone of the thread at the beginning

quote
Axialis Icon workshop is French.
end quote

then by saying you do not want to support the French because a company is based there seems kinda... well... off. Like calling French Fires; Freedom Fries.

Now if you wanted to ovoid all French products that would seem more wholistic, but pointing out one company that acctually does good work while ignoring others seems... off.


Maybe, for me, it was the way this whole thread was approached.


I found out that Axialis is a French company and I decided not to use it in protest. Does anyone know of a program that is as good with the same features?


WAAAAY less angst.


bakerstreet, you crack me up!!! and make sense at the same time. not sure how you do that.

I think it 'rubbed' people the wrong way because of how he stated it.

As I stated before, in his initial post it really sounded like he was downing the company for being French as oppossed to not wanting to use the program becuase he was boycouting ALL French products.

France is all over this board... look at the title.

France this... French that... and a political statement to boot.

Hard not to make it about France

"Axialis Icon Workshop is French"

anyway... of to skin something...
