Methods and Tools


I use free, open source tools whenever possible, although I am well-versed in most of the big industry standards such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash. With the exception of Flash, DanConnor.com was made entirely with free, open source software. At the moment my favorite OS for web development is Ubuntu Linux. As developed by the open source community, I use straight up gEdit for coding, The GIMP for raster graphics, Inkscape for vector graphics, and I code first for Firefox, then KHTML/Safari, then adjusting for other browsers as needed.
