So I know a lot of people wonder which program is the better program and which one is more easier to use. Honestly because I’ve been working with Photoshop for so many years, its like a second nature to me. Photoshop may be complex but once you start to get the hang of things its so simple to use. A lot of people dislike the fact Photoshop has layers which becomes a little too complicated for people to understand. Meanwhile Illustrator has layers yes but you can put multiple things on one layer and be able to move it around without creating a new layer. What Photoshop does is it locks layers in place unless you move it but its not like that with Illustrator. Illustrator is a little bit more artsy, where you can draw and be free kind of. You can create shapes and do all sorts of things your self where as Photoshop you’re kind of limited.
But don’t worry all Graphic Designers have their favorite Adobe program but these two are the most used for Graphic Designers. If you are worried about both being too complex there are multiple videos on YouTube and numerous blogs that will teach you very basic skills on how to use both programs. Personally I feel like Illustrator is a little bit hard to learn at first because of how flexible it is. But if you practice little things everyday I’m sure you’ll get it (:
