Methinks you're taking this too personally.  No one said that what ~you~ do
is or isn't art, and so what if they did.  It's just one person's opinion,
one person's perception, one person's feeling about how something (in this
case the digital workflow and process) effects him.  If you drove a Ford
and someone said Fords suck, and they hate 'em, and wouldn't be caught
driving one, and much preferred a Chevy, would you be insulted because
someone didn't like your choice of cars.  After all is said and done, Kevin
will do what's best and most comfortable for him, you'll continue doing
what works for and is comfortable for you, and we'll all go on doing what
we've been doing.  No one attacked or insulted ~you~ from what I've read in
this thread. 

Now, if you want to feel insulted, how's this:  your wife is ugly and you
have no taste, your photos and images are crap, you're too short for your
height, and your breath stinks.  That's something about which to get
insulted.  

It's not about you, or any person in this thread.  It's about how Kevin
feels about a certain process.  It is no more wrong for Kevin to feel the
way he does than it is for you to ~feel~ the way you do, regardless of
whether those feelings (yours or Kevin's) are rational, logical, fit within
the mainstream of this list, or are from outer space.
