Is there a reason you're cutting artists who don't use 3DS Max or Maya? Also, is there a reason they have to know Photoshop, or can another similar package do? For the record, I'm not interested- just curious.

If an artist can prove that they can do just as good a job in other art packages without causing undue problems with our art pipeline I would also consider them. I was simply asking for the standard three industry packages that most professional artists would use.

A good thing to clarify, since a lot of 'professional' artists don't use Maya or 3ds.
