I want to pose the question to all you outthere in cyberland "Are graphics produced in Photoshop and other programs art?"

I know that many in the quote unquote art world would say no. These are the same people who would say that a piece of rusted metal stuck onto a platform is art, with their art is everywhere kick.

Is producing graphics on a computer the equivent of tracing? Does the use of a computer really make it easier to product a quailty image?

Share your thoughts on this I have plenty more myself but I want to know what you think.
