– Learn UI/UX from Scratch with my new service (coming soon)
— Today, I ask the age old question, “Can you still use Photoshop for UI design in 2020?” Well, of course, everyone says no. But I take an in-depth look at this question and consider is there EVER a use-case where it makes sense. WATCH to find out!

I mean, what do you think? PS or NEVARRRR!!?
HI how do you link the buttons ton top like "Home" "Products" "About Us" to a page? Is it some sort of coding required im assuming
thank you baby~
Hell yeah!! Hardcore stuff
For websites I still use Photoshop, but for mobile app design… I jump to Sketch 🙂
adobe is corrupt
Okay but what is the correct sizing etc I start off with? I designed myspace layouts all the time in my day and on an old ass computer when I was young, now I am in my 30's and want to do real websites..
Photoshop – All in one design expertise
can you publish a tutorial on how to make the design you created here? @designcourse
video starts in 2:15
Yes, I am still using photoshop for web design
The basic issues for me and many others, I suspect, is not the design capabilities of any of these products, but the lack of publishing. XD has a plugin that kind of works but is hardly professional. Anything else requires the designs to be imported to something like Dreamweaver for coding. This, to me , is a backward step considering how something like Adobe Muse was more than capable of doing all in one. So Adobe discontinue that product to make publishing more difficult. Added cost is why they do this. Greed.
Adobe XD and Sketch are the most efficient tool I used for Web and App design, but I still use Photoshop to create the images. Both tools are great for web design.
I think Abobe XD is a very good tool, but it lacks the features photoshop has. I agree that if you keep it simple than Photoshop is not needed, but when you like to add brushes, patterns, effects.. you still need photoshop
If you make a design for Jewish site on Hebrew it's impossible to use figma or XD… Because of right to left direction. And there is no normal plugin for solving this problem
what a web design, i freakin' luv it.

Totally agree to use ps ….. and BGM is carzy😅.
Exactly what I was hoping to hear. Btw: the timelapsed design Gary created here is just amazing, wow.
I tend to agree that it doesn't really matter the tools used. I've found that it usually depends on how you work with developers and clients. For most clients PSDs are acceptable forms of assets, while other workflows from other clients may work with XD/Sketch etc. It entirely depends on the full workflow stream from concept to execution. And of course old habits die hard! Love your vids and keep up the great work!
Simple your video is not !
But how can we use those as buttons on website as this is just an image??
Informative this.
100% agreed
I use it still (been on PS since version 1.07. I import my layouts into Xd. Plus I already pay for the PS suite and don't want to pay for another darn app!
Thank you so much sir
So if we can use photoshop for UI then How should we deal with the screen that requires scrolling. Is there anyway to do it in Photoshop because i am not familiar with XD.
Yes!!!
Sure, I mean, I could technically use a screwdriver to open a can of soup too.
I still use it. It's faster for me to prototype more than anything else. As a matter of fact, it's the only thing I use. I can build out all my elements in CSS later. I think the stigma from the early 90s of people building stuff in Photoshop and slicing it into images for tables is why people look down at it. Honestly, there's no valid reason why you wouldn't want to use it.
since I started to learn from photoshop, I'll be loyal with it.
Love that background song.
I fully agree with you. That is what I say to everybody, it's all tools so doesn't matter to me what kind of tool you use to achive a result, since you achive it. If someone use Paint to make a Desing and it's good, I'm ok with it and I won't obligate this person to use MY favorite tool.
It's all about the result and not the tools used in the process.
