How is pushing the buttons art? i mean, the program does all the work, you are just experimenting with some different settings. I mean, i think its a good idea to get the basics down in order to create a masterpiece, but truthfully, once you know how to make something, or know where the controls are, shouldnt you start going away from the trends and truely creating art?

My point is, alot of the people today using photoshop are not making art. They are making the same exact thing over and over with minor adjustments like color. When are the shiney blobs of shit going to stop being made?
