    Great article. Sketches are good, but with some programs like you can make do your sketches and then modify tem depending on how computer savvy you are

      Sketching out a project is like a story outline. Helps you stay on track but not confining because it's the idea stage. I like to have some idea of what I'm going to do before I put some flesh on the body.

        As a designer with over 20 years experience, I still think sketching is critical in getting the thinking process all warmed-up. I love computers and have been working with them since the late 80's, but nothing makes you approach a problem from all angles like a pad and pencil.

          I make a sketch, but don't always follow it to the letter; it is only a guide and I always find ways to improve the final design.
