I get your point, and your insinuation (which i will not comment on  
only to say, i'm confident in my abilities), but It's not actually my  
idea.  That statement is from a professor of computer graphics at MIT  
(i think, but i'm too lazy to google it).  It doesn't mean it's  
right, but you have to admit, most studios have developers around to  
create features not present in the application.  If a person works  
alone, one must be a programmer to have the same degree of potential  
(and this is debatable...  artists are creative and fool a lot of  
people with "tricks", but there is a limit to that.  That's all i'm  
saying)
