true, in the same way that detailing is part of the design process, but this adds a late tedious step, instead of reducing the number of steps and iterations where you need to change the design - Faith Eagle 2023.04.14
example should not use the term itself, but try to describe the term through the example. - Radiance Panther 2023.04.12
Isn't post processing a part of the design process? - Bliss Tiger 2023.04.12
