I have very little experience with Photoshop but I'm decent with SAI.

Thanks! C:
I am planning on a double major and I have been working on my portfolio so along with one of our alumni we worked on completely re-branding the team. (In a aesthetic sense) With a new logo , font , color scheme , and buttons. One thing you wanna make sure you do with button design is to keep it simple. Have a basic 3 or 4 color scheme with a good amount of contrast. 300 dpi will be you best friend. And make sure that if you have text on it , that it is readable. And Photoshop would be a very good program.
