My university friend swears by corel but I am Adobe all the way and pretty much the same as user-arlok,I use Indesign and Dreamweaver for coding. But I just started getting into free fonts online instead of designing them from scratch as way too time consuming (although it is fun!)...(fontsaddict has the biggest database so you can pretty much find anything you want with little editing needed).There is free vectors online also.Anyway,that might be helpful to you all.
