Photoshop vs. Illustrator

The main difference between Photoshop and Illustrator is that Illustrator is based on vectors, not pixels. This means that the resolution is higher than Photoshop, and if you make an object bigger it will not grow blurry like it does in Photoshop. Photoshop is specifically for editing photos, but you can create objects to go around it. Illustrator allows you to draw vector images of high quality. Illustrator also has some different filters than Photoshop.
