it depends on how well they use the tools they have to work with. You might say that by using a computer at all they are cheating since there's very little skill involved in adjusting things such as color and size, but anyone that has used a graphics program for more than five minutes will counter that argument :]

The true artist that takes whatever they have at hand to create with and makes a meaningful work out of it. brushes and props and graphic manipulation programs and your hands and fingers are just tools to create a vision you have in your head, it's all in how you use them.
