reticulating your mom
|
I've done lots of Photoshop work at school, and desparately want Photoshop at home. I'm not going to stoop so low as to grab it off Limewire, but I cringe at the $649 price tag of CS. Where can I get Photoshop (for Mac) cheaper than retail, but still own it legally? I would have no problems with dropping down to version 6 or 7 (maybe even 5).

Check Adobe's educational pricing, it may help you out.

There's also Photoshop Elements, if it does everything you need it to do. I only have version 1 right now, but I plan on upgrading sometime soon. It actually runs decently in Classic.

Yeah, Photoshop Elements is really good for the price and is only missing a few features. A friend of mine purchased it a year ago and I was surprised at how much it really had to offer.
Here's a comparison of Elements to the full version: Is Photoshop CS worth the extra $500 compared to Photoshop Elements? I'd bet that Elements will do just about everything you need. You should also check with your campus bookstore. Most universities offer software at a substantial discount, as the page ast3r3x posted will tell you. $69 is a darn good price. If your school does not offer Adobe's software, check out academicsuperstore.com. The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts.

I have Photoshop 7 and as an artist,use it for graphics work. I also have Elements and it is surprising how Great it is! IMHO, if you want to prepare Quality images to be Printed in a professional manner, then you need Photoshop.
As for pricing, if you buy a somewhat high end scanner or camera, and if Elements is included, there usually is an Upgrade Coupon for Photoshop....much cheaper than Photoshop at retail. |
