Photoshop

I saw awesome DIY projects done with Photoshop, so i was just checking out to see how much it costs.. and i went to bestbuy.com and its $650!! Thats crazy!! Do you know if you have to use the cd every time you run the program. I'm thinking of searching ebay but i'm nervous i'll get scammed

no once you upload the program on your comp its on there.

If you know any computer ppl, IT people, they can just e-mail you the program and then give you the code for it lol. Free is better than $650 hahahaha

Just an FYI - Photoshop is really difficult to use and is not really for the novice. It takes graphic designers months to learn the program and most will still tell you that they don't know all of the features. I would suggest looking into Paint Shop Pro. It will probably be all you need for you DIY projects.

Re: Photoshop

I do agree, you should look into paint shop pro though...They use to do free trials for 30 or 60 days online, dont know if they still do

Re: Photoshop

i work in photoshop daily and go to school for graphic design and i still don't use everything on the damn thing. If your a student at a college full time you can access programs at reduced and i mean CHEAP rates. campustech is one website.

I got the entire adobe suite plus dreamweaver for $400

Usally when you buy a program it comes with a certian amount of licenses. This way you can download iton other computers. I can see if my sis bf has it. He has alot of computer programs and all of the linceses. He just got Vista!!! He was so excited about it....lol
