I've had a jimmed version of CS2 for years and it's always served me well for everything I've wanted to do, but I've downloaded Premier 'cos I've never had a play with that.
I currently seem to have a jimmed CS5 version but I'd definitely get hold of CS2 since it's legal and definitely would do everything I want from CS2.
Its not legal, though, that's my point.
The CS2 copy isn't legal? I'm confused.
It was a mistake on Adobe's part. It seemed that they were giving away CS2 for free (which would have been an uncharacteristically smart business move on Adobe's part). But this turned out not to be the case and what they're actually doing is turning off the authentication servers for CS2 and below and making CS2 available for download to those who have a CS2 serial or whatever. Something like that.
Ahh, makes more sense. I thought it was them being smart to generate interest and potential future sales, nevermind.
Aye, I was pleasantly surprised when I heard about it. Surprisingly smart move, like. But yeah, stupid Adobe.
Gimp's not too bad these days :((
I use Photoshop 6 even though I have CS4.
I use PS7 even though I have CS5.5.
Opens faster, does the same shit.
I think I managed to actually resize an image in Gimp the other day. It was a proud day.
I eventually got round to telling it not to spread over my 2 screens when it started which made it much easier to use. One toolbar on the left of one screen and another on the right of the other screen isn't useful in the slightest, especially when one screen is 1024x768 and the other 1920x1080.
