Photoshop

[TVDinner]

I am sure most are using it. I use CS2 currently and love Photoshop for all of my graphic designs and needs (including photoshopping my kid into just about everything). Does anyone else use it?

I had CS3 Extended on my PC. I don't currently have a real version of Photoshop on my new MacBook, though I do have an occasionally use the trial. I can't do anything crazy with it, but I do know the basics and it is a fun program to work with.

I use it and love it specially with Image Ready. It's the new love of my life. I also use PSP (Paint Shop Pro).

Yeah, I love it! I use it for fun too. Though I have also found Adobe Fireworks to be very beneficial for my sites. It does stuff that Photoshop can't do. Alot of Adobe products overlap in terms of capability.

I use Adobe CS2, though I like working with Illustrator more. I had how you have to select a layer before you can work on it. In Illustrator you can just select the object. So annoying!

[Patrick]

I've never used Illustrator, so I don't notice the difference.

I've noticed alot of Adobe products overlap in terms of capability. What's the difference between PS, Illustrator, and Fireworks?

Fireworks is useful in web design, it helped alot to do transparency stuff on NAFans.

Fireworks is basically the same as photoshop. Photoshop actually has more functionality. Fireworks was a product of Macromedia before Adobe bought them out - if I'm not mistaken, Fireworks will eventually be dissolved or combined into Photoshop. Photoshop deals with photos, whereas Illustrator deals with vector images.

i have CS2 in my desktop but i'm learning how to use all the CS3 product of Adobe right now...like Daniel said Illustrator is so annoying...i was always looking around to find the layer box like in Photoshop haha . But yea...photoshop is pretty helpful...it's the only designing program that i need so far

Using CS3 and i like the improvements of CS2 to CS3. Better feeling for me.
Only bad thing is, that image ready is missing... well it is some sort of integrated now but it's a bit tricky to handle.

For web developement, a necessary tool. ps cs3 > *

Photoshop is a good graphics editing programme. It's most user friendly and wide range support and Good tools etc. More using the photoshop and then more improve the skills.

I don't have photoshop, but I might get it soon. I will be getting the newer version, CS3.
