my college has some sort of plan with Adobe that they can sell full versions of CS3 for ridiculously low prices. my question is, do you think its worth it, and which one should i get?

there was a thread a while back on how to get CS3 for free... it reqires downloading the trial version then getting some keygen... i dont remember how to do it but it worked perfectly for me...

definitly don't waste any money at all on it when you can get it for free.

pm  TerminatorX he knows about it.

it depends how much cheaper it is, because it is kinda a pain in the ass the try and bootleg it and plus if you like their software then why not support them

yeah your right, it does get annoying copying / pasting the damn product key every single time i open CS3.

i guess it depends on how good of a deal you are getting...

i think that if you didn't keygen it before a year (or some amount of time) after cs3 was released, then the unlegit keys expired, so you would have to crack it differently, which requires you to enter a key every time you open up the ap.

if u can get a discount on it i suggest u buy it. i bought the editing program alone for 300 bills. if u can get it for less than that, its a pretty sweet deal

I have CS2 on my desktop, and CS3 on my laptop. I know how to use the programs pretty good, though i'm no expert.

Here are the main things i noticed, although there are ALOT more for the more dedicated users:


The interface on CS3 is alot easier to use and actually "simpler" looking. It also seems to run alot smoother and faster(maybe its the computer though?).

The brightness and contrast controls are changed a bit and make photos look alot better, where sometimes they could kinda mess up the image.


The print menu is alot better, and easier to use with more controls right on the print preview page.

and it only took you 5 times to get it right... but if you want to buy, then i would go with the production premium unless you are into web design.

Finding a keygen for cs3 is kinda hard. There are so many fakes ones filled with trojans out there.
