They all say PS is expensive, but it's not THAT bad really. The CS2 upgrade cost me 150$. Considering how good and powerful it is (for someone really into photography) and how often I use it, I'd say it was well worth it.

Not sure what PS CS3 will bring though. Might skip it too (and upgrade to CS4 in a couple years for another 150$), it depends what's new... PS CS2 is already an excellent good tool.

im so getting it, thx again

hmm i wonder what the new features will be in this one

I downloaded it but I have problem running it. Ran the dependency walker and found few dependent files missing, it works well in msvpc.

The installer is much better now, giving you option to skip many things. Though Photoshop and Imageready are customary.

well its been instaled a couple of days but ive had limited time to play with it. as far as i can see its the same as cs2 with the toolbars looking a little different. but im sure theres much more features that i need to uncover.

It'll probably be one of those things you wont notice any difference with until you're trying to do something 4 months in the future then BAM! there's that new feature.

I suppose $150 isn't too bad, I'll just go without eating for a bit.... Mmmm CS3....
