Whats everybody doing with Photoshop?

[Shootar401]

Since Adobe are being greedy little babies and making everybody rent their software what will you guys do? Rent the versions as they are released, used the most current version or move to another program?

I have CS4 on my MacPro and CS6 on my MacBook. There is no way in hell I'm paying monthly for a piece of software I use a few times a month. If I was a pro, then yeah, maybe. If not I'll stick with CS6 until I can't run it on my hardware then move to GIMP or another program. In the mean time I'll be looking at "other ways" to get Photoshop CC.

Yea you pirating software is really going to encourage Adobe to change.

If your to cheep to pay $20 a month (that's a cup of coffee a week) your also to cheep to actually buy photoshop.

If there were some way to print a negative without a computer one could tell Adobe where to stick their program....

I upgraded from CS5 to CS6 and will keep using CS6 as long as possible. After that who knows? But unless Adobe does something to make CS6 unusable or impractical I figure I should be good with CS6 for a long time.

just get one version and stick with it. There's no reason to upgrade if you have a 'workflow' (as they say) that works well. I'm on CS1 currently with no plans to upgrade.

LOL lecarp i like your favorite printers..... It is a game ...."if you want to play you have to pay".. in the bigger picture..... life is all about renting and when you die it all gets repossessed .... even your kids will not appreciate or keep your favorite camera ... they want to know how to get the cash from it......Your pictures... if they have no value they will hit the dumpster ... The family pictures may make the cut.... As a company, Adobe is trying to get the most out of their users before they die. My CS4 will be passed on to my kids, because it have some use, value....

I don't use Photoshop but I'm informed that a bloke in China has hacked it already.
Lecarp, that's brilliant!
