What our customer's say!

"Mis-titled and Crap", I recieved a Photoshop CS3 not Photoshop CS3 Extended.
it was also a pirated version so i recieved no code to use it.

"Upgrade only if you MUST have the new features", I've been using this version of Photoshop for about 9 months now, ever since my school decided to upgrade from CS2 to CS3 and I'm not exactly sure what the big difference is between the CS2 and CS3 versions are. Ok first "big difference" are the new Palettes, which for some can get annoying, which was the case for me, but I had to get used to them so I just dealt with it until I got the hang of it. Two, smart filters are another new feature of CS3 which turns layers into smart objects that you can add non-destructive filters to, something I kind of got the feeling that Adobe added this feature for stupid amateurs who like to add these dumb filters on their Myspace photos, but no real professional would really get excited about. Third is the added flexibility with video. Photoshop now has features to edit video frames with Photoshop tools, but really it isn't such a big deal; I mean you can use After Effects to do the stuff that CS3 extended can do, but I don't know, some people like it because it's a bit easier because they're more familiar with Photoshop.

The best new feature I can say is the quick selection tool which selects portions of your photo with pretty good accuracy, but it's not really worth the $300-$1000 price tag depending on which version of Photoshop and whether or not it's an upgrade. After everything, there's really no big difference between CS3 and CS2 so don't feel bad if you think you're missing out on anything, you're really not missing much. I would have given this 5 stars but there really isn't anything that special about CS3 when compared to CS2.

"Another great piece of software from adobe !", Ok first off many out there dont know about Adobe Photoshop CS 3 Extended . The first few things most anyone will notice with the difference is that verry big price tag ! The normal photoshop cs 3 is still not cheap ! The standard version basicly like photoshop cs 2 works great with image related editing . The extended adds in a little bit more for the user to do . Here is a few things that covers on whats all new.

Easily create animations from a series of still images or video frames with a new Animation palette that enables onion skinning.

Enhance video directly within Photoshop Extended. Now you can paint, add text, and clone over multiple frames of an imported video sequence.

Create, modify, and collaborate on 3D content more easily through tight integration between Photoshop CS3 Extended and Acrobat® 3D software. Convert myriad 3D CAD formats to the robust U3D interchange format, enhance models and create composites with Photoshop Extended, and easily embed 3D models created in Photoshop Extended into PDF files to distribute for review.

I could go a bit more into detail but the point is that Photoshop CS3 Extended adds in alot more editing power as well animations . The reason i went for this version was i intend to use for some web based movies i will be putting out . Also for editing my pictures done with a digital camera .

So if your looking for a great package of software to handle alot more then just photos then this is it . It does run verry well with windows vista . For the best results you will need a good high end system . Like i was told by a adobe rep that is " If your system can run vista you can run our product ! " . I would still say depending what you intend to do with the program will all depend on the system your using it on . Also you need 1gb of hard drive space . If your going to be using the software for alot of things . I would say besure to have a good size hard drive to cover for the Operating System as well the program .

Also Photoshop CS3 Extened does need a activation done ! The only difference is this time around you can only have 1 program activated . If you intend to use on more then one computer you will have to deactivate the current one before doing it on the other system . If that is not your cup of tea , you can always go out and buy another . So i would say for the best part before buying the program make sure what computer you want it on .
