I have it too, the Paradox release.... though I can honestly say I HATE it!!

It is better then 7.01 in almost any area, it loads just as fast and has more features.

But for some STUPID reason (could be the crappy crack) it doesn't respond on keyboard shortcuts. If I use CTRL+Z or CTRL+X or whatever keyboard shortcut it just doesn't respond.... it does nothing.

Also the shortcut remapper function doesn't work at all.....

I uninstalled it and reinstalled version 7.01, because this way I can't work with it.

I think photoshop 8 will not be as good of an upgrade as 5 was to 6, the worst upgrade was 6 to 7. its nothing. the one that is gaining most ground is paint shop pro and photoimpact. I got microsoft Photo suite as a gift and it rocks if you add plugins, you can even add plugins which u use in photoshop ussually

Look eh.. if you didn't follow Paradox instruction and just run Photoshop CS, all the keyboards shortcuts would work.. and once you apply the patch, the keyboard shortcuts would fail (all the keys start with Ctrl)

So yeah their crack is messed up.

Once again, you got the warez, so you deserve all the impairity..lol

So is it really worth buying despite the name? :whistle:

Been exploring it and I have to say no.... it is not worth to spend any money to upgrade I think.

Frankly the step from 6 to 7 wasn't really worth it either.

Let's face it, Photoshop is definitly the best in its class, it is unmatched at the moment and therefore it is hard and maybe too hard to make it even better. Not saying PS8 is bad, absolutely not, it is definitly better then 7, but I don't think it justifies the 169 dollar price tag for upgrading. At least not for most people.

True professionals that work day in day out with PS might see the new version as a usefull upgrade, but the regular (home) user doesn't really need it.

Lucky me, I can buy it for $40 (well probably in 2 or 3 months from now) on a student license easily at school so I will surely upgrade.

Oh I fully agree. Just saying that without working shortcuts it is kinda useless for me.

It is probably the crack like you say. The full and legal version will rock, like all versions of Photoshop did.

I will definitly buy it when I'm able to get it with a student license.

In the meantime I'll just use version 7 or when I can get my hands on a working warez copy I will use that.

For me it's loading fast. But no it's not worth the upgrade. I did buy ps7 cause I liked it alot. But this the only real diff I'm noticing is a few new ways of viewing things (not a big deal) and the new load screens) Other then that it's not worth the money they want for it. Oh and yeah I hate the activation.

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30

      By Copernic · Posted

      FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
