Photoshop 8.0

[psYcl-loSe]

I've got the new Photoshop guys and It's AWSOME!

[Schmoove]

Looks like some nice eye candy, in this newest edition of photoshop?:whistle::

I like it, will probably "get it".?:blink:k:

Where exactly do you see the eye-candy????:blink:k:

It looks exactly the same as Photoshop 7 apart from the icon and the splashscreen:unsure:e:

I meant eye candy as in your pic, in the Photoshop window LOL:rofl:l:

:D:D

I'll probably get it anyways.

lol, I see:D:D

Would anyone here recommend purchasing Photoshop CS for a casual home user? I would like to learn Photoshop more but am not sure if this (rather expensive!!!) software is worth the purchase or if I should perhaps look into Photoshop 7 or even Photoshop Elements 2. :unsure:

Personally there is not much of a big difference from 7 to 8. If you are just starting and you want to use what most people are going to upgrade to You could get it and be ok. OR you could find a cheap version of ps7 and just go with that. If you already have 7 then 8 is not much of an upgrade.

Actually most of the improvements in Photoshop CS are below the surface. You can go look at a number of different sites to read the changes. One thing that really intruiged me was support for "Non square pixels". Also Text on path is pretty cool. I think another thing that's new is the ability to set up custom keyboard shortcuts.

Also as far as activiation, many of you may not know that Adobe does allow you to activate on 2 computers as long as they are yours and it's you using them. That's fair in my book, but, I don't use pirated software either. Activation does have it's ups and downs either way. I think the reason a lot of people don't like activation is the "feeling" of being at the mercy of the software company and it's still a little new and we all usually have a fear of things we don't have a lot of experience with and not sure of the overall outcome in the short AND long haul. Just my 2 cents.

Hold down the control button while selecting "About Photoshop..." to see the alternative codename DarkMatter about screen! ;)

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.

Thats probably why FatCat ;)

My company will get me a copy soon, I?m not sure if it will be any more useful than v7. A better filter preview eh? about bloody time! I've been recommending that to Adobe for well over 10 years now!

Yea, come on, look at all the Longhorn threads. Who actually has a legit version.

[DiEMOS]

If you guys really knew how to use your skills on the Internet, you could search Microsoft's database on how to change a cd key and activate the OS and just find a new key on your own. Key gens can do that for you.

It's easy to do on your own...I don't know why MS left the article in their database on how to do it. Fools.

really?

[Mark Otto]

By the way, what was the major upgrade in 8.0? Me forgets.

[DiEMOS]

yea, no UNDO NO COLOR BALANCE (CTRL B)..... this is almost unsable without teh shortcuts, lol

[humcheepeng]

By the way, does the activation thing in PS 8 require a background service to be run? And does it place a cdilla folder in C:\ ? Because I hate that.

[DiEMOS]

figure out urself.

edit: and if u dont have it, maybe ur not suppost to have it :devil:

[The Jorge]

/me wants. ;)

[rpeterclark]

This has been answered like 3 times in this thread already. The crack breaks any CTRL keyboard shortcuts. If you test PS before applying the crack, it works fine.
