Reviewed on 2008-04-29 Got the upgrade instead of full and it was used instead of new When I received my product it had obviously been opened and wasn't even the right product. I ordered, and paid for, a full version and got the upgrade version. Buyer beware!

Reviewed on 2008-04-25 Builds web sites at a huge price, but what about photos? This new version of Photoshop can help build some amazing web sites! Adobe has taken the time to add some new features that make it easy to slice up your image and export the chunks. Photoshop will let you load photographs and use them as beautiful backgrounds on your web sites. Photoshop's layering system lets you add text and other elements. Adobe has upgraded quite a few of the program's features so you might be wondering why this is a 1 star review. If you are new to using computers to manipulate images, you might expect the industry standard Photoshop to be the best possible investment. It's practically a cultural phenomenon, taught in schools with countless books being written about it each year. My problem with the powerful Photoshop remains the very difficult and non-intuitive user interface. Version after version the folks at Adobe add features that most often are very helpful: text handling, browsing, filter previewing, and web-site creation just to name a few. While these offerings can help many computer users for various reasons I find it sad what is offered to the customer who wants to manipulate, manage, and print photographs. Photoshop is difficult to use, and remains sorely lacking in this area. Some very powerful features are absolutely hidden unless the end-user takes classes and buys extra books. Maybe "Photoshop" is simply the wrong word for it. The toolbar has a stale old feel that would be well served to be completely redesigned. Some tools are still hidden below other tools and are found after the end user holds down the left mouse button, or uses a hotkey. Powerful and completely elementary features, such as "crop", are still tucked away in the oddest places. A critical feature keeps its old but odd name "Stroke". In some areas Adobe has made features redundant, so new users can adapt to new ways, and old user can stick to their old methods. I can appreciate this, but I would prefer they just do it right, once. Stroke is still in the Edit menu. Crop is still in the Image menu. The fill-can still needs to be set to threshold 255 manually to make it simply fill. Wouldn't it be nice to not have to type the numbers 255 in the middle of your workflow? Recently Adobe has had great success with a new product called "Lightroom". The product shows potential and obviously must be catering the crowd of professional photographers who have been less than thrilled with what they get out of Photoshop. Perhaps Adobe just needs some fresh new energy when it comes to making user interfaces. With a dark room style workflow, Lightroom could turn into what Photoshop should have been. I feel there are a number of alternatives that should be looked at before buying Photoshop, studying Photoshop, or even caring about Photoshop. One new exciting tool for photographers is Nikon's Capture NX. Even non-Nikon users can now take advantage of this interesting and powerful photograph manipulation tool. At its price point photograph-software consumers should re-evaluate what they are buying and how much they are spending. What consumers need now are effective manipulation, management and printing tools for their newly found digital collections of tens of thousands of photographs. As I approach the 10,000 mark I find the need for software that makes my life easier. All I'm using Photoshop for anymore is web design, and it seems that's what Adobe wants. But let's be frank, is this kloogy program really worth $600+? Maybe, if you build web sites.

Reviewed on 2008-04-24 Adobe Photoshop CS3 I used the free 30 day trial before purchasing, so I knew what I was getting ahead of time. I also have a friend who is an art director for a publishing company and he showed me what could be done. The only thing I would suggest is that the tutorials have some hands on parts in them like the quickbook tutorials. Other than that the turtorials are great, and the usability is realy outstanding. There is so much there that it takes a while to learn it, but if it didn't have all those features I wouldn't want it.

Reviewed on 2008-04-22 Photoshop CS3 The product is great, but the official Adobe customer service is lacking. It is based in India. I like the new fiber filter and brushes.
