I don't know if this is the right forum for this. If it isn't please remove this topic from here.

How much does Photoshop(lates version) cost?
Is it easy or hard to use?
How long does it take to get the hang of it?
What can I do in it?(Besides Microsoft Photo Editor and Paint features)
Is it worth it?
System Requirements?
Is it very Buggy?

If anyone else has any questions besides mine, feel free to post here.

Im not sure how much it costs exactly but you can expect to pay several hundred dollars

Its hard to use at first but its verry easy once you get the hang of it. lucky for you there are a whole censored.gif load of tuorials on how to use PS

Im not sure how long it will take you for to get the hang of it. it has a practly endless ammount of features

You can so :censored:ing anything

As an artist, it is definately worth it to me. Idk what youl use it for but like i said it has nearly infinate uses so im sure you could find something to do with it

Dont know about system reqs' but my comp totaly sucks and it can run it fine so you souldnt have any trouble

Ive had it for a long time and ive never run into any bugs

cost: 700 american dollars, 300 for the upgrade
difficulty: sorry, I can't help you here. I push random buttons until I get the results I want
how long: I think photoshop cs is one of those programs that you could use for years and not know everything about it, that's just my opinion though
What can you do: Lots of stuff, there is a lot of really cool textures you can use, even if their name is missleading. It also has a nice opaque option, and you can split up different pieces of the work onto different layers
I think its worth it
system requirements:
  • Intel Pentium III or 4 processor
  • Microsoft Windows 2000 with SEvice Pack 3 or Windows XP
  • 192MB of RAM (256 MB rocommended)
  • 280MB of available hard-disk space
  • Color monitor with 16-bit color or greater video card
  • 1024x768 or greater monitor resolution
  • CD-ROM drive
  • Internet or phone connection required for product activiation
buggy: I don't know. It works fine for what I do though. I hope this helped

Photoshop is a wonderful program. A year or so back when I was involved with my website I made plenty of graphics with it... It's hard to use at first, but you slowly learn how to use it and it is the best program in its field.

Another program like Photoshop is Paint Shop Pro... It's not as good as Photoshop but it can produce some of the similar results you may want.

Sounds like a great software program.

!@#$ $700 dollars!!!!!
It's a little steep right now.

its brand knew, what did you expect? tongue.gif you might be able to get 7.0 cheaper...there isn't that much of a difference between the two, or at least, not with how I use it...

chill: so what if that's how I make stuff? I like it, and that's all that matters happy.gif

Whoa, I didn't recognize you FireKame with all then new sig, avatar.

Yes I knew it was expensive but noe THAT expensive.
I have almost $200 saved up and I thought I would've needed like $250. Since Win XP is like $300, it seems logical that an art program can't be costlier(I invented this word biggrin.gif) than an OS.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!? WTF!!! I have photoshop 7. My uncle had it and I installed it. Its a pretty good program. havent found any bugs yet and Ive had it for a while. Its pretty easy if you know what you're doing. If you want to know how to make stuff, you should look for tutorials. Thats what I do and thats how I make my sigs and avatars and stuff.

I got my grandpa's computer when he moved into a nursing home, and it had 7.0, then I got the upgrade for my birthday. Granted, I still paid for 200 bucks of it

Memo to self: pay back 200 debt

When something is that expensive I deem it necessary to download it for free.
