    Hey Guys,

    I am about to embark in another level of my consulting...and that is joining your world in doing Graphic Color Blocking for products.

    However... I was banking on getting a copy of the CS2 Suite...which I heard was pretty good to have...although all I will need is Adobe Illustrator...

    But that lead and connection did not come thru...

    Sooooo....I am wonderin...

    Is it easy to find copies of this CD? If I were to try and purchase it retail.. would I be wasting my money as or would it be easier to try and just find someone who has a copy of the Suite?

    I don't know if I am ready to invest $2300 or so dollars and then have someone call me and tell me they have a copy!! lol

    Who here uses Illustrator and who uses Photoshop?

    Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.. feel free to email me if need be.

    Hi_

    I use both Illustrator and PS.

    Depending on your computer, I have a MAC so CS2 really lagged and didn't work well for what I needed to do.

    CS3 is GREAT! It has a lot of functions for Photographers and new a few new features.

    If I were you, first call all your buddies to make sure they have a disc. If not I'd invest in getting CS3. Or do it

    If one showed up..I'd love it... but I am doin all I can to exhaust all options.

    Thanks for the insight. I have also looked into purchasing a MAC as well, as I heard it's best to run CS.

    I am crossing my fingers something comes thru..

    A few months back I got an email about it...but I think it may have been about 2 or 3 months... not quite sure.

    ebayologist.. Good Info.. Highly Appreciated...

    From ALL the IT professionals I know.. all of them don't have Graphics dept's where they install Adobe PS or Illustrator on the pcs or Macs... So lookin for the entire Suite is more of a stretch.

    I am still holding out on hope.

    I will be using this for more color blocking and reshaping of products to smooth out lines and make them flow if the lines appear off from the initial designers specs and design.

    Thanks again.
