Review of Adobe Creative Suite 5

Barence writes "Adobe today updated its Creative Suite software to version 5, and PC Pro has an absolutely massive collection of reviews. Along with an overview of the entire suite, from Design to Web to Production bundles, every individual component gets the full in-depth treatment. It includes video demonstrations of Photoshop CS5's fabulous Content-Aware fill trick and new Puppet Warp function; a long-awaited step up to 64-bit for Premiere Pro CS5; and big updates to Dreamweaver CS5, After Effects CS5, and the rest."

Nuts.

I just purchased Dreamweaver CS4 3 weeks ago. I wonder what their upgrade policy is?

I'd imagine their upgrade policy is "Yes, we want you to buy the upgrade as well."

removing an ex from all your photos

..and pasting her into pictures with hardcore porn. Pictures which then are posted on 4chan.

Re:Gushing, ignoring the important issues

[Anonymous Coward]

is Adobe continuing their trend of writing awful, inconsistent, ugly, usually-slow UIs?

I could not agree more, maybe Adobe could learn from the proven UI of similar Open [gimp.org] Source [wikipedia.org] apps.

"I believe in morality but I don't think I'm significant enough to have to abide by it".

Can't help but notice that the only time people talk about morality is when they want money. I happen to think that my point of view is entirely moral, but then I suppose our morals must differ. Babypuncher.

Try http://www.getpaint.net/ [getpaint.net] as an alternative to Photoshop.

It is very nice and free (as in beer).

Heck - just MAKE some ID. Invent a school. "Iceberg college" located in Teptula, Motana. Print it up all nice on thick paper and laminate it. Done. IT will take you a few hours, and save you hundreds of dollars. The stores don't bother checking. Just show your ID. As long as it has your picture on it, you're good as far as the knuckle-dragging idiot at Best Buy us concerned.

You are one humorless motherfucker. I hope there's joy down in Whoville tonight, because there certainly isn't any at your house.
