Thats how I got my version. It is crippled, so if you really want to enjoy the full whatever of photoshop, you do not want the LE version.
Got mine that way. Well, not really. My dad bought a digital camera and a printer that both came with it. He got one copy, I got the other.

I have PS 6 and 7 - no comments on the source for those; but the Gimp works for just about everything for me.

I was a using a pirated copy of Sound Forge 5 but I made sure I paid for a registered copy of SF 6 when I needed a copy that actually worked and had proper support (I use sound forge daily and PS/Gimp very rarely)

Didn't pay. Won't pay. I also have very little legit software on my PC. $700 is too much for what I use it for.

I was shopping around for the latest PS version, 8 I think? I wanna use that "heal" filter, that's supposedly what everyone uses to make those mega-airbrushed pics we see everyday on the titty board. However, I read somewhere that it has some sort of copy protevtion that requires you to register over the internet before you can use it, so it'll rat you out if you copy it. Can anyone confirm this? Anyone know another place to get that airbrush effect?

Not Photoshop, but Paint Shop Pro 7. Bought and paid for.

Unless you bought a professional-grade printer, I can assure you that you did not get a free copy of Photoshop. Maybe you received Photoshop LE, which is a diluted version.

I think that this poll refers to Adobe Photoshop retail version, nothing else.

Yes, Adobe has silently implemeneted a "spy" feature in several new programs, including Photoshop 6 and 7, and Illustrator.

Upon installation, new Adobe software will send your name, serial number, and IP address to Adobe. This can be circumvented, however.

No, I didn't. In fact...I just installed it yesterday and have no idea in hell how to use it. Oh...and like sixate, I don't think I have a legit piece of software on this thing.

It's truly a shame to hear that the "I won't pay...ever" mentality actually exists.

People work hard to write software, just like people work hard to build cars or write books, and I'm sure that the same people who steal software (and it is stealing) don't steal cars or books.

Stealing is wrong, and if you're going to do it, you shouldn't be proud to say that you do ("I don't have a legit program on my PC <smiley>").

Heh, believe it or not, I bought this program for work at $80 for 7.0! I bought on this Russian website, but I am not sure what it is called. I thought it was going to be a pirated version when I saw it for $80. But it said that it was the full version, so I purchased it.
Received about 2 weeks later, and guess what....Perfectly Legit!
Score +1!

This brings up an intersting subject...

Most "Industry Standard" software packages are so expensive there is not a lot of people who can afford to pay for them to learn how to use them. I believe that now a days, companies are beginning to realise that if they issue a free version of their software, it will cut down on piracy. Photoshop is still an exception though. The Commercial Version costs something like $600USD. wich is a fair ammount of cash. And besides that people (myslef included) like to be able to edit their photos. I almost always have Pshop open. Granted i finally bought it this summer, but ive had a cracked version for a long time.

Programs like Avid, 3dsmax, Maya, Combustion, After Effects, and a whole lot of others are now coming out with "Learning Editions" so that the average joe citizen can learn animation or editing if they so choose.

bit of a rant.

Don't get me wrong, the fine people at Adobe deserve the money, Photoshop is a great product, but I don't have the money to buy it and I never plan on using it for any logo's or other pictures I am selling.

In linux GIMP is similar, but free.

I don't make money with Photoshop, not even in a remote way, so I don't think it's unethical to not pay for a $600 program that I only use maybe once a month for utterly useless things. If I ever start using it to do something I'm making money on, I'll go buy a retail version, until then I guess I'm a "pirate".

Wasn't sure how to vote on this, as a long time ago, I had a pirated version of Photoshop, but not in years. Now I use the Gimp, which yeah, isn't as good as Photoshop in many ways, but gets the job done.. Especially the latest development snapshots.
