I want to invest in Adobe Design products but I do not have hundreds of dollars to purchase the entire suite (Illustrator, Flash, and Photoshop are the three I want.) Anybody know how I can get my hands on some used older versions or something?? BTW...I already know about GIMP and have used it. Just wondering about how to access Adobe for cheaper, other than the fact that I could access it when I go back to school obviously.
check ebay I guess you'll find some versions for a good price if you are planning to buy photoshop go for a version higher then ps 7
Ebay or Craigslist is your best bet. Keep in mind that while new versions of the software are expensive, it's a good investment. Once you make the initial purchase, you can upgrade it for years to come at a substantially lower cost (as opposed to paying full retail for the new version).
I think there is something like discounted versions for students. I read about it somewhere. I'm not sure that the offer is still valid or whether it has expired. Try to google it
