I would submit that I'm not alone in this circumstance, yet I continue to see others using dated versions of Photoshop when a subscription costs about $10/month...why?

Dec 31, 2015 12:07 | #3  Permanent banBecause CC sux, as does any other subscription-based system, that's why. And we've had this argument before, in many other threads, and it remains moot as neither camp is gonna convince the other to join.

Dec 31, 2015 18:43 | #12 I still use PE 8, enough for me at the moment. $10 a month, is $120 a year and that is the price of a single PE which will last a couple of years.

Wilt Reader's Digest Condensed version of War and Peace [POTN Vol 1]  More info Post edited over 7 years ago by Wilt.

"Not all of us either WANT or NEED to 'remain current' on software revs. We choose to decide WHEN we upgrade (in order to support a new camera model just purchased) and we skip versions of software because the intermediate ones are not NECESSARY for us. While newer versions may have new and improved software capabilities, we do not HAVE TO HAVE them right away. So if I upgrade for $99 (not the full initial purchase price $150) every four years, I come out with more money in my pocket than if I paid $480 in subscription fees." Our circumstances are different, our solutions are different. Neither approach is always better, but is based upon our individual circumstances. You need to give me OK to edit your image and repost!
