Do use know why when I’m using adobe that things go really slow? It’s OK in word. My friend has a compouter and his is faster? Is it because on his Imac and mine is Windows? its photoshop 5 I think.

Thanks

Tell us a bit about your system. What os. What processor. Are you and your friend both using the same version of Photoshop from the same CD?

oh boy…

Ok, for starters Nige, you may want to consider "purchasing" Photoshop for yourself. It’s a great piece of software but you really should own a license to use it.

should I ask him for it?

Definitely not. Uh…he probably shouldn’t have it either (PS AND Illy on the same CD?).

Further advice…answer your front door. Adobe has sent the feds to your house. This IS their forum you know. 🙂

So you’re saying the "Best of Adobe® and Macromedia® 2003" CD isn’t legit either? Who’da thunk it?

That’s funny robert. Everyone thinks its pronounced like ‘Genie’ but it’s actually like ‘gay-knee’.

Actually it’s probably pronounced more like ‘black-listed’ after that prank! 🙂
