You can delete PS7 and CS1 but you don’t have to. Each new version will be installed in its own separate directory. Personally I prefer to leave the older versions – just in case you need them in an emergency.

As for the plug-ins. I would only import the ones you definitely need, into the current version. Too many plug-ins can increase the amount of time it takes Photoshop to load. So long as they are still on your computer it is a relatively easy task to copy them across into the current plug-ins folder as and when they are required.

Another way is to copy them all across, and add a tilde [~] to the beginning of the filename of all the ones you are not currently using. To reinstate them just remove the tilde.

Hope this helps. Glad you are going for CS2. You’ll not regret it!
