FYI, Adobe got hacked Thursday. If you have an account with them, you may want to change your password.

Over 3 Million Credit Card numbers stolen, plus the source code for Cold Fusion & Acrobat. You know the hackers are itching to get their hands on the source code for Ps, if they ever succeeded, Adobe is toast. Other market players, like Gimp etc will via underground methods want pieces of the source code so they can probably make Gimp a way better product then Ps has become up to this point, Ps still lacks full 32-bit support with filters, arghhh.

And people trust autodesk on cloud? cant wait

that what happens when you go to cloud and internet. pretty sure adobe marketing was like "100% safe cloud system"!

Oh, the cloud is real safe. Might as well add my my health information as well, the way governments treat these kinds of information, what is the difference.

At the same time you have people, those people are the ones who are infiltrated by Adobe praising it. While the rest are giving Adobe the finger and sticking with past versions or taking the plunge into other image editors. We all know Adobe won't revert back to it's old system, it's hell bent on this CC system, now Autodesk is following suit. The only option I can see now is Coral Paint, immediately to switch, not needed at this time.

That's funny. I just received an email from Adobe asking me to reset my password. Personally, I could care less. If hackers got in, they could take my serial numbers by all means. Not with the intention of being nice to them, but for getting back at Adobe and their absurd CC system. As for my credit card information on the Adobe system, it's already outdated so no worries there.

PhotoLine 18 - 59 euro or about 80 dollars.
