Adobe Creative Suite 3
Yesterday, I finally downloaded and installed Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium onto my computer. This includes new versions of Flash, Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, and more! And so far, I’m thrilled with the products.
The integration between products is now flawless. It’s remarkably simple now to import Photoshop and Illustrator files into Flash, which is going to save me tons of time in the long run.
Like many others, I was a little nervous when I heard that Adobe was going to acquire Macromedia. All kinds of nasty, unsubstantiated rumors were whirling about: Adobe was going to drop Flash, kill Dreamweaver, and set up their own colony on the moon. Naturally, none of these rumors were true. In fact, at the Flash Forward convention last year, we were told that the main reason Adobe wanted to acquire Macromedia was because of Flash. We also discovered that they were keeping the team that developed Flash in the first place.
No need to mess with a good thing, right?
Anyways, I just wanted to give a big shout out to Adobe and all the hard work they’ve done in the release of Creative Suite 3. The result is a masterpiece. Keep it up, guys!
Hey Craig, I watched your new video, “Intro to CS3″ and it looks very exciting. I will be acquiring my own copy of CS3 Web Premium here within the next couple of months. Being able to import a psd file into flash and being able to edit the layers of the psd file as layers in Flash is totally awesome. By the way, your training videos are awesome. I got the Flash Complete Training bundle and then went on to purchasing the “Definitive Membership”. In a matter of about 3-4 mos, just watching the video’s after work each day for a couple of hours and on the weekends, I was able to publish my first flash website on the web for a company. Check it out: http://www.creativestitching4u.com. I only look forward to bigger and better things in the future. Thanks Craig, your an awesome instructor…..
