Adobe Creative Suite 3

Craig Campbell @ 6:25 am

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!
