Many people in the design community may already know about
this but I thought I’d spread the word for those who fancy having a copy of
Photoshop CS2 for free to learn the basics.
A friend of mine told me about it so I thought I’d do a bit
of research and truth be told you can download Adobe’s Creative Suite 2 for
free on their official website here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html.
If you don’t know what you are doing with these files then I recommend you read
through the installation guide first: http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/magic/creativesuite/CS2_EOL/MLTI/CS2_install_Win.pdf.
I can say from firsthand experience that I downloaded CS2
this evening via these links and obtained Photoshop and Imageready CS2 with
Adobe Bridge chucked in of course. The serial key is provided on the download
page so be sure to use that when it asks for one – worked fine for me! What is
worth noting though is that CS2 is a package that dates back to 2005 so your
operating system may or may not impact its functionality. I fortunately have a
Windows Vista laptop which I installed it on successfully. Other operating
systems may have different experiences.
There have been a number of blogs saying that Adobe has said
that this is not a free download of CS2 (e.g. http://www.itworld.com/consumerization-it/334669/free-adobe-creative-suite-cs2-maybe-maybe-not),
however, I can say with confidence that I have been able to use the software
this afternoon and if you’re looking to get your hands on a copy for yourself,
well you know where to find it. This whole thing is definitely beginning to
sound like a scene from Tron Legacy when Sam Flynn gives away Encom’s new
operating system for free:
