this got told to me via my photography circles
QuoteWhen Adobe officially announced its special Creative Cloud plan/bundle for photographers, there was a catch: you had to own Photoshop CS3 or above in order to qualify for the special $10/month pricing. Well, no more. For a limited time, Adobe is lifting that restriction and making the special bundle available for everyone.
In case you didn't read our previous coverage, here's what you get when you sign up for the Photoshop Photography program, as it's called: Photoshop CC, Lightroom 5, 20GB of online storage, a Behance ProSite, access to Creative Cloud Learn's training resources and ongoing upgrades and updates.
Of course, there is still one catch. This isn't a month to month plan, it requires that you sign up for 12 months at a time. Still, it's a pretty solid promotion for those who use the Adobe suite of products only for photographic purposes, and that price will never go away as long as you continue renewing before your year is up.
Those who don't have CS3 or above will want to jump on this, as the offer is only valid until December 2nd. If you do have CS3 or above don't worry, the original promotion isn't going anywhere. It seems this is just Adobe's way of warming up to a slightly disgruntled user base coming up on the holidays.
If you have any questions about the program, head over to Adobe's FAQ page by clicking here. Alternatively, if you're ready to jump on the bandwagon and sign up, you can do so at this link.

the lightroom may not be of use to most here(it'll do me) but a full functioning copy of photoshop cc for that price for a years use, the free portfolio site and the cloud space isnt to bad
Ooh, this is pretty cool. Thanks for the heads-up! :cool:
Here's another neat thing I discovered tonight:
If you have the iPad app SketchBook Pro, you can import and export .psd files, including layers. Although many of the blending options are not there, it is possible to skin on the app. I just made an Iron Fist skin as a proof of concept, and even though it's not perfect. This app could be another option for skinners
