The PS is dud, you need elements.

March 28th, 2004, 5:04 pm

Wha?? Did you jsut say the industry standard is 'dud'?

March 28th, 2004, 5:05 pm

The offer is dud.

March 28th, 2004, 9:33 pm

The offer is perfectly valid.

I just got a free copy of Photoshop Elements from a friend of mine 2 days ago - he got it with his Wacom graphics tablet, doesn't use Elements, and I can now go and take advantage of that offer.

Not meeting the requirements of the offer doesn't mean the offer isn't valid

Kool; how can I get it then, I don't have Elements

March 29th, 2004, 11:00 am

Get a copy of elements

If it costs you 50 bucks to buy a cheap graphics tablet with a free copy of elements, it's worth getting it to save $350 on the cost of Photoshop CS.

It's like saying "The offer is a dud, photoshop is only available for Mac & Windows, and I use Linux".

Kool, how much is that graphics tablet and how good is it?

I pm'd ya before.

March 29th, 2004, 6:28 pm

Just hunt around eBay.. I'm not sure how much the one was that my friend got.
