what program do you use?

[lizzyfizzy]

just curious. :)

(standby for poll)

[lizzyfizzy]

oh and i use PSE 5

[ditzyscrap]

CS2. I started with PSE and upgraded soon after I started designing. :)

[switchwiz]

I started out ages ago with Paint Shop Pro, way before scrapbooking and just can't seem to switch. I do have PSE's also but I just have such a hard time trying to figure out how to do something that I can do in PSP--I do have some actions and stuff I use occasionally in PSE

[Megan Turnidge]

PSE5er... wishing I was a CS3er! :p

[~Julie~]

CS 2

[amandabarugh]

PSP

[Linz]

CS3

[gracielou]

Just got CS3 for my birthday but with the huge discount from Academic Superstore since hubby is a teacher. I started digital with Digital Image Suite. Upgraded to PSE 6.0 not long after and now I am totally in love with CS3.

[nesser1981]

I just upgraded to CS3. That's in hopes one day I'll actually start a photography business too, not just for scrapping. LOL! :)

[NettieB]

PSE 6 - looking at PSE 7, just finally comfortable, so not sure if I'm ready for CS yet

[Joan]

Love my CS3! :thumbup:

[Kat Stokes]

PSE 5 but I wish I had CS3....

[BrattyMeg]

CS2 for now..Once I get my Mac i'll have to upgrade to CS3

[Nettio]

I had CS2 on my PC, CS3 on my Mac now. I love CS3. :thumbup:

[Megan Turnidge]

Wow! I can't believe so many of you have CS3! I always figured most people had PSE since CS3 was so expensive.

[Jennifer]

CS3, but I also have PSE6. I use CS3 for all my digiscrap stuff.

[**Holly**]

CS3...I have a friend who is a teacher that hooked me up! :) I started with PSE4

[SeattleSheri]

I started with PSPX, then I got PSCS2 and eventually upgraded to CS3. My hubby is also a teacher, so I got the discounted version at CampusTech.

[crystalbella77]

I use PSE 5

I cannot imagine a day my hubby would let me buy CS3...though I want it desperately. :(

[AmyM]

CS3 is WAY out of the budget for me and would probably take me forever to learn. I use PSPxi. Don't think there's enough new stuff in X2 for me to upgrade. Only complaint is that I can't have actions and good scripts are so hard to come by.

[Brooke W]

Too bad they don't give discounts to postal clerks,lol.

I still have PSP but use it for my msn signature/tagging stuff.
The PSE6 is what I use for scrapping.

[lauren grier]

you know you skipped one.. :D I use CS .. no 2.. no 3.. just CS.. :D

[lizzyfizzy]

you know you skipped one.. :D I use CS .. no 2.. no 3.. just CS.. :D

i thought so...dangit!

[OrphanAnnie1016]

PSP12 here. Though I have PSE 3 in a box waithing to used. Scared of change, but would love to be using CS 3.

[sugarink]

I started off with PS7, then CS2, then now CS3 :)

[littlekiwi]

I started out using PSE 5 last year til the organizer had a fit with me so earlier this year I upgraded to PSE 6 so needless to say I am not upgrading to PSE 7 quite yet!

[newfiemountiewife]

I use CS3. I used PS7, then CS2 and upgraded. I use it for my work.

[ZaCola3]

I use PSPX2...Just switched from X this Summer!

[Darcy Baldwin]

I'm using PS CS

[stayawake]

PSP - I've beem using it for years, and we own CS3 ( husband uses it for work) but I have NO idea how to do anything in that program!! sad I know.

[sammi]

PSE 6 - looking at PSE 7, just finally comfortable, so not sure if I'm ready for CS yet


That's me too! I downloaded a free trial of cs3 and got so frustrated...it felt like starting from scratch again.

[LeeAndra]

Sadly, I have been using PS 7 for the last five years, but I *will* be forced to force FI into letting me use his discount before he graduates next June to buy CS3 & LR2. :)

I will likely die the day I can FINALLY use text paths on my pages!!

[LibbysMommy]

I use CS2 and LOVE it!! I've been using it for over 2 years now and I am extremely attached!!

[mommy2aria06]

CS3...and I LOVE it!!

[nikkiARNGwife]

When I first started scrapping I already had PSP9 on my PC so I started and self taught with that. I've since upgraded 2 times to X and now X2 and X2 is my favorite by far. About a year ago I decided to try and make the switch to PSE 5 and purchased it and I just couldn't do it...it's SO different from PSP and my brain only works in PSP now lol. I do use PSE for photo actions and things that I can't work in PSP though.

[ColleenSwerb]

CS2.
Hoping to get CS3 sometime in the next year through academic superstore since Jordan's sister just started at Penn State. Hoping to get Lightroom too in the same manner :)

[cbettua]

at home cs2 for the mac, and at work Photoshop 7 for a PC

[tuneskids]

PS 7, so I put other.

[meems]

started with PSE3, then PSE4, then PSE6 and now I use PS CS3.
I love PS CS3, although it took me a little bit to adjust to (the no photo bin was a big bummer). I was able to get it at a discounted price through a Wacom offer; it was still pricey but I am glad I did it.

[*Kelly*]

CS3 but I'm a beginner so I know anyone watching me do a LO would cringe at how I do it. There are so many tricks and shortcuts that would make my creative process a lot faster.:mellow: but I haven't learned them yet

[HeatherKS]

PSE 5

I'm debating upgrading to PSE 7 when it is released or making the jump to CS3 instead. I just don't know if I can justify the $$$ for CS3 though. Hmmmm.

[kscwgirl]

Started with PSP 9 and then Meg forced me to use CS2 and I will never go back. Love it. :)

[Paula]

I use CS3 on a Mac.

[melmos75]

PS7 - Old program on an old computer - needless to say it takes me awhile to get a LO done. Trying to talk DH into upgrading soon, the computer and the program.

[mrs_jb]

CS3!!!

[scrappychic]

PSE 5, still have lots to learn!

[scarletsierra]

I'm a PS girl (CS3)..

[scrapmonkey]

I have PSE4, but I am hoping I will finally get the upgrade to PSE6 (that I've been asking for for nearly a year) for my birthday next week. Especially now that I have to deal with Vista (which doesn't like PSE4).

[Winter Ivy]

Other> PS 6.0. Sometimes I feel like I am writing with a pen that is running out of ink, then I learn something new. It's good for now since I still have so much to learn. But it is also annoying because 9.98888888 times out of 10 if their is an action, style, or texture, or even a custon shape that I see out there for free it won't work w/ the version I have.

-Diana

[Becca Bonneville]

I use CS3 extended and love it!

[Voodoo_Bryn]

CS3 over here.

[heatherdumas]

I have PSE4. I got it 2 years ago so I could journal on my 12x12 layouts. I have a Wide Format Printer. I got hooked on digiscrap. But I never got any comments in my gallery. So I gave up for over a year. In July, I started coming here, and I love it here. SO now, I have done enough pages, I think I want to upgrade. I need text on a path!!! Hoping for CS3

[Mamasita]

I use PSPXI and love it so much that I can't justify upgrading right now.

[Stacey42]

PSPX2. I've been using PSP since version 5. I just don't have the patience to learn CS2 or 3 or PSE, even though I have PSE6. I'd rather just scrap than spend the time learning. :)

[cheltzey]

GIMP user here! I own PSE 6, but I really like all the functionality that the GIMP provides.

[mixedclawzz]

PSE5er... wishing I was a CS3er! :p

Same here!
I started with PSP8, then got CS2, then when I got my Bamboo Fun I got PSE5. I have used that the longest. Only used CS2 for like a month. Found it intimidating. Now that I have been using pse5 I think it would be easier to use CS now. I want CS3 for text on a path too.

[Melissa Bennett]

CS3 extended here.

[Kim]

I started with PSP 9 and went to CS3 once I started really getting into photoediting.

[kresta]

Started w/ PSE 2, then PSE 4, now PSE 6.

[SirScrapalot]

I started in PSE5, but I upgraded to CS3 when I started designing seriously.

[HeatherStokes]

This is ME exactly. I learned (self taught) making sig tags in PSP 9 I think it was and now we have PSPX - hubby bought Photoshop (not sure which one) and it sits on the shelf. lol I don't even have it INSTALLED - I am TOO SCARED.

[MelindaH]

PSE 3.0
