  Hopefully it'll have more compelling features than that 3D shit in Photoshop. If you need 3D learn a fucking 3D program there is a shit load of them to choose from, its not that hard.

  Also hopefully they fixed Fireworks this time

  The last feature I cared about was aligning points in illustrator. That was either CS2 or 3?

  • you can do that in CS4– monospaced1/2

    Yeah I run CS3 and it has it, but I wasn't sure when the feature was introduced.– bjm2/2

  preview of fonts in illustrator? not that i use it for designing so i guess a font preview wouldn't be useful.
  i know that every other program i use, including notepad, has this feature, so i probably don't need it in "real design software", but what the heck!

  • (yeah i know it's in the file menu before you say anything)– mydo1/4

    it has that– monospaced2/4

    you should know what your fucking fonts look like– PIZZA3/4

    pizza got it right

  oh do you think we'll all need to buy new computers too, as the ones we bought last year won't be quite fast enough?

  It'd be nice if they fix the shoddy GPU implementation in PS - I'd kind of like to have GPU whizzery AND a distinct, logical marquee, where I'd like. Having the compromise of either/or in this regard seems a little ..weak.

  Also, if they could entirely get rid of the 3D menu in PS. I've never used it. I never will. It's waste of electrons.

  Illy file sizes could be smaller - I saved off a really simple single-layer vector yesterday, to email out - it weighed in at over a megabyte. Much as I hate it, Corel Draw saved the same data in less than 80kb.

  Why the fuck can't Illy edit/export Fonts? We have a 3d tool in photoshop, but no entry-level means to edit glyphs? Daft.

  • hehe... waste of electrons– itstimefortea1/5

    There are other versions of Photoshop that don't have the 3D menu. They are considerably cheaper too.– monospaced2/5

    i didnt know corel could a save vector eps– Etype3/5

    It's a program for editing vectors?– detritus4/5

    I would buy it if they just made all the programs lighter/ run faster, that would be awesome– ukit5/5

  Illustrator CS4 does not support f*cking Arabic text!
  O_o but has some weird pattern tools that nobody use...

  still the multi-artboard was a great addition!

  • weird, my Illustrator CS4 does ... perfectly– monospaced1/2

    I take that back. Looks like you need an Arabic version of CS4 to handle the type correctly– monospaced2/2

• bulletfactory

  I just bought cs4 design premium a month ago. Wonder if I'm eligible for a free upgrade?
  Pain in the ass to have a newer version than everyone else.
  I have CS4 at work, but a few of my designers have CS3. If I tweak something in InDesign CS4, I have to export it to a CS3 interchange file or they can't open it.

  • yeah, that does bug, but CS4 has been around for awhile now– monospaced1/3

    yes, budget cuts had limited the number of licenses for CS4, so the juniors were s.o.l.– bulletfactory2/3

    my wife won a copy of cs3 mater collection, so i used that at home until recently. new computer; thought i'd upgrade– bulletfactory3/3

  Haha @ "not a flash user then?" Flash is 1/60th of the CS suite.

  Really? All of Adobe CS4 sucks, because your one program is not exactly to your liking?

  • totally, the normal "suite" doesn't even include Flash at all!– monospaced1/3

    CS5 - Normal Edition– kingsteven2/3

    "i'm quite happy with CS4" - "not a flash user then?" feel free to interpret that how you will– kingsteven3/3

  i quite like CS4.

  The annoying full screen view in photoshop cs3 when having multiple documents pissed me off as you had to restore one window, select another then maximise - there were however keyboard shortcuts to change between documents. CS4's PS tab system is nice.

  AE CS4, looks much nice, better layout.

  Although i do agree with some, there really arent many changes, and the new implementations generally affect very few people.

  also, lets be honest, Flash CS3 is so much better layout wise than CS4 flash, yeh i know you can customize your layout in cs4 flash, but it still doesnt match up.

  • There were keyboard shortcuts to switch documents in CS3--Ctrl+Shift+Tab.– dMullins1/3

    thats what i said dawwwg.

  Fuck! I don't want to buy another fucking upgrade! And my computers are old, too, and I don't want to upgrade those, either. This could cost me thousands. And for what? For what? What's so great about this new one?

  • If you have it, you can lord it over your peers, and have them hate you for being a smug cunt– rascuache1/3

    now that you've put it that way.... where can I join the line?– Amicus2/3

    Do you not make money using computers and software? It pays for itself if you're doing it right.– monospaced3/3

  I would be nice if Anti Aliasing of text in Potatoshop didn't suck balls anymore...
