Software Reviews of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Upgrade [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: Photoshop CS3
Summary: 4 Stars
I waited quite a while to buy this upgrade because I had heard of so many installation problems from people who had downloaded and installed the CS3 Beta. I followed Adobe's direction for uninstalling the Beta and had absolutely no problems installing CS3. However, I did have some problems opening both Bridge and "Get Photos from Camera" (through the Bridge File menu.) First they did open, they didn't open again until I rebooted the computer. I haven't had the problem again for a while, so I hope it has resolved itself. Now, that it does work for me, I find "Get Photos from Camera" is a much improved way to downloaded images.
The new Bridge and Photo RAW are great improvements over CS2. You can now open jpegs in Photo RAW and have more controls available in general. In Photoshop itself, the Quick Selection tool is great, as well as the new Black & White Image Adjustment. I haven't used it too much yet, but I think the Smart Filters option seems like a very good idea. Overall, I am very pleased with this Upgrade.
Customer Review: Photoshop CS3 The Worst
Summary: 1 Stars
The upgrade to Photoshop CS3 has been the worst Photoshop experience in years. I have had to use Adobe's CS3 beta cleanup script twice, and Photoshop CS3 has stopped working again with a "License has Stopped Working" dialog box. And, of course, Adobe tech support is closed for the weekend and their tech support server is down.
It's almost like Adobe is becoming the General Motors of image editing. Lots of product lines and hype, but none of them work. I've already given up and uninstalled Photoshop Lightroom because of its problems.
Customer Review: Powerful
Summary: 5 Stars
Each upgrade has offered new and power packing features and CS3 is no letdown. The upgrades to the Selection Tools is a true time saver. I am in the process of redoing some of my old digital pictures. Customer Review: CS3 upgrade
Summary: 5 Stars
The new panorama-stitching feature is vastly superior to the previous one. It is worth the price of the upgrade alone.Customer Review: Good upgrade, still photoshop
Summary: 4 Stars
Photoshop CS3 is an awesome program. Is it a worthwhile upgrade from CS2? No. From CS and lower, most definately. I haven't really taken advantage of CS3's new features as of yet with acception of the new camera raw, I'm just set in my ways. I haven't experienced any bugs as of yet, the program starts up super fast and installation was problem free. I did install it on a vista machine so that could be why. I really love the new interface, it took some getting used to, but I love how its the same throughout adobe's applications (except dreamweaver). All in all, CS3 doesn't reinvent the wheel, it just adds little things to make your workflow a bit more streamlined.
