I downloaded a trial version of Photoshop CS2 a month ago, it has now ran out, so I went looking on Adobe's website to see how much it was to buy. I had no idea that it cost so much. So I have been looking around on eBay and found this Photoshop CS3.
I know it is unlikely but will this be legit, and would I have any problems with the software if it isn't?
Has anyone else got any ideas where I can get it cheap (probably no more than £50)?

True but then I would need a crack, and I'm lazy.

Filters and a few bits and peices, CS2 is alot nicer than 7 and CS, CS3 just has a few extra bits from what I know, and they've probably changed all the shortcut keys to be cunts.

I have CS2, i just heard a rumour if u used the online services button it sends a request....Dont know tbh. The only reason i'd get a full copy would be if i was making something for a client.
But i don't worry about it, We all do it, we all download music and we all own at least one copied DVD. End of the day people aren't ever going to get in trouble for this kind of thing.

It goes without saying to not use the online services and updates with a dodgy copy doesn't it?

hmm... ive always updated all versions of adobe software online.
I cant see that they are interested in the 'little people'. But if they are getting the same requests from the same IP (i.e behind a company router) then they will be more interested.
