Photoshop CS2 Free Download from Adobe

The internet giveth... and Adobe taketh away.

Servers are getting hammered right now... but they'll catch up at some point.

Well, this might just be the temporary solution to my problem!
I have the Creative Suite CS5 for Mac. Unfortunately, my Mac died just before Christmas. I'm hoping it can be fixed but in the meantime, I can only process photos at work (where I have CS5 on both my Mac and my PC--but also have actual WORK to do, which prevents me from having time to process photos).

I tried downloading Gimp and using the Nikon software to process raw files then gimp for additional processing, but it just isn't really working well for me. I can't get a good handle on making the workflow not seem tedious, plus I just don't really WANT to learn new software right now. I want PS!

I have a PC laptop at home, but no Windows-based Adobe software. Yeah, a laptop is not ideal for photo processing, but it's better than nothing! I think I'll give the CS2 a try when I get home--all I need is something to use until I either get the Mac fixed or replaced.

EDIT: Or NOT. Well, I'd decided NOT to download it anyway; too many things I love about CS5 at work to go backwards to CS2 at home.

I'm going to try downloading it for my son to use - maybe in the wee hours of the morning.

That's nice.
Not that I need it (I have CS6 myself) but it's really great for people that can't afford the newer ones, and CS2 is very capable of doing really cool things.

Danged work...getting in the way of the work of processing photos...

Here we are 7+ hours later and the linked to page still says "Site Area Temporarily Unavailable".

No, You Can't Download Adobe CS2 Applications For Free - Forbes

That's about what I thought.

It made absolutely no sense for Adobe to be distributing CS 2, free or otherwise.

 

[Onerider]

Well, heck. It won't run on 10.7 anyway.

Just kidding!

 

[dewey]

D'oh! The internet strikes again. Before I posted here I checked the link and Adobe was displaying serial numbers... so I thought it was on the up and up.

I blame the Mayans.

I really need to start paying for software. I haven't in years.

So, you're pirating and using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop CS6 illegally. And so you're admitting here, where we care about such things, that you regularly violate Adobe's copyright.

I have to bite my tongue now to keep from saying things about you that might get me banned. :angry1:

Hah no!! It was meant to be a dry joke, but I guess the interwebs doesn't have that button yet, my bad! Unfortunately for my wallet I've certainly paid for my software. I'll have to edit that post so it doesn't get misunderstood again. oops!
