Exploring the CS cd

Hello everyone....

I was just doing a tutorial via PhotoshopUser Mag & found out there was a "goodies" folder on the CS cd!

I found some good file formats for AliasWavefront (Maya), stock photos, textures among other stuff, like weird filters

Anyone knowledgeable on applying these filters in a useful way?

Anyway, all CS owners should take a look on the cd for some extras....

Regards
Fess

indeed, I had all the goods installed from day one

as for the other file formats, I havn't much xp with them, but some of the other filters are pretty generic, likethe old Dither Box...

nonetheless, extras are always fun

These are the things that the crackers miss.

Too bad for their dumb asses.

I also should watch the DVD that came with my suite. I have a hunch that whoevers on it knows a few more things then I do.

I just wish the CS Creative Suite came with a good manual or something. I have next to no literature with it. And now that its been a few months, why did I cheap out and get the standard??? Man, I wish I had Acrobat Pro...

I had the same delimma as u pec when making the choice -I knew I'd regret just getting the Standard, so opted forthe Premium AND for just an extra 59.oo got all the Mauals -- whoooaaahhh

I could scan them in for ya - err on second thought
oh well

Oh, don't tease a guy like that. I was never told about being able to pay a bit extra for the manuals. I can get by easily without Acrobat, but I just love a proper PDF workflow. It eliminates so many little hassles. But my printers all support Indesign now, so I guess I just have to suck it up.

If you want to let me "borrow" your manuals, I promise to send them back. ;)

he he - hope ya don't mind scibbles
cuz, ya know I read a good book without making notes or markings

"I was never told about being able to pay a bit extra for the manuals."

Not to rub it in, but had you done a little research on the Adobe website you would've known this. We can't always be expected to be handed information on a silver platter. In fact, it's almost always in our best interests to get independent corroborating information when it comes to matters of investment, whether financial or otherwise.

Caveat emptor.

Well, I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth, so I never expect a silver platter. Thanks for that though. I was more or less stating how it would have been nice for my vendor to mention this fact to me, sort of as a good business service. When I bought my iBook I got manuals, when I bought my bike I received a manual, and when I dropped 2 grand on software, I assumed I would also get a manual. Digging around Adobe's website is not high on my list of things to do, investment or not.

Liveius and learnius.

Cool Down everybody!
Anyways, there has never been a Photoshop Manual, but an user guide ;) http://store.adobe.com/store/products/special.jhtml?id=catAdobeUserGuides

Silver platter, someone?

I've heard that they have been revamped to be less 'dry' than previously...
