Cs4

anyone used this yet? just did find out about it, and was wondering if anyone out there have given it a shot. i looked at some new features of cs4 extended, and it seems awesome. esp. the 3D painting.

Just got it at work myself. So far I'm lovin' it! I don't know about 3D painting, but the new OpenGL rendering has smoothed out transitions and allows you to rotate the canvas itself. For what I do, that comes in handy. Of course, I had to re-assign the R key back to Smudge/Blur/Sharpen and turn off the pixel grid that displays when you zoom in super close. It's kinda screwy to look at. But so far CS4 kicks ass. Even Illustrator, I must say. And I HATE Illustrator. The last few iterations have been to quirky, but this version is much easier to use (resembling v8) and has been more stable for me. Maybe they've borrowed a couple guys from the Photoshop team.

cool. i looked into it and they changed quite a few things. makes me wish i would of waited a year to get photoshop, but for what i do, cs3 extended is plenty.

I just got it myself. Don't know too much about Photoshop, but I definitely like it better than my CS2 version I had earlier.
