Lets tell the truth on photoshop and lightroom

Everyone who has Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Lightroom...did you actually pay for the softwares or is it pirate? I only ask because at least Photoshop is very expensive for alot of users to really go out and buy it.

I bought Corel Photo Pro X3 and used the money I saved to buy a new car. :toocrazy:

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

There is so much choice with Adobe, you can start with elements and work your way up after a period of time, you know you have the support of a great company, so why not.

I bought it, learned on education version on my friends laptop.

It's worth saving for, but I understand people's needs for the alternative.

I'm cheap. I use PSE 9. For my wedding work I've added in Portrait Pro. And yes, I paid for them.

I use the gimp if I need to. And no, I did not pay for it. ;-)

Not sure but I think your duckie is worth more than my car. :S
