I am a total loser. I complained because when I had CS2, I was able to make animated graphics. I haven't been able to do that since I got CS3, because all of the programs on my cpu got erased a while back, so I got a new one.

Well, now, months later, I discover the whole CS3 package that I got. Adobe Master Collection CS3 is what it's called. Now, I have all of these programs, and I have no clue how to use them or what they do.



Those are all the programs I have. I know what Dream Weaver and Photoshop do, but I have no clue about the rest :| I'd rather not break my computer trying to find out. It's got a whole bunch of kinks and viruses I'm trying to sort out, and my Photoshop itself isn't working. Help?

Illegally? o.0 How?

just so we're clear, you CAN make animated graphics on cs3. photoshop cs3 is like a combo of the old imageready and photoshop.]

if i were you, i wouldn't delete anything yet until you sort out your "kinks and viruses."

if you're only going to do graphics and only normal things, however, i would get rid of everything except:
photoshop, flash, illustrator, dreamweaver, acrobat, and MAYBE indesign.

HOLY YOU GET THE WHOLE SUITE!!!
Flash is for making animed pics like GIFs
Photoshop for editing pic
DreamWeaver for web designing also able to make GIFs...
Premier for video editing...
Firework is ... well its like another image editing tool that is used with photoshop
acrobat is the reader...

... thats about all i know >.<

i used InDesign to make pages for the yearbook when i was in yearbook my junior year.
& yeah that's all i know besides ps.

distiller I have no idea what it does
acrobat is for readin pdf files
after effects: great for making show reels
bridge makes it easy for you to open and transfer photoshop files onto any adobe prgram
contribute,I have no idea,
device central is so that you get updates for adobe on your phone
dreamweaver:coding
encore, no idea
the 2 extend things i hsve no idea

flash is self explanatory
illustrtor: great for vexeling
indesign:useless
livecycle: useless
soundbooth: for audio editing
stock photos is a prgram where you can buy stocks [pretty much usless]:]
