Adobe Creative Suite
Written on 11:26 AM by Christian Olson
Being a poor student I've had to cut corners wherever I can. Most people are upset, because they've had to reign in their budget or live without things. HA! I've been doing that since 2001.
The problem is sometimes your really need something. Not just want it, but your NEED it. See, being an student in technology and education, I can't believe how much I use the Adobe Creative Suite. There seems to be a project that requires this Suite about every single day. It is so bad that I found a copy of CS1 yesterday in my computer at work and I jumped up and down like it was Christmas.
The problem is, however, that unless you have a rich benefactor giving you money, you can't afford it. So, I've compiled a list of software that will help you get by while in college. I hope this helps some poor college student.
- Instead of Photoshop, try Paint.net
- Instead of Illustrator, try Inkscape
- Instead of Premier Pro, try Free DV...actually it looks like Avid stopped producing this... how about this one I found off the internet: Wax
- Instead of Dreamweaver, try Amaya, Joomla, or Drupal
- Instead of InDesign, try Scribus
- Instead of Flash, try Adobe's new Flex for free
