CS2 vs CS3?

What do people think about CS3? Is it better or worse then CS2? Thoughts?

In my opinion CS3 is the most spectacular Photoshop upgrade ever. No comparison.

CS3 is f_cking awesome.

anyone who thinks this is a missable upgrade needs their head examined.

Not an "abomination"? ;)

Charles, you know very well that the abomination epithet referred to a SINGLE item in the GUI, not the performance. And the abomination was easily susceptible to be conquered through thoughtful compromise. :)

(ALL I can say, NDA etc)

I know... just a little ribbing.
(and I'm in that NDA group as well)

I know. And you knew I know. 8)

And I know you knew I knew that you know I knew that you know too. B)

I knew a gnu’s nose knows, no?

I knew nothing and cannot talk about it any further.

I can't recall an upgrade version of Photoshop that was worse then the version before ;-)

No, but it has certainly happened with Illustrator! :D

there sure seemed to be a bunch of people in the Public Beta forum who dismissed CS3 as a missable version. making comments like there is nothing in this version that warrants getting it.

I think these people are just plain crazy.

It does nothing for me, but then I only use Photoshop as an illustration tool. PS 7 remains the biggest improvement for us brush only folks.

Steve,

Did you actually watch all those videos and read the blurbs in the links I posted?

Perhaps what you would want is something more along the lines of PAINTshop and less of PHOTOshop. :D

I use Painter more than PS for drawing anyway.. but no, I haven't seen the vids.... I'd better go look.
