Straight to the point – Ive just made the jump to CS2 from PS elements and feel lost without the photobin at the bottom of the screen.

Can anyone tell me if CS2 has some type of window which does the same as the photo bin window in PS Elements?

Im used to navigating between open documents using the photobin thumbnails – even dragging layers from the main window onto another via the photobin.

I know I can Ctrl Tab to physically change the main document but apart from having two or more small windows is there any way to have some sort of photo bin type of window?

This is my first post and the reason for joining the site. I’ve spent all afternoon googling this but no luck. If someone can help me please speak up as I can feel myself slipping back toward PS Elements again….

Ive just made the jump to CS2

First off: How much did you pay for your copy of CS2?

If you paid the full price (around £650) you’ve been ripped off. Photoshop is now into version 10, which is PSCS3. Contact the company you bought it off an insist they exchange it for the latest version.

If you paid much less than the full price, it’s possible you’ve been sold a pirated version.

As for the Photobin. No such thing in CS2 (or 3) I’m afraid. As for any new software, it just takes a litle while to get used to a new way of working.

Best of luck.

Cheers Chris,

Your surmise that CS2 has been sitting on the office shelf for a while is correct – after using elements to dip my toe I back tracked every time I looked at the full Photoshop.

This time however I`ll stick with it. Shame about the lack of a photobin, I suppose a bigger monitor is the other answer!

Thanks again

Or a second monitor, which is probably a more effective way to go.
