@packetcat but the good news is, no one has to use Adobe software anymore. almost all the essential functions that used to be exclusive to Photoshop are now available on free beer + freedom applications that have a reasonable user interface, like Krita.

@forestjohnson lol, you are the second person to mention this nulling of Adobe's license validation servers for CS apps

I have also done this in the past because I wanted to have CS apps installed for funsies (never actually made any real use of them)
