every place seems so expensive. I need it for school and am having a hard time thinking about spending upwards of 600 dollars. Any ideas?

If you are actually interested in buying it legally then I recommend calling (not emailing or talking to online) Adobe they do offer educational discounts and you will get the best price though them.

Otherwise your best bet would be to download it through a torrent like the one listed in my sources. You will need a program like uTorrent (uTorrent.com) to download it.

You are in school? I have some good news for you. First, check with your school to find out if they have any arrangements to help students purchase the educational version/student license for Photoshop. It's still not cheap, but it's a lot less than $600.

Second, if your school doesn't provide such help, you can still order the educational version through one of the many on-line academic resellers, such as Academic Superstore and JourneyEd.com. They will ask for proof that you are a student, but you can order from them directly.

Good luck! And good for you for NOT asking the illegal question "How can I get Photoshop for free."

Please consult your guardian about this matter. They probably can help you with that.
