but I got my free copy and I was delighted. Actually, I got 2 free copies.

I am more interested now that I can get a double bang for the buck since Adobe bought Macromedia. For the price of the subscription, I wouldn't have considered it before since I am a web designer by trade, a graphic artist by hobby.

Overall, I think it is a decent magazine. It has a range of articles -- they try to cover each of the products to some degree. The May/June issue had an article on font management. The March/April issue had an article on switching to digital photography. They give some tricks on how to do certain things in the programs, etc. They also do product reviews as well

If you don't use the entire Adobe suite, the magazine might be overkill, though. You're "tips & tricks" will be limited to just a few and the rest will be stuff you might not ever use. I have both the Macromedia suite and the Adobe suite so for me it is a good coverage without having to subscribe to 3-4 different magazines.

I believe there is a magazine called Photoshop User. I am not sure what the price is though. It supposedly deals just with Photoshop.

There is also a magazine that is strickly for Photoshop Elements. Again, I don't know what the pricing is on it. I believe it is called Photoshop Elements User.

If you don't have the entire suite, I would certainly check out the others first.

Ok, I went looking. . . the Photoshop User magazine you have to join the NAPP and that's pretty pricey. The Elements magazine is about $50 in the US.
