What kind of photoshop will i buy??? w/ the image ready??? Pls tell what version
Comment by katrina — April 20, 2006 @ 4:08 am
Version 7, CS or CS2 will have image ready.
I suggest the newest version, CS2, as it has some really amazing features and it is what we use.

Correct me if I’m wrong but if you install the Photoshop trial, you get to work with ImageReady foreever it doesn’t expires.
