You can actually open it in Imageready. LOL!

Just open up Photoshop CS, then launch Imageready and voila! the 20 dollar bill opens right up!
Then all you have to do is select "Edit in Photoshop" and it opens it up. What a joke!
confirmed...that works just fine
Confirmed, works for me too. Pasting into Photoshop does not, but this does.

Using the new Photoshop CS?

The big deal appears to be that people don't want a software company to decide what pictures they can open and which they can't.

Confirmed. It's not working in Photoshop CS.

Edit: Works using the ImageReady "trick". :D

This definately sucks just because in the future they'll probably stop people from using copyrighted images or various other images that they don't want peoploe to use because some group lobbied for it to happen!

***ALSO THIS IS FOR PHOTOSHOP CS OR PHOTOSHOP 8, NOT PHOTOSHOP 6, OR 7.***

While we're on the topic, how come none of my shortcut keys work in Photoshop CS?

Things like Ctrl + C or V don't work. Just nothing happens. I have to go and use the menus.

Due to the fact that you have a pirated version. It's a anti-piracy measure Adobe took to prevent pirates like you to steal from them :)

I don't think it's counterfeiters, it's the fact that Adobe can put a stop to someone using certain images at any given time. If you're a web designer, and you have a picture you wish to use but can't due to the fact that someone paid Adobe or lobbied for Adobe to put a stop to that picture working in Photoshop.

No one wants software companies telling people what they are allowed to do with the software.


Same with these copying machines.

95% of the people on here dont even have legit copies of photoshop.

Also its their software, if you dont like it dont buy it, or steal it.
