Hi there I have a question regarding how to pay for Photoshop cs6 Standard. So my question is if I buy Photoshop cs6 standard and choose the 1 year plan to pay, after that one year is over what happens to my Photoshop? Does it get taken off my computer? Can I not use it anymore? Or do I get to keep Photoshop forever? And I have an aditional question. Is there a way that I can buy an earlier version like cs5 and if so does it cost less money than cs6? I would really appreciate someone to take their time to awnser this. Thank you in advance.

Subscriptions are subscriptions - you pay what you use. When you don't pay, the program stops working. And no, you cannot buy older versions from Adobe. You could try finding one on eBay or wherever, but there's always the risk of being scammed...

Adobe is a scam I have to pay £30 for something that I want to cancel and I don't even get to keep it afterwards???  Better with GIMP if you ask me.

Thanks so much for your help so as long as I live and have Photoshop on my computer, I will still have to keep paying each month? (Sorry I just want to clearify.)

You can still purchase CS6 as a download from Adobe and some supply channels may still have stock of the physical discs. This option is an install that will always keep working unless at somepoint in the future your operating system no longer supports CS6.

If you sign up for the Creative Cloud and make monthly or yearly payments, as soon as you stop paying and the period for which you are paid through is over, the software stops working. Your only option at that point would be to reinstate your payments in order to reactivate the software or sign up again and make payments.
