We all know Adobe hates us using it this way, but who else reckons John Knoll is the one that started the trend of using it as a verb?

Why is it important that the Co-Presidents of Sony Pictures Television have taken jobs with Apple?Netflix and amazon have made some significant inroads with delivering award-winning Internet movies. Apple looked to a pair of award winners, to help them with developing significant motion picture content.The more motion picture production which flows through the web content pipeline, the more jobs are created and the more facilities, gear, and educational resources are developed.North America is already the world’s leader in media content production. That service sector industry, for North American audiences, cannot be manufactured in Asia—it’s home grown, here.The more the world demands North American creative content, the more everyone thrives.

Heaven forbid it's to turn on your computer and go to Adobe Forums website or grab your smartphone. If it's either of those you need a 12 step program and fast.

We frequent the dining areas of WiFi hotspots and meet many new friends including other creative souls working on big projects.Yesterday, we stopped to chat with three residential landscape architects who do beautiful work with technical pencils and rolls of tracing paper. We had to ask if they scan their drawings to drop into an Adobe or Autodesk app. After a few seconds of blank stares one woman said, “We’ve never heard of Adobe.”What’s to be learned from that experience?First, we don’t want to say, “We’re smart—they’re not.” After all, we entered the digital world before the Mac or Windows existed. Yet, we still love pens and paper, too.Next, could we collaborate with people all over the world if we never went digital?Our world would be a much smaller space, one we can’t imagine. But, that doesn’t stop us from celebrating the analog creative expressions of others.

I thought some of you in Europe (probably Netherlands and Germany) might enjoy this.  Adobe is hosting an E-Learning Roadshow that will cover several topics such as Adobe Connect and Adobe Video Presenter Express.I hope to attend the event in Oberhausen..... but it goes through several cities.Adobe E-Learning Roadshow 2017 – adobeelearning.eu I first heard about this through one of the speakers who is coming all the way from California!It really sounds interesting!

I was able to attend the Adobe Customer Experience Forum in Düsseldorf last week and truly enjoyed it.I was able to stay for the first half of the day, as I had other errands I had take care of.  However, learning more about the Marketing Cloud and user experience is always intriguing. Thomas Renk hosted the event and brought a large team from Adobe!  I was able to hear the first three speakers.  The two that I was most impressed by were Axel Schäfer and Michael Klein. If you have not learned about the Marketing Cloud then I highly recommend it!

Do Adobe product-oriented User Groups in various localities around the world still exist?On a whim, I decided to look them up, only for the Adobe site to show the worldwide directory of User Groups for no more than a split second before diverting my web browser to the Adobe home page. Does this mean Adobe has shut them down?Just wondering.

Hi, I'm looking to try then buy an animation Text programme. There are soooo many on the market. However, they appear to focus mainly on the animation side of things.What I'm trying to create is a training presentation where the text flows. (As though being written) But also goes bold, italic, enlarge or even highlight certain words or phrases, in sync with the spoken word. A character may need to appear (As though explaining) Would Animate be able to complete such a task? Or is Animate waaaay beyond that? (Which I fear)Regards Mark

Since this is an international forum I'm wondering about the world wide penetration of 4K Super HD delivery in various regions.  Down here in Aus, the only source is some Netflix programming--and even there only for those like me lucky enough to have high speed fibre internet.  However, I notice when I watch coverage of GP Formula 1 racing, that Sky in the UK (we see their feed) is pushing it hard.  If you don't have access now, do you have an info on future plans from the programme distributors in your area?More abstract, what are your thoughts on 360 degree VR?  I know a few fairly experimental films are trying this out but (speaking personally) think this must be a limited market--how many films could you really watch in the "first person"?

Hi everyone!  I'm a little new around here so I'll go ahead and introduce myself: I'm Kathleen (Kirker) Martin and I am working as the Support Product Manager for Mobile. Along with offering support for our mobile users, I am also a dedicated artist with a background in illustration. Recently, I have been live-streaming my creative process on Twitch.tv and I LOVE it.  Twitch is a huge online video broadcasting site. It is used primarily for streaming video games but has recently gotten a lot of attention for its Creative section (heard of the Twitch Bob Ross marathon?). Adobe even has its own channel where artists from all over the world (even a few of our own Adobe Evangelists!) stream their creative processes using a multitude of platforms.Here's the link to the Adobe Channel --> Adobe Twitch ChannelAre you interested in broadcasting your work on the Adobe Channel? Please note that there is an application process to become a broadcaster on the Adobe Channel. Not only do

oops see, wrote my text in the heading,lol.Hi all.

Yesterday was the Gay Pride March in NYC and the number of signs and banners in support of the victims of the Pulse massacre was staggering.The other day we went to a NY Liberty basketball game where all the WNBA players were wearing shirts in support of Central Florida.The massacre of 49 young people who were simply out dancing is hardly a thing to take sides over. But as soon as you add comments about terrorism, gun control, gun rights, etc. you've suddenly got a debate that has caused schisms in the US.So how do you feel about a company flexing its corporate muscles to make statements about what seems benign but could be considered part of a left- or right-wing agenda.Let's not use this topic as an excuse to take sides and blast each other. But let's look at the bigger picture. How do you feel about using Adobe products if Adobe has come out on positions that cleave people into two or more sections.

Hi guys. Finally upgrading to Sierra (and this time, it'll work with my GPU, darn it!). I have an old version of FontAgent Pro that wasn't supposed to work with my Yosemite, but did okay - but I know I'm going  to have to either buy their newest version or finally, switch out. So many of these apps seem to nickel and dime us - making us pay for auto activation when new Adobe versions come out, or making us have to log in online each time we want to use the app...So - what're you guys using on Sierra? Anything? Why do you like it? I do need something, I have a ton of fonts...Thanks beforehand for your suggestions.

A question came up in another forum about renaming files. That sparked a discussion on file renaming utilities. I thought I'd move that discussion here.What is your favorite utility for renaming files, on which operating system, and why is it your favorite? Let's help each other find our next best tools.

I have just ordered Photoshop Elements 15 from my home in the UK.It is NOT FUNNY to have to enter all ordering details twice when, right at the end of the process, one has to state that one's address is in outer space, i.e., the UK.I am NOT amused.I presume that this irritating feature of the "order form" affects all customers outside the US and not just me.Regards,John Hopkins.
