Adobe Plans and the Elderly

[Gerry5478]

Forgive me if this is in ther wrong forum....

I have been using Photoshop since Photoshop 5 for personal use.  I'm now 84 years old and I'm afraid you've finally succeeded in pricing Photoshop out of my grasp.  I use only Photoshop, Camera Raw and Bridge and that's all.  My total income is a monthly social security.check, which makes over $200 / year pretty much out of my grasp.
Please, PLEASE provide us with a way to continue using our favorite photo editor.  I've been looking at other editors, but none can compare with Photoshop, particularly when it comes to layers abd masking.

By the way, what is to become of Bridge?  Are you dropping it?

Si....

 How come Adobe finds it so difficult to agree with Adobe??

https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/photography/compare-plans.html this is the link your looking for.

Teams and Enterprise plans are not for you. They allow for advanced user management and are pricier if you take only one or two licences. Companies safe here because (commercial and technical) management of the plan is so much easier.

The Photography plan is for professional photographers, but also for hobby photographers. It's a bargain, and I suspect that plan being highly successful in a competitive environment. And even such a plan gets sometimes even cheaper.

@Gerry5478 

click the "compare plans" link on the page that offers the adobe's plans.

Because that's where your s****d web page put me AFTER I logged in as a single user and asked it to show me the plans available to me!!!

Adobe is a big company with many products, plans, and possibilities in many directions, even directions that you and I will never take. It's difficult to get the correct information out to the right user. We, the more experienced user community, sometimes get confused and surprised.

As a side note: none of the participants here is an Adobe employee, so it's not our website… 😉

I finally found what I was looking for - My Account Page.  They make it difficult enough to find.  There are two photography plans available, the only difference I can see is the amount of Creative Cloud online storage available to you.  Online storage is the last thing I need.

Thank you all for your help.

excellent. 

(and you're right about adobe making it difficult to find that $10/mo plan - it easy to find right on that "plans" page without needing to click to photography "compare plans" link.)

As a matter of orientation: there is a 20Gb cloud space plan. That's for you for about $10/month. All other plans carry more Cloud space and may not include the same programs for the same price. 

Paying on the year is more economical.
