I have Photoshop CS5 and want to upgrade to CS6. However, I don't want the Creative Cloud version. (I don't want to have to pay a monthly or annual fee!) I want to pay the one-time "lifetime" license fee. Where do I go to do this? How much will it cost? Or is this no longer an option?

I tried the link.

Now, all I get is that it's essential to update to CC.

I don't want CC.  Ever.

Now what?

Now you find a different digital image tool to use. There are other choices Photoshop Elements, Corel Paintshop Pro if you are using a PC. Personally I would choose Painter 2016 as the core feature set of the two programs are very similar, and if you are an artist Painter is far superior to Photoshop.

Probably not what you wanted to hear, but the price reduction on Photoshop is now such that it costs the same as Netflix per month, whereas 10 years ago you needed a bank loan to buy it. The subscription model is more appealing to the bulk of customers which is why Adobe adopted it and won't change it.

Since I apparently created this conflict, let me put it to bed. I think the question has been answered -- though as some have stated. not in the most polite fashion possible. I glanced at the screen so briefly the first time that I didn't even notice the "Creative Suit 6" was actually a link. Not everything that appears on my screen in blue is a link, believe it or not. And when you're answering questions on a board with users of all abilities, doesn't it just make sense to give a full and complete answer, as though you were talking to a kid who's just picked up a computer for the first time? At least that's what I try to do. Anyway, enough is enough. Let's save the bandwidth for more important things.

I don't want the suite, just the Photoshop application by itself. Not possible?
