I've been a custumer of Photoshop since PS4 back in the nineties... I'm not interested in working in the cloud, nor online...

Is there any "normal" option to upgrade my CS6 version normally ?

I feel like being left over by Adobe...

No cool 😞

    CS6 was/ is the last standalone version. From here on, new versions will only be available as subscription.

    I'm seriously considering leaving Adobe. I've been on the subscription model for a few years now. Been using Photoshop since version 5, flash and Dreamweaver before they were with Adobe. The current subsription only model It is not cost effective and I find I would be better off purchasing, upgrading as needed and when able to as directed by the current market. Customer service with Adobe is terrible, I find they don't listen to their customers, most times you dealing with a call center in India. The online model is not working. I'm looking for an alternative.

    It's a pity... No other choice than to switch to something else then I'm afraid... I know it's not the same but I'll start investigate Gimp or whatever I'm going to find...

    I really don't understand. What's the point in working Photoshop in the cloud when you're on a portable with no connection ?

    Rather stupid...

    And much moe expensive i the long term then buying a licence...

    Thumbs down for Adobe...

    At least Lightroom is still available for download !

    Not everyone is dissatisfied.  You don't hear much from folks who like the value.

    Well I like the cloud approach it means I have a standard monthly amount to pay instead of a big lump sum, I get all the latest updates and I'm able to try other adobe software I probably wouldn't have done otherwise.
