Hi all!  I don't know if it's the best ctegory to post but my 8 year old girl really like to draw, paint and color on paper. She often use the tablet from her grandma to color sketches and she likes that ! I want to push a bit forward her passion so I was looking for a drawing tablet, like a wacom or xp pen, with a pen so she can draw a bit on the computer.  And then teach her how to do saw I'd like some advices if someone had the same idea for her/his kid. The requirememnts I'd like to have:* not toot large, not too small* using a pen* color/sketch app easy for that age (Not illustrator)* An app to learn how to sketch person, figures, etc (if you see what I mean) with steps* able to color sketches from an app or imported sketches (let's say the app shows the paths of a unicorn and she can color it) Thank you for your feedback ! 

Please help: How can I get rid of this ADOBE DOG PHOTO that shows up in my Outlook email about 500 times a day...? Thanks very much. 

Hello. It is good to be here.I was a graphic arts vendor with Adobe in the early years.Now now I'm planning on enjoying some creative playtimewith magic apps.V/r, James Edwards

HelloI have found this Adobe boxed software collection on a flea market near my town.I have never seen anything like this before.

I've been having a problem where whenever I try and create an Adobe Affiliate account by clicking the apply now button on the Adobe website, it first takes me to the tradedoubler sign up page but then instantly redirects me to a sign in page. I hav tried everything I can think of. Different devices, incognito browser, clearing cookies, nothing seems to work. Does anyone know how to fix this?  

Hi all Apologies if this is in the wrong part of the forum; please move it if so. I just wanted to see what people's experience has been like with Windows 11 and Adobe Apps in 2023. I've been holding off upgrading from Windows 10, but feel like I want to try the Windows 11 experience! I've searched the Adobe help and forums to see what is and isn't working, but would appreciate any input from anyone who can give their insight. I'm just wary of making the update, running into issues, and then trying to figure out what to do next (I'm self-employed so any downtime is a nightmare). I mostly use Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat and InDesign, with a little bit of Dimension and After Effects. Oh, and Bridge of course. Thanks in advance, and I hope other people find this useful. Neil

I have a feature update for my Windows 10 system available: I'm curious to see what features get updated and what new features I should expect. Please be aware of the biggest list of features I have ever seen. Adobe should get inspired by this... 😄           So, I clicked… and       Tada…       …after a long loading time…         Information policy as you like it. I copied the whole feature list. That was a lot of work. Pfffffffffff…

We used to get 3-4 robocalls per week, except during election season.  But now we're getting 10+ robocalls each day on each of our mobile and land lines. 😠    Admittedly, some robocalls are beneficial  -- pharmacies and doctors use robocall reminders. But the majority of them are just spam.  Private analyses shows that U.S. consumers are receiving 4 billion robocalls per month.   The so-called DO NOT CALL registry is useless because scammers couldn't care less about it.   So what can you do?   I let my phone go to voice mail unless a) I recognize the caller or b) it's a call from my local area.  But that's not reliable due to widespread spoofing now.   1. If you don't recognize the caller, or they don't leave a voice message, block the caller.   2. If you do pick-up and the caller asks, "can you hear me, can you hear me?"  Do not say "yes."  Instead say "I hear you, who is this?"  Or "no"

Most money lost by anyone in human history:  $200 billion since November 2021. Congratulations, Elon Musk! https://www.tpr.org/business/2023-01-12/elon-musk-has-lost-more-money-than-anyone-in-history-guinness-world-records-says

Automated driving systems are wonderful in theory but numerous complaints and accidents stemming from malfunctioning self-driving & auto-breaking vehicles have been filed with NHTSA.  And there have been multiple reports of passengers stranded in unsafe locations by immobilized self-driving Ubers. https://www.carcomplaints.com/news/2022/cruise-self-driving-cars-under-federal-investigation.shtml https://www.carcomplaints.com/news/2023/tesla-phantom-braking-class-action-lawsuit-model-3-model-y.shtml  

A bomb cyclone, also known as bombogenesis, is defined as a rapidly intensifying storm that happens when atmospheric pressure drops significantly caused by overlapping warm and cold air masses.  Temperatures can suddenly drop tens of degrees in minutes creating ice hazards on roads, bridges, aircraft & waterways.    Much of the U.S. (west to east and below the Gulf Coast) will be impacted by extreme winter weather this holiday weekend.  The intensified storms and snap sub-zero temperatures are creating chaos for holiday travelers.    Footage of blizzard from a Wyoming Highway Patrol Trooper cam.   This morning, Casper, Wyoming reached a record-breaking 42 below zero.   Sub-zero temperatures can cause frostbite in as little as 10 seconds.  Stay safe everyone!   

Ever since Elon Musk has come around with giving out Patents for free and laying out technology fast instead of rolling them out slowly like molasses so they can make money off like the old companies, clear throat "Apple" or "Microsoft," these companies are a dying breed that is selfish and never share their patents and follow the ancient form of business. Common Adobe, can you not be as greedy as the other companies and discount your products? Sell off your mansions like Elon Musk did and get rid of your expensive belongings; you do not need them anyways; why do you need to show off your rich anyways? You need to expand the business, buy $$$ some social media companies and disrupt the world, not bling, bling or staying quiet. 

Hello...I have a company that wishes to purchase my .psd files of book covers to make audio covers themselves. I offered to make the files, but they want the psd and to do it themselves. They saidWe are interested in licensing the cover artwork for our audiobook editions. Please send me the licensing information for the following titles: I have no idea what they want here. Isn't this a problem with the stock images I purchased as well? If someone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.  carrie

Note... I learned that a gateway is a modem with a built in router to connect RJ45 computer cablesMy 6 year old Cisco DPC3941T Xfinity (Comcast) modem/gateway still works, but since it is now 3 generations old (models XB6-XB7-XB8) it does not have the latest built in security technology... plus it is 'about' half as slow as the latest versionI have ignored past emails from Xfinity offering a no cost trade but this time I decided it was time to retire the old Cisco and install a new boxI made this decision only AFTER I talked to a woman in tech support who said that I could go into the new modem and set the WiFi names to be the same as I already have... So I would not need to go to every WiFi device and do a new setupTo verify this I went into the Cisco... 6 years ago I changed the default password (printed on a label on the box) and changed the passwords for the 2.4 and 5.0 WiFi lines to ones easier to use when adding a WiFi device (such as a cell phone)I had not changed the WiFi line

Woke up to very low water flow from faucets... wife did a search, possible reason listed as a burst water pipe   Checked and couldn't find any problems in the house... wife called plumber, he said to check water meter   With a faucet in kitchen running the water meter dial was spinning... turn faucet off, dial was still   Water pressure problem not in our house... called utility company   About 10-15 minutes later a worker came to our door... they did not (yet) know the cause, but other people in the area were also reporting low pressure   My guess is a bad pump or a water main leaking... but, now that utility company knows I'm sure they will fix   So... if you ever have low water pressure the first thing to do is check your water meter... if the dial is spinning with all of your faucets OFF you have a water leak
