We are grateful for all that Adobe does for the Ukrainian creative community and let us say thank you again. We appreciate your support during the russian invasion of Ukraine.We are very grateful for 6 months of free use of CC, but the situation in Ukraine is worsened during this time and many of us can’t work as much as it was before the war. russian bombs and missiles are hitting our electrical stations and large energy facilities and leaving us without electricity during the whole work hours and days and it doesn’t help us to grow money. We are risking to left without any money because of such a high level of risks that the powerless situation provides to us.A lot of creatives who work with companies and markets abroad already knew that people don’t risk ordering some creatives from Ukraine because of the war. The Ukrainian creative community is still struggling with less work and less money. We are trying to fight it all but since October 10 every day bring us new challenges.U

Hi,   I'd like to know if someone would have a link to get bundles of free photos reference.   I'm looking to go further on studying facial expressions and full body anatomy (turn around, different positions, etc..). I found some bundles (but not for free) on websites like [website removed as per forum guidelines] or other and if I go to free photos libraries, I most often don't have a set of the same person and to me, it would be much more useful to get a variety of faces and body of different people, each person with lots of pics.   NB: here's a sample of what I'd like to find for free if it exists   Thank you.

Hi Everyone. I was just looking to see who manages a website. Either personal or business. Rather than asking How you use it - What CMS? I wondered if anyone has a moment with the following...   Every CMS (Content Mangement System) has good and bad things. Wordpress is one, Sqarespace is another but there are a lot more. Some you have to have hosted by yourself or through an agency or one that is hosted by itself. Outside of the platform itself there are things you need to do on a day to day like managing content and SEO or review statisitcs and making changes that you need to do. With that in mind...   - What annoys you managing your site day to day? - What do you wish you could do/do better that you have to do to maintain your site/site content that you wish you did'nt? - If you use a CMS what do you wish it did / had that it does not do for you currently?   Thanks  

How do you get hired/admit for Adobe? What is expected of an adobe software worker? Just a big question I've had for a long time. 

A new icon on the lower right of my screen leads to information on Win11 22H2, which has...-Create folders for your apps in Start-See favorite files in File Explorer and Office.com-Show off your family with personalized emojis-Make videos in minutes (Clipchamp)--https://clipchamp.com/en/windows-video-editor/-Turn on voice access to talk instead of type-Use live captions for any content with audio-Swipe up for taskbar shortcuts-Customize your Start menu layout-Improve PC performance by saving resources in Efficiency mode-Find updated controls at your fingertips (brightness and volume)-Open games with a single touch-Turn on do not disturb automatically   I don't really need any of that, so I'm going to stick with Win11 21H2 for now

My specific motherboard would not use the M.2 NVMe drive with Win11 that I used with Win10 due to the new security requirements in Win11... so I switched to an SSD drive for the Win11 system   I checked Amazon and bought a USB drive housing, so I now have a 500Gig drive for file copies   At Amazon enter B0892BK5L6

I tried this method last year, it was excellent!!  From now on, this is my go-to recipe.  Allow yourself two days lead time to prep the turkey.  The prep makes all the difference.     Assemble stuffing ingredients in a lightly oiled crock pot (slow cooker).  Cook on high for 1 hour, 25 minutes. Perfect stuffing every time!  

Does anyone else feel really let down by the Pantone/Adobe split? The design industry is being squeezed from all angles; free design tools bult into software, stock sites offering templates, software subscriptions going up all the time, updates making hardware obsolete before natural end-of-life (awful for the environment by the way)... I have a brand job I set up a while back and I just realised today that with the currently availible Pantone options, I would not have been able to colourmatch that job to the RGB and CMYK values. I would HAVE to buy a Pantone subscription.  Perhaps I'm just having a freelancer down day, but it feels like we're being squeezed out of existence.  

Question to Adobe Affiliate Program. My website is verified but can't see any ads available for the affiliate program and can't seem to place a tracking link that works. How do I create links so that I can put them on my site? 

I recently came across this post by Enrico Bertini with a great set of guidelines to make your data presentations visually appealing and easy to understand. The author provides many excellent examples, provided by PhD student Daniel Kerrigan, such as these two on spacing objects and use of heavy borders. I'd love to hear your thoughts and any other guidelines you might have when it comes to designing data!     Clarity and Aesthetics in Data Visualization: Guidelines - by Enrico Bertini - FILWD (substack.com)  

Hi! I am doing a research project, and I was wondering if there are any numbers available on the total amount of Creative Cloud (all apps) subscribtions, and how this is broken out between the number of individuals vs. the number of enterprises?Thanks!

We can make this a thread to post relevant cartoons, photo edits, memes and other assorted witticisms.

New to HTML5 ad creation. Wondering which app (in or out of Adobe eco-system) is popular or recommended to produce ads that are compatible with Google and non-Google environments. Thank you.
