I'd prefer to report this confidentially to Adobe but cannot find the means to do so, but just to let you know ADOBE (are you listening?) I've received weird spam, possibly infected, addressed to my unique adobe email account registration address.  I don't use the email address for anything else and I log in using a password manager so it can't have been obtained by a key-logger at my end.  So someone has got my details from Adobe.

Hey all!  I am a new design student (just finished my first semester on the way to a BA degree in Graphic Design). I find that I struggle with pairing fonts; it's a black hole I go down & have trouble getting out of! I am looking for a secondary font that might compliment one similar to the one below. (I chose this style of font due to its similarity to 'The Jeffersons' TV show title font. ) After reading another forum post from another user, also looking for font pairing suggestions, I thought it helpful to include more information regarding the use & current design of this project. My boss asked me to create a logo/design for the name of her boat: 'Wheezy's Way' (inspired by her childhood nickname, 'Wheezy', taken from the classic TV show, The Jeffersons).The design needs to be fairly simple as it will be printed as a large decal or die-cut, which will then be applied to the back of her boat.The secondary font I am looking for suggestions on is for the word 'Way'.I will

I took pictures and videos using my iPhone 8 and my Canon Powershot Elph 180 and had a lot of trouble importing and viewing my photos and videos using both Photoshop Elements and Elements Primier.  I have about 2000 files altogether, probably 1600 pictures and 400 videos.  The videos total somewhere around an hour.  I tried importing into Elements and it took hours.  Here are some exerpts from my attempts to get help:"I have PSE premier and have imported about 2000 pictures and videos and iPhone live shots from my recent trip to Alaska.  My videos total about 1 hour.  I have imported all the regular JPG pictures, but can't play the videos.  I keep getting a yellow error screen that says "Media Pending" in several languages.  What can I do to see my .MOV files?""Playing a video file is relatively simple compared to editing a collection of video files.  Premiere Elements is an entry level video editor that is equipped to code and decode the fi

I have several brands and am liking Adobe Spark. But I only see that you can add just one brand. Is there a way to add more?

I've written a book that needs about 50 weird illustrations.  Is there any way I could get that done without paying thousands of dollars?Here's an example of the instructions for one.  I kind of doubt that Photoshop could be used for this, but what do I know?4D Olympic Swimming Pool with Racers.  There are four requirements.1) Color codingStart with an ordinary 3D Olympic swimming pool with racers.  Color code the racers.  The color depends on the distance above or below the surface of the water.  We use a continuous spectrum of color from red to violet.  The highest point of a swimmer that is above the water -- usually a hand or an elbow -- is colored violet.  The lowest point is colored red.  Everything in between is colored continuous spectrum -- red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.  2) The shape of the pool 3D: A plain ordinary 3D Olympic swimming pool contains water with a boxlike shape.  4D: Our 4D pool has a sim

I am not sure how many of you are aware of the #drawthisinyourstyle challenge on Instagram, but it can be really fun.An artist shares an illustration or design and then uses the hashtag #drawthisinyourstyle.  Then other creatives recreate the illustration in their own style.Well, I decided to submit my own challenge.... but with an Adobe theme!Here is the link to the challenge.....https://www.instagram.com/p/B0LUBqAieaw/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linkIf you are not on Instagram, then feel free to share your design here.Or... if you want to create your own #drawthisinyourstyle Instagram challenge, then feel free share the image and link here in this thread.  Maybe we can get some Adobe users to start their own challenges on Instagram by sharing their own Adobe inspired designs!

I will avoid using any Adobe products in the future. Impossibly nonexistant support, only texts, and a merry go round when I tried to unsubscribe via Ipad. Only possible via computer, but no info about this. Adobe kept billing me for Acrobat Pro and free stockphotos without any information. I saw it on my bankaccount. I cannot rule out that I missed stopping these acounts from running, but also I cannot rule out that I did stop them. Even that someone stole my Adobe identity. Even worse is to read  the post where someone ordered one program got billed for 16 times and also for another program. Adobe accounts have no security and they do not care. Warning!

Hi - I am using the iClone family of products. I'd like to know how to move a prop forward and backward in a scene. I know how to move a prop horizontally but can't seem to find a way to move it from the "back" of the scene to the front. For example, I'd like to have a prop move partially through a wall (prop), then recede to the back - behind the wall. Thanks! Bobin Iclone you move props (trees, walls, rocks or most anything in a scene is a prop) with the move toolthe steps are;select the prop you want to move by clicking on it in the prop list... check that it is not lockedselect the move tool from the tool listclick on the prop in the scene window with your mouse ... where you click matters i.e, the arrows lock your movement but the squares allow free movementp.s, there are lots of good youtube tutorials for Iclone but I'm also happy to answer questions here if you need more help... good luck with it mate

I want to apologize for something I said to a gentleman here in the lounge. Is there a way to do this privately? I need to explain why I said what I did and since it is of a very personal nature I honestly would like to keep it between the 2 of us.

Last year, I picked a few images from Adobe Stock to use to answer questions on the forum. I spent some time making my decisions, because people are sometimes so stressed by the time they get to us that I wanted to lighten the mood. When I get a clipping path question in InDesign, I use this cow. I have the clipping mask ready to go and I've used him repeatedly. I even think he ended up in one of my "Something for the Weekend" contributions. In short, I am very fond of this particular cow.Fast forward to this week, and to Republican congressman Devin Nunes' lawsuit against Twitter and a few specific parody accounts. One is @DevinMom and another is @DevinCow. Of course I checked out (and maybe followed) the cow account.I had no idea I was using Devin Nunes' own cow for my clipping path answers. I'm glad the cow is finally receiving the fame he deserves—because he is adorable— but I guess it's time to look for a new clipping path image.~Barb

Please encourage all to post on the WISH forum to get Adobes attention. https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.htmlIn order to achieve quality services and being committed to a company means one must be respectful in constructive criticism. I believe Adobe has made it close to impossible for designers to find material for proper use  by destroying access to the material assets. There is no possible way NOW to quickly search for like / kind assets and it is very disconcerting working with a company that changes the rules after the fact, with no notice and no alternative.If no one speaks up Adobe will not appreciate our shock of loss of creative materials, to be easily found and utilized. Perhaps no one showed their appreciation of these assets and felt they were useless. If you did find the market place useful, PLEASE go the wishform link above and let Adobe know!

I am far from being a prolific poster here, but I thought I would just warn you folks that I will be offline for at least a week. Tomorrow (Thursday) I go in hospital for a catheter ablation to try and correct an atrial flutter. They say it is a low risk procedure, but it involves at least one night's stay in hospital, and a week of very restricted activity thereafter. Being a dinosaur, my only home internet is via my phone, and reading, not to mention typing, on it is a PITA.But if it comes to the worst, my visit here has been fun.My Thanks to All.-OB

I am intrigued with this product and wonder if anyone has worked with this? Description is not very cohesive so need info if anyone has tried/worked with. Thanks.

Until yesterday I'd never heard of the Wish online shopping site.  I happened to Google an engineering item (Dial Test Indicator), and up came this price that looked too good to be true.  I looked at it every which way, and decided that it was not much money to loose if it goes pear-shaped, so pulled the trigger.  Then I discovered that list of items that interested me was endless, and became hooked!  All told I've 'risked' NZ$100 on items that would otherwise of cost me at least five times as much.I could have gone on...and on...and on.., but I don't even buy lottery tickets yet alone gamble on slot machines, and there is no way in this lifetime I'd walk into a bookmakers.  So I Googled Wish, and found a whole lot of one star reviews.   The average was two stars to be fair, which was balanced out by 29% five star ratings.  I recently read about people who sell phony good reviews on Amazon, so it probably pays to be skeptical.So I'd be interested

Hi all, I am hosting a UX meetup and would like to hand out Adobe promotional items, such as stickers, hats, water bottles, etc... Any one know who I need to contact for this?Thanks!

Hello guys,i think you all saw the presentation on WWDC about the new iPadOS. Would´nt it be nice if for example Premiere Pro or After Effects could run on that? I mean, now you can plug your external hdd in the ipad and start working. They added features like adding fonts, app exposé etc.What do you guys think? I know theres Premiere Rush, but expecially all the settings and features in Premiere Pro are so important for professional video editing. Would be a nice alternative beside the MacBooks.best regards from germany

I have noticed lately, that YouTube has really upped their advertisement campaign and ads are running rampant - at the start of videos, in the middle and also at the ends. They have also inserted TWO ads at the start of each videos now.Anyone else has noticed this too?Twice as bad as it used to be.I go to nsfwyoutube.com and then watch my videos there. No advertisements, ever. And full access to all regular youtube videos. I copy the link from regular youtube and paste into this site and watch videos there. No age-restricted videos either - all videos are accessed.  Perfectly legal too. Problem is comments are not there. I like comments, so find myself bouncing back to regular youtube. But to kill ads, this is way to go.Also, I used to use Privoxy - it used to work and destroy all youtube ads but lately works not.Wondering, what are people use to cancel ads?  AdBlocker extension is joke, please do not mention. Trying to find what others are using as legitimate ad blocker. wou

Question: Was the cartoon, 'South Park' entirely done with Maya 3d ?[Moved to the Lounge from the Animation tips and tricks forum - moderator]

Imagine going to any retail business, and being told, "We have too many customers. So, you customers ask each other pre-sales questions, and hopefullyyou'll get discouraged but not discouraged enough not to buy anything. Instead, you'll just stop bothering us with sales questions, and order the product. Okay, get lost. We're busy."It's a unique business strategy, but how does it work in the long-term?
