Overpriced (and worth every penny)...Jul 13, 2007
By B. Thedell
"Technical Writer"
Wow. Just, wow. Web Premium CS3 has contributed and simplified every single design task in my life, from web design to t-shirt printing to Second Life clothes making. If you ever feel creatively stagnant doing web work, switching from Photoshop to Fireworks really gets the juices flowing (if only by bringing a fresh POV in tools). They threw in the designer's kitchen sink here: you can even preview vector/Flash designs on cell phones in a program that does nothing BUT model cellphone graphics! Also, Bridge is finally something more than a cheezy add-on.
I was worried the Macromedia apps wouldn't work as well with Adobe; maybe that was true in CS2, but you can barely tell they're from different companies in CS3. Flash finally works hand-in-hand with Illustrator*, and in the right screen mode you almost forget where Photoshop ends and Dreamweaver begins.
Contribute is kind of pointless, especially if you know what you're doing, but if you know what you're doing you use Dreamweaver, and if you don't then Contribute is actually really good (and simple enough to be "mother-needs-tech-support" proof). Acrobat is waaaaaaaay overpriced on its own, but they just threw it in with Web Premium; it's really nice and has a lot of new features (I especially like the guaranteed redaction feature).
I almost wonder if Adobe shoots itself in the foot with this product: all you need more is InDesign CS3 and Premier Elements 3.0 and you can do ANYTHING except hard-core video editing (i.e. professional movies). Lucky for me, I got InDesign as an upgrade to PageMaker. :D
If you can afford it (I financed mine), then you should get it. There's nothing quite like the feeling that you can do most any graphic or design task with what will be the industry standard for the next couple of years.
*going from Illustrator -> Flash; Flash -> Illustrator still produces strange and unnatural vectors

EffectiveMar 23, 2008
By Dana Barfield I gave this product 5 stars because it is the best available resource for creating complex web sites. I was able to create and place a site including video and other advanced features.
Having said that however, the documentation and help provided by Adobe is sorely lacking. In order to effectively use all the tools contained in Web Premium CS3 make sure to purchase the "Missing Manual" series of books as well. Relying on Adobe documentation and assistance will prove to be very frustrating.

Works great & installs easily on VistaOct 30, 2007
By Barb This purchase was to upgrade from the 2003 CS. I bought a new computer with Vista operating system & thought I'd just go for the whole game. After reading horror stories online about installation I was prepared for the worse. But, it installed itself perfectly with no glitches. Photoshop is going to be a long study to get it working the way I want so one more book to buy!

Upgraded from version 7 to CS3Sep 25, 2008
By gringote This is pretty nice - everything is basically the same as before for the things I use it for (Photoshop). I like how Illustrator can convert raster images to vector images. I like being able to zoom in using DreamWeaver and its better support for newer html coding using divs and styles etc. I wouldn't use anything but Photoshop/Dreamweaver to make websites, so I give this a high score.

Overall great, with some problems.Jul 02, 2008
By Sara Duckett I am enjoying using this product overall... but I am having some major issues with using Adobe Acrobat 8. It keeps telling me to re-install the program to be able to use the features (like importing a word document to create a new form). I downloaded updates, etc.. and nothing seems to work. (I use Windows XP). It's extremely frustrating since Acrobat was one of the reasons I chose to buy the "Creative Suite" rather than just the individual programs I needed.
