Website is extremely slow under heavy load for obvious reasons, but not a surprise.

Nice.

Downloading this now!

Shayper · 7 Jan 2013 at 16:10

Oh wait it's the old versions

It really is awesome.. the core functionality of CS2 is really perfectly fine for most tasks compared to CS6, so this is a mega bargain for a lot of people. Premiere was missing from my collection so for a bit of quick editing this is amazing!

And suddenly, illegal downloads of Adobe Creative Suite dropped by 50%

It's 7.5 years old.

You might have some fun trying to run that in Windows 7.

Not available too, was this some sort of promo? or a mistake on Adobes behalf.

Very cool. Despite its age Photoshop CS2 still a great image editor and is better than the free alternatives.

Edit: This site has the direct download links: <snip>

Might sound silly but is this legit/legal? I have a friend who may be interested but I don't wish to send her anything dodgy

The links link to Adobe's servers. It's legit.

It should be all right, CS runs fine in Win 7, or at least it does on my PC.

There is an installation issue on x64 but there are workarounds.

Yeh it'll be fine - plenty of people using CS2 on 64-bit windows 7. Might take a bit of fiddling up-front but it'll be fine.

Amazing offer. I'll be spamming their download servers as soon as the initial rush is over and their servers are working again!

Thanks! I've past on the links and am guilt-free
