<div class="bbcode_container">
	<div class="bbcode_description">Quote:</div>
	<div class="bbcode_quote printable">
		<hr />
		
			From next month, continuing access to the programs, either individually or as a whole, will demand a monthly fee.<br />
<br />
Standalone versions will still be available but will not be upgraded.<br />
<br />
........<br />
<br />
At Max, Adobe said the standalone version of its Creative Suite, which bundles together 16 programs, including Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, Dreamweaver and Premiere, would be frozen at version 6. Bug fixes would be made available for this version but new features and enhancements would not. Currently, the standalone version of Creative Suite 6 costs about £1,800 from Adobe.<br />
<br />
Those who want to keep up with upgrades and changes to Creative Suite would have to take out a subscription to Adobe's Creative Cloud - a web-based system through which customers can manage what they do with the different tools. In return, customers get access to the software as well as an online storage system and project management tools.<br />
<br />
........<br />
<br />
&quot;Customers have to come to terms with the end of perpetually licensed software,&quot; IDC analyst Al Hilwa told the Associated Press.<br />
<br />
The move to a subscription model is the culmination of a long experiment by Adobe to see if customers would pay monthly for access. Adobe said it now had 500,000 subscribers for Creative Cloud after running a pilot programme for a year.
			
		<hr />
	</div>
</div>I know that Photoshop, as well as some other Adobe products, are widely used among the members of this forum, not least in the production of custom content for Arma, so I'm interested to hear what you think of this development.  It would also be good to hear from those who use it proffessionally, what does this mean for you and your business?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Previous Arizona State Representative Giffords and her husband, previous astronaut Mark Kelly, have launched a gun control initiative that seeks to accept the powerful gun lobby and challenge today's gun laws, which the couple believes are too lenient. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Gun control initiative announced</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
 While interviewing with ABC, Giffords and Kelly made the statement. It has been two years since Giffords was in Tucson and was shot in the head.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Giffords is really upset with all the gun violence and is sick of it as a gun owner herself. Since her shooting, the country has dealt with other shooting incidents, including the large one in CT and the other large one in Colorado.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The effort hopes to encourage responsible hand gun ownership and more solutions to fixing the issue. Americans for Responsible Solutions, the name of it, encourages elected officials to stand up and make a change.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>More challenging background checks</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
There will be mental health checks for buyers and background checks for private gun sales if the group gets its way. It will get money to lobby for regulation to make it harder to get guns.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The National Rifle Association will fight against the effort very hard and has a lot of cash to battle with. The NRA spent 11 times more on lobbying than all gun control lobby groups combined last year, according to Reuters.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In a piece in USA Today, Giffords wrote, &quot;Until now, the gun lobby's political contributions, advertising and lobbying have dwarfed spending from anti-gun violence groups.&quot;<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Attempting to decrease violence</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
After 20 children as young as six years old and six adult teachers were murdered at the school shooting in Newton, the nation may begin needing a ban on guns.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
To be able to reduce gun violence, President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are looking into ways to reduce gun violence. This may be as simple as better background checks for gun purchases and a national database of gun sales or as tough as a ban on all assault weapons and high capacity clips.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Cost of guns growing</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
On the other hand, consumer gun sales have soared since the country's renewed interest in gun control, states the FBI.</div>
