I have a jacked up version of Photoshop which I may have not at all needed
but it came with the suite I needed which is adobe creative suite 4 design
premium.
It's called Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended.

" addition of capabilities for scientific imaging, 3D, and high end film and
video users. The successor to Photoshop CS3, Photoshop CS4 is the first
64-bit Photoshop on consumer computers (only on Windows ? the OS X version
is still 32-bit only.)"

So it's all different.

There was a period of time where I felt like I had a real grip on the meat
of Photoshop. I could have taught it.
Now no. its left me in the dust.
I may go back to school. As a student.
