Giant heavy box, a good value,
By
This review is from: Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Production Premium [Mac] [OLD VERSION] (DVD-ROM)
CS3 finally brings together most of the tools that video and Web nerds need. While I still don't care for Premier Pro compared to Final Cut Pro, this suite provides a consistent user experience from one product to the next. Flash is more approachable than ever, and if you've used After Effects before, you'll find it especially inviting.

Really like the new CS3,
By
This review is from: Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Production Premium [Mac] [OLD VERSION] (DVD-ROM)
I mostly use Photoshop and illustrator in my work but I got this package so I could play with after effects and all the other software included. I like how integrated all the programs together so they work more fluidly. It makes it easier to move from one program to the other.
Photoshop: I really like all the new features they have in Photoshop CS3 like this stitch plug in, it really makes it easy to make wide landscape pictures. The new smart filters are really great because you don't destroy the underlying photo. The new interfaces also a big plus everything is still at your fingertips but it's more off to the side and not cluttering up your screen. Illustrator: I hadn't played a whole lot in illustrator yet but I have tried the live trace feature and I really like it, it makes it easy to get something from real world into the computer as vectors and then you can use the new live paint and color in your work.

If you plan to do DVD Authoring/Mastering with slide shows DON'T Use Encore,
By
This review is from: Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Production Premium [Mac] [OLD VERSION] (DVD-ROM)
The Adobe Production suite has MAJOR PROBLEMS! Beware before purchasing it. This pertains to the Macintosh version. Premiere will NOT allow you to use (import) or output any Windows-based media (no AVI, no WMV, etc.). So if you have a digital camera that renders AVI videos they cannot be used or edited directly within Premiere on the Mac platform. (This happens even with the full version of Flip4Mac WMV Studio Pro installed.)
But it gets worse, Encore (the DVD Authoring application) will not create DVD's that contain "Slideshows". The program has had a persistent (3 years running) problem, that Adobe refuses to address, when Building a final DVD (either DVD disc or DVD disc image). Their technical support acknowledges the problem with the slideshow functionality but Adobe has not fixed the problems. They blame it on a variety of issues (non-Adobe generated images, image durations, chapter markers, etc.) but do not act to correct this SERIOUS FLAW in the application. So if you are buying the production suite to do DVD production or Authoring you are highly advised to seek another solution.
