Adobe Photoshop CS6

Adobe Photoshop is the industry standard for photo work and graphics. Adobe Photoshop CS6 is still in Pre-Release, its very usable, and its still free!

 

“Photoshop CS6 Review: the Best Version In Recent Memory
I’m in love with Photoshop CS6 after working with the beta during the past few weeks. For the first time in many years, this one is a must-have update.

It will save a lot of time for professionals on the day-to-day, thanks to new and updated features, a new graphic engine, and a new—beautiful—streamlined interface.

Best of all: you can get it yourself, right now. For free.”

“OldChromeRemover is a simple console program that checks for any redundant versions of Google Chrome left behind by the updater. It will quickly remove all except the newest version when prompted by the user, allowing you to free up valuable disk space. OldChromeRemover also supports Chrome ‘Canary’ builds.”
