I would appreciate having the Adobe CS 5.5 Master Collection so much…it would be a DREAM COME TRUE!!!
this would be great!
Man I love Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection. Im a layout designer and Photographer for a college newspaper and we use all the adobe programs and I love them. I hope I win. I need it for my company Im about to start.
oh Photoshop let me count the way now what is higher the infinity.
Very exciting! Thanks for the opportunity to possibly win, cause these programs are EXPENSIVE!
Clowns love CheapScholar :0) Of course it may also be because I am a second year Graphic Design student…year, that too :0)
I would love to win CS5.5 and ditch my trial version to really startup my own business after finishing school.
I could sure use a copy of that to help get me out of the financial hole I’m in. I hope I can win.
I’m currently running off CS3 and the new version looks so much better. Have tried the trails on a few. It would be great to win! Especially cause I’m a poor college senior! 🙂
Whoa! Talk about a sweet deal! Count me in to this one please!
This would be a wonderful gift, and a wonderful tool to help me in my art career. Good luck to all, of course.
It would be great to have the entire Adobe CS5.5 Suite for my first year of college next year. I currently own only the part of the CS5 suite for video, and this would be great so that I could have the software for web design too.
I would love the opportunity to utilize Adobe CS 5.5 on my design work at school next year, I’m still working with CS3 which I picked up my freshman year of college.
I’m still working with CS2! It is time for an upgrade!!
this would b really helpful as I graduate soon
I saw the Adobe evangelist presentation and it would be an honor to have it.

I wanna win…
I wish you good luck
Thanks for the opportunity to win a great gift. It certainly would be a nice gift for my daughter who is entering college this year!!
Photography is a real wonder of 20th century. They can remember the most interesting and the happiest time of our lives. But in the 21st century, Photography is not only a simple hobby,but it is also a great art. This great Adobe suite is really outstanding, and this great suite is not only photography suite. The programs in this suite are of great value. I can’t believe my eyes. Such a great offer. thank you.
Do all five steps.
I am a web developer who loves to ride the wave of latest web technologies. The new enhancements CS 5.5 offers, will ease my transition into these great new tools and frameworks, such as support for jQuery Mobile and Flash Builder 4.5!!! Developer tools such as Dreamweaver CS 5.5 would be an awesome college companion for a Computer Science major! When I can, I also enjoy working with, editing, and sometimes sharing family videos. So the inclusion of tools such as After Effects and Premiere would be awesome! Some volunteer work I have done involved me creating a brochure for an organization. It would be great to have the latest and greatest tools, such as InDesign and Firework CS 5.5, to make future changes to it where programs such as Microsoft Word can not. Thank you for this opportunity!
I hope I win as I am trying to get into digital and creative media!
Thanks so much for the opportunity. Finished all the steps.
Wow, this would be amazing to win!!! I really want to see what Flash Catalyst 5.5 is all about and also the latest versions of PS and Illustrator. As a designer, winning this would save me sooo much money!

Really hoping that I can win this! I would really like this because I haven’t had a chance to explore my artistic side and this would be so great.
It’d be nice to win this. My trial for cs5.5 ends in 5 days and then i’ll have to go back to cs3/cs4. cs5.5 has so many awesome features! A lot more fun than cs4.
Nice competition ^.^
Thanks for the chance to win!
I am a photographer so I use Photoshop 24/7! I would LOVE to win the adobe license. My laptop that had it is no longer working anymore, so winning this would be very, very helpful!!!
This is a great product and it would be wonderful to get it for FREE!
Digital art student who really really needs CS5!!! 🙂
This a wonderful opportunity. Interactive InDesign has been my focus for months. I enjoy the option to update for better interactivity.
Winning this would just be amazing

Awesome giveaway *w*
Adobe has some really good software!
Hi! I am a desperate (and willing to do anything) to get Adobe’s Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection for free because being an art student is an expensive responsibility. I am nearing graduation, but loans are piling up and I still don’t have every program to become the successful graphic designer I am destined to be. How will the Master Collection help me? …well, there are so many projects it could help me with!
In the near future, I want to establish a non-profit clothing line to benefit global issues like poverty, equal rights, etc. because I feel that today’s world needs more positivity.
Having the latest version of Illustrator would help me create illustrations for t-shirts. Photoshop would help me edit photos of the shirts/models. Dreamweaver would help me create the website. InDesign would help me make clothing catalogs. After Effects would help me create a promotional video regarding my up-and-coming clothing line.
These programs would also help me create a stronger portfolio, that way I could actually support myself while making the world a better place with my clothing line!!!
Please choose me…I’m on my knees, begging… well not literally lol :]
Check out my portfolio… http://www.zurahshaker.com thanks again!
I want one! That would be simply awesome!
@rbmelanie

Brilliant software, intuitive UI, the design world is such a better place with Adobe Creative Suite. It’s come a long way in such a short space of time 🙂
Sounds like an awesome gift, I am totally in!
I would love to win this!
I would LOVE to win this software! I am planning to take some design classes and it would be very useful! 🙂
Great, limitless programs! Adobe CS 5.5 MC needs to go to Poland!!! ;D
I would love to win, but I wish every one else the best luck too!
photoshoppppp!
Enter me! Good luck all!
Adobe’s the best! I feel like one of the best designers with these programs!
Wish everyone the best of luck. I hope I win, but it’s all a game of chance.
Please let me win this contest for CS5.5! I’m a senior graphic design student and I can’t get away with using my school’s Adobe Suite anymore as I have to work on my thesis and at an internship over the summer.
I am a high school senior, graduating on the 18th of June, and I will be attending Seattle Pacific University this fall. I will be majoring in Visual Communications and I am trying to figure out how to pay for college, let alone all of the extra expenses. I recently upgraded my computer and since then I have honestly been running off of a trial of CS5.5. I love design, and I have taught myself a substantial amount. This year, for my senior project, I took my knowledge and started up my own business with it. If I were to win this contest, I would finally be able to step up my business (and redesign, as I have learned so much since it was even published), be prepared for school this fall, and it would help me to pursue my future career in design.
This would be awesome to win this… jQuery Mobile support in Dreamweaver!!!!!
Thanks guys for this opportunity!!
I’m a multimedia student & I would love to try out the Flash CS5.5!
Would be just great to own the collection!!
Good luck to me! 😉
I can’t find my CS5 cd for my adobe programs. It would mean a lot to me to get this version. I don’t have money to afford another cd for these programs. I desperately need them for school since I am a graphic design student. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!
I want in on this one. I am a budding artist and this could come in handy 😀
i want one please! 🙂 im a graphic/web designer, just got out of college
Enter me, I would love to win it
Here’s hoping!

Great software. would love to have this complete package.
I go to SacState in California. I am so.very.thankful for the discounts that Adobe makes available to students. I wouldn’t be able to afford the wonderful products that I use without those generous discounts. I started working with local photographers editing portrait sessions and weddings. It has been a great opportunity for me. After I graduate I plan to turn it into a full time business. Thank you, Adobe for making that possible! 🙂
