If its just CS3 that is not $1799, the upgrade is $200. and the full version $650 from Adobe but can be found cheaper if your a student.

If you do not own a previous version and this is the upgrade it will do you no good.

Shape shifter for the clear dock, just google shapeshifter clear dock. The camo hard drive is from interfacelift. And I also found these to get rid of the ugly cs3 icons.......

Well, when it finished installing, and I saw my new toys in my apps, it almost felt as good as finishing what I think you're talking about.:Evil:

Sounds more like the guy who sold it scored $220 bucks from you for nothing. The photo of the disc you posted isn't a legitimate Adobe disc.
How come my disc, in which I ordered through Adobe, is gray?
Exactly. The discs should look like the ones seen at the link here: http://theundersigned.net/category/indesign/

Exactly what I was thinking DB... Adobe wouldn't use what looks to be a paper adhesive label on their disks and just label it "Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium" with no other verbage whatsoever. Not to mention no trademark/copyright logo over Adobe, creative Suite, or Design Premium...

$220 ... Doh!!!!

Yep, that's definitely a bootleg. Some guy just made a few hundred bucks for the cost of a DVD. That hurts, man. Were you able to successfully register it?

Who cares? I have all the programs, and I just downloaded all the current updates. Better than paying $1800.00. I didn't know it was bootleg, just thought it was a good deal.

Adobe cares. You could get in trouble.

Get your money back.... Tell the guy, you now know it's an ILLEGAL copy and you want your money back.... I'm sure he'd rather give it back than risk/fear you turning him in.

Adobe will know that it is an illegal copy because the program will contact adobe (in the background without your knowledge) and show the version and registration number. The guy you got it from uses the same reg. number on every copy he scams people with, Adobe will know. Adobe is a big company and I'm sure actively fights against piracy.

Demand your money back, and consider it a lesson learned.

Are you sure you didn't buy the upgrade? It looks to me like you have CS2 and CS...
