Hey guys! Whoa... it has been quite a while since I have been back to Multimadrid... but I can definitely say that I have missed it! I guess I don�t have the same internet cruising time that I used to in the states.

Anyway, the question at hand is that of an internet cafe that has the program Photoshop. I have to design advertisement posters for an upcoming Complutense theater production that my class is putting on and I NEED Photoshop (no other generic paint programs will do!). Does anyone know of an internet cafe that has it? Preferibly one without extreme prices, cause I will be on there for a while. Thanks guys.

-Brian

Brian,

I found this by searching Google.com for "photoshop" and "madrid"

International Photoshop Meetup Day

http://photoshop.meetup.com/?localeId=879

Looks like they meet once a month. I'll bet if you contact someone, you will be able to find what you need.

Hey Brian, good to hear from ya buddy Big Grin

I am with you here, Photoshop or bust!!! Cool

I know that the cybercaf� that sponsors my site...

� Cyberinterpublic.
C/. Carrera de San Jer�nimo #18, 1st floor.
Tel./FAX: +34 91 523 1550

... has Photophot in 2 of their many PCs so if you go there you should go in and reserve a session first as ya never know when somebody will be on those 2 machines.

If you go in the afternoon (after 3:00pm, tell "Vicente" them jeremy from multimadrid sent ya (and he will give ya a kick in the ass :jeje: ).

You see, any internet place that is legal and worried about getting their software revised (never happened as far as I know Roll Eyes ) will only have Photoshop in one or two machines due to licensing limitations and such.

I used to work at a place in "Plaza Puerta de Moros" (near La Latina) called "Call Home" that had Photoshop in some PCs as well but it is a very expensive place (3�/hour compared to the going rate of 1.20�).

One thing you will need to keep in mind is saving the poster you are going to design. This could be a major problem since even a flyer as small as A4 (normal sheet of paper) with any decent sized design and saved as a quality .TIFF for printing will not fit on a 1.4MB diskette.

So, unless you are planning to design and print the posters/flyers right at the internet place itself, you would have to find one that has Photoshop AND lets you save to CD, a tall order indeed!!! Eeker

And if you are planning to design and print the posters/flyers right at the internet place, you will need to find one with a color, quality printer (many just have laser printers for B&W).

Saludos & suerte,
jer...

p.d. hey Paul, thanks for the Photoshop group link, may go investigate one day. I had no idea.
