Question Adobe Suite

Hi Teresa,

Just a quick question concerning the Adobe Suite. I didn't think about the fact that it is now only available as a monthly subscription (which is so frustrating!), so I was wondering if you think FCG will need the full suite (52.99$ US/month) or only Photoshop and Illustrator (20.99$ US/month each). 
Also, since we cannot purchase it and will have to pay on a monthly basis, do you think the OAC grant should include the amount for the subscription for a full year, or longer if possible?

Let me know what you think.
Thanks!

Hi Camille,

Oh yeah! In this case, we could just leave Adobe out of the grant because that seems more like part of a request for an increase in operating funding, not project funding.

If we do want to leave it in the grant, we would need the full suite because we need to use Photoshop and InDesign on a regular basis, but *I think* only Photoshop and Illustrator are available as a bundle? I also wonder if there is a non-profit price available because, for instance, I have the suite but at a student rate. Or is that already a non-profit price? 

My best,

Hi Teresa,

I double-checked and I haven't seen anything about non-profit rates, the only discounts seem to be for students/teachers. 
I think you are right and it does fit better under operating funding since it will be a regular monthly expense. I'll leave it out for now.

Thanks!
