- (+235) Stop creating new features and make your software fast, stable and straightforward. #113
- (+230) please cut out the DRM crap, and price your products reasonably. #70
- (+228) For the next version, please could you stop adding features and work on performance and stability instead? #381
- (+223) Skip CS4. CS3 does everything we need for now, and no one is going to catch up with you, not even Quark. Instead of forcing another version down our throats bloated with unnecessary features, you could instead take some time to make a new version that focuses on stability and performance. #161
- (+219) The world is global now. Please fix your pricing. Thank you. #452
- (+204) Please read this website. #398
- (+204) remember when your applications were lightning fast? I miss that. #419
- (+199) Please read and consider everything written on this website. It's for your own good #110
- (+198) You know what would be nice? Finally standardizing the interface between ALL of your applications. #19
- (+196) please don't copy microsoft's naming and bundling conventions. I want CS3 not CS3 pro, CS3 pro advantage, CS3 pro plus, CS3 no frills, CS3 pro max, CS3 pro extra pro max... #366
- (+195) Stop adding features. Focus on stability, speed and removing bloat. #475
- (+195) Quality is better than quantity. #891
- (+194) can Photoshop and Illustrator (and InDesign, etc.) please just work the same? Same guides, same text tools, etc. #36
- (+190) Please stop raising your upgrade prices. I'm sick of paying for your merger. #487
- (+189) Please lower your prices #933
- (+186) Your updaters suck. And Acrobat's bloatware. #264
- (+186) give the same keyboard shortcuts to the same functions no matter what app. if you say you're going for consistency, then be fucking consistent. #294
- (+184) please, please, please make all the shortcuts in all your applications the same. is it really that hard? #93
- (+180) charge less. #72
- (+180) Please lower international pricing - why do we have to pay more than 100% more than US customers. Even online! #956
- (+179) Lower your pricing already. #570
- (+179) Please stop keeping the PC and Mac versions separate. One combined version, one license. How hard is that? #950
- (+178) Why the hell do I need both "Adobe Help Viewer 1.0" and "Adobe Help Viewer 1.1"? This is the laziest excuse for terrible programming imaginable. At least make an effort to hide your incompetence. #637
- (+177) Please remember that some of us are starving artists and don't have hundreds of dollars to shell out on your products every year! Try to make it reasonable to stay on top of technology!! #304
