Have any new emails gone out? Still waiting here...

Sjo

I'm also still waiting (reached the goal mid September). Just received my subscription renewal announcement. Would be nice if I would receive a code before my subscription is renewed.

Just received my code. Nice!

I met the qualifications before the email went out, but haven't received anything. Does it matter if my current cc subscription is under a different account than my stock account?

No, that doesn't matter. The code will be emailed to the address associated with your Adobe Stock Contributor account.

i think i qualify but not code, just email from adobe stock who advertise their reward.



I also received several emails from adobe but still no code and no 'emails in spam folder...

Search your inbox for CompEXT, which is the sender of the code.

Received an email with the offer yesterday so downloaded CC.

Tried it and hate the current version of Photoshop, Lightroom is no different apart from a few teaks.

It also loads so many processes in the background it just slows the whole system up.

Certainly not worth the $120 per year they expect you to pay.

I reckon I'll delete the whole lot and revert to my previous set up/stand alone software

Hay Mat don't know if you know the answer to this but I received the video cc package with all apps (including photoshop) and also the photoshop package for the photography package as I'm both a video and photo contributor.
So my question is as I now have 2 photoshop cc packages can I give one to a family or friend. Is my name on it somewhere in the adobe system where they will need to change it?

Thanks

Hello I'm not Mat  ;) but the original announcement said or give to a friend. I know someone who got the code, gave it to a friend, and he installed it, worked fine, no ID association. Since that's a real life situation, I'm proposing that you can give the code away and there's nothing that says who it was originally sent to. Good for one person, one Adobe account, up to two personal computers, just like the rest of Adobe software.

And to answer a question I asked before and no one seemed to know. If you register today it's good for one year to date, to the day, not by month or week or anything else.

This is just data mining on a grand scale.  Even if you tell CC not to load at start up Adobe still have processes running in the background which is not on!

I had to go thru Windows services and switch all the hidden processes to manual start instead of automatic start.

It's slow and and memory gobbler.

It's being deleted today

Thanx Mat,
Just one question, I'm already subscriber for the photoshop & lightroom, how is the new code (when/if I get one) gonna work?

While I am trying to upload enough photos to get this offer, sometimes I am becoming really angry. My earnings started falling when Adobe Stock showed up and never recovered. Now I am earning one third from my 2015 earnings.

So I feel like someone robbed me first and now is graciously willing to give me one thing back, but only if I earn it. Thanks, Adobe.

I have a different experience. I'm experiencing growing sales. I guess it depends on your niche and the demand for your work. So it's not fair to solely blame Adobe for your loss of earnings, let alone compare it to a robbery.

Yep, I am the one to blame. I am aware it is hard to understand somebody when it doesn't hurt you.

I agree that robbery might sound harsh, it was only thing that came to my mind for comparison.

Did you do this? I'm sure that Mat will be able to check for you.

To qualify you need to one of the first 20,000 contributors to have 300 files approved or have $500 in earnings since January 1, 2018 with a 50% or higher approval ratio to receive a CCP member.

I just re-posted the easy part in case someone is new or hasn't noticed before.  :)

The CCP software is exactly one year, to the date you register, free cloud storage lasts longer. It includes PS, LR, LR Classic, Bridge CC, a trial of Premier Rush video - (three free trial), Portfolio, Spark, Behance (I have no clue what they are or do) and XD CC "Adobe Experience Design CC, or Adobe XD, is a lightweight vector graphics editor and prototyping tool"

Thanks Adobe
