Five Ways to get Photoshop for Free

There are several methods for obtaining a free Photoshop download, depending upon your needs.

1. The easiest way to get PhotoShop for free is by using a BitTorrent tracker like uTorrent to download a Photoshop file. You can download uTorrent here. The following video will show you step by step how to use uTorrent to download Photoshop, or any other software you want, for free:

There are several links to active Photoshop files or “torrents” further down on this page.

2. The second easiest way (and completely legal) to get Photoshop for free is to buy a hard copy of Photoshop from a store, install the software on your computer, and then return the software to the store because the product is “damaged” or “doesn’t work properly”. Due to copyright issues, the store can’t refund your money, but they can give you an unopened copy of Photoshop that you can sell on eBay or Amazon. Again, you can use this method to LEGALLY obtain any software for free!

3. If you just need Photoshop for a quick project, you can download a free 30 day trial directly from Adobe.  Click here to download the free Photoshop 30 day trial.

4. If you are not required to use Photoshop exclusively, GIMP is a great open sourced alternative to Photoshop. Also, if you just need to open a Photoshop file (.psd), GIMP will do this for free as well. Click here to download GIMP Click here to download GIMP.

GIMP looks and feels exactly like Photoshop.

5. The fifth and final way to get Adobe Photoshop for free is by placing a classified ad on Craigslist saying that you want to “trade” files. The people who respond to your ad will either trade with you, or point you in the direction of someone who will send you Photoshop for free.

Now you have five news ways to get Adobe Photoshop for free! My advice would be to download Photoshop from BitTorrent if you have no problem with pirating software (plus you can get it instantly). If you think your conscience might bother you, then I would use method number two – buy it, install it, return it, get a fresh unopened copy, then sell it!

Good luck!
