Now you don't have to own a previous version of Photoshop to qualify if you sign up for a 1 yr commitment by Dec 2. This was posted on dpreview.com today. It is the plan I am currently on.

When Adobe announced a version of Creative Cloud for photographers in September, there was a catch -- you had to already own Photoshop CS3 or later to qualify for the special pricing. Now Adobe is lifting that requirement for a limited time. Through December 2, 2013, the $9.99 (£8.78/€12,29) per month subscription is available to everyone.
Signing up gives you access to:

  • Photoshop CC
  • Bridge CC
  • Lightroom 5
  • 20GB of cloud storage
  • Behance ProSite


This time the catch is a one-year commitment that is billed monthly.
