Are you willing to shell out the money for a monthly subscription? Is this hobby going to pay itself back? Can you see yourself using it for years down the road? Ask yourself those questions first.

I quote this to reiterate it. You've got potential, but you're not an expert yet. Are you committed to getting better and finding a way to profit off of it? Do you enjoy it enough to suffer the expense?

Monthly subscription?

I have Photoshop CS4 and it was a one-off payment.

Creative Suite is no more. Creative Cloud is your only option and it is a monthly subscription. Unless you go and buy a box version of CS6. But that hands out unneeded software and extra cash if he only wants Photoshop at this point.[DOUBLEPOST=1373925242,1373925119][/DOUBLEPOST]

On the second point, can you create a unique style that makes your work stand out from others to get business from people who need design work? Can you continue to innovate and not just use one style that you learn? Can you work on bigger projects? Expanding from thumbnails to banners or web and mobile design?

Get Photoshop CS2. It's free from Adobe's website at CS2 downloads.
