# I got it today
I have ran it, looked at it, then closed it down.

I have no idea what Im doing, spending the weekend on youtube tutorials and google methinks. Are skills any interchangeable with photoshop? It looked so different.

# I once tried a .gif in PS
Once.

Tried.

And therin is my animation experience, in anything. I will just practice putting a funny hat on a mate in a five second video clip. Is that an OK project to start with?

# Yay!
As you can see, my skills lack some finesse. But it took lots of using Premiere Pro before I (accidentally) discovered what the mini stopwatches did. As someone else said - Yt tutorials are pretty good.

# oh no, AE defo better for /board type stuff
I was just showing off that I'd once used Premiere Pro. It does have many features that match those in AE.

# I haven't used photoshop in ages
But I have done animations in flash which works well and I use the Gimp for most things.

Does photoshop now do more things?

Everything is slightly different from everything else in the suite.
