CS2 is all you need. It's tried and tested, you never know what CS3 will be like. The higher end PS editions are really overkill for what most people do.

Default Creative Suite 3

Photoshop Creative Suite 3 definitely, it is the best photo editing software out.

I use CS2 myself, but i know from first hand use that CS3 is better, it has more filters and is more flexible, and works generally better.

If price doesn't matter then go for Creative Suite 3, it is the best!

Yea, i think CS3 made itself more compatiable with lower computer models, but CS2 wasnt taht flexible, just tried it on a 512mb ram pc and was givin me lots of trouble

Nice on the upgrade, you can never have enoguh RAM

I use 7 but thats cos I've used it for years, all of the new versions are over-bloated "additions" to 7 which was the first REALLY good version of PS. There is NOTHING you can do in CS2 that i cant do in 7 (and no, that was not a request to challenge...)

Dont get me wrong, I have 7, CS2 and CS3 installed, i hate CS3 beyond belief, CS2 is ok, but i spend 90% of all photoshopping time in 7...

I must disagree, photoshop 7 was a very good version but CS3 is the ultimate photo editing tool!
