| I want to go big I've had an idea for the past while to really step up my Graphics forum. Most of us know that there is no force in graphics and imaging greater then Adobe, and photoshop. So, why not work on getting affiliated with Adobe? I might be shooting for the moon here, but that should be my eventual goal, correct? I'm just not so sure how to go about it. I've checked their site, and they do offer an associate program, but it only makes you a licensed online vendor of Photoshop (which may be a good step as well) I'm just not sure how to formulate my plan of attack  I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions   | ||||

| What exactly are you looking to accomplish by trying to affiliate with Adobe? I know most likely you are looking for additional traffic to your community/website, however, I believe you will find it rather hard to accomplish this through such a large name. I won't say it is impossible, however, I do not think it will be easy, given they really don't advertise on their website and the only true credits given are to those that actually work on the applications they sell/provide. Maybe a detailed description of you plan of attack may be best. | ||||

I think I may have explained my half assed idea a little to ambitiously. I'm not shooting to be the official Adobe community, but to be a sort of "Adobe approved" kind of site. With further research on their site and their policies though, it seems Adobe doesn't bother doing this sort of thing with anyone. I can understand, I mean, there's so many graphics sites out there. I think my best bet would be to first enroll into their affiliate program, and see if anything develops from there - http://www.adobe.com/buy/affiliates/ I had an idea the other day to add a store to our site, where users can purchase photoshop legally through adobe (which is what the affiliate program allows) Then we can also use that part of the site for eventual merch. I'm liking this plan a lot more. It's much more achievable | |||||
