Calendars: Can I design one using photoshop?

I would like to try and design a picture calendar for a dog breed group I belong to. I am not a professional, but I'd like to learn how to design a calendar for fun. I have Photoshop 6, which I play around with a lot. Can I use this to design the calendar? or is there another software which you all feel would be better suited? (I have an old version of pagemaker, but I'm not as familiar with it. I also have MS Publisher, but I thought photoshop would create a nicer looking calendar end result?). I'd like to get the calendars printed on glossy paper, etc etc.
Btw, can In Design be used to create a calendar, or is photoshop better (I don't have ID, but I'd like an excuse to buy it. lol)
Thanks,
P

Thanks for your replies. I checked those links out for the online software, but that's not quite what I wanted. I will check the indesignsecrets link now. :)
QUESTION:
I found this site.
http://www.candidphotostore.com/20phcate3.html
THIS is the exact style photo calendar template I want and the right size (12x24), plus it seems I can use it with my Photoshop (I hope? I have Photoshop 6), but...I've never heard of this company, and the contact info is strange (a bogus tel no 555-555-1212 ??? hidden in the About Us menu).
Anyone ever purchase this site's photoshop calendar template? It's the layout and size I reeeeeeeeeeeallllly want. lol
Thanks!

  • How can I afford to use Photoshop when it costs $600/year?

    I am a hobby photographer.  I have used Photoshop 4, 5, and 6.  Using Photoshop has generally cost me about $100/year or $200/2 years.
    I, as is true of many hobby photographers, have enjoyed using PS to edit my images. I use only PS from the Creative Suite.  I use functions  that only PS provides, such as, layer masks.   It seems I must stick with Photoshop 13 (CS5) and hope that there will be addons to keep it current.  Any other suggestions?

    You may have missed some details.
    It's $9.95/month for the first year, $19.95/month after.  I read that as $120/year then $240/year.  I'm not sure where you got your $600 figure.  This is for a single product:  Photoshop CC with what used to be Extended functionality (there are no longer two editions, you always get 3D).
    Yes, I realize this is still a price increase over what Photoshop standard used to cost if you kept up to date with upgrades to all the releases.  It's about a wash with the Photoshop Extended upgrade pricing.
    There is of course Photoshop Elements for those who don't want or need the full functionality of Photoshop.  Much as that may seem insulting, Elements is actually not a half bad editor.  Only thing is you can't do layers AND high bit depth editing at the same time - but that's not a kiss of death.  It's quite possible to create very nice images using 8 bit editing; you just have to think about what you're doing a bit.
    It's probably fantasy to think that 3rd party developers are going to be able to "keep Photoshop CS6 current" through plug-ins, scripts, actions, etc.  Yes, you might find someone may create a deconvolution tool or something to rival some of the added plug-ins, but nobody's going to be able to make Camera Raw a filter, or add features to the 3D subsystem, or make UI improvements.

  • Can Expression Design be used to create whole website pages???

    I have been looking at Design and dont know how to use it, and the help is of no help. Can Design be used to build whole web pages???
    Thanks, in advance!

    No.
    Expression Design is a vector art graphics design program.
    Expression Web is a professional-level web site design tool.

  • Can Output Designer be used without installing Output server?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to use Output Designer independently of Output Server? I cannot find any detailed documentation on the Adobe site and it is not possible to download a trial version.
    I want to create a form that we ensure users entered mandatory fields and that has dynamic sub forms. I do not need to do any further electronic processing of the data in the form once it has been filled in.

    Hi,
    Yes you can use the output designer without the output server.
    We are using the Jfmerge to merge the text file( a temp file to manupulate the data) and .DAT files.the output will be a PCL file. This PCL file you cn send to printer or you can convert it to any other format.We are converting it to PDF file using PCL2PDF file.

  • Can I transfer and use photoshop CS5 program from my windows 7 laptop onto new windows 8 HP allinone

    I no longer use the full capacity of my CS5 program, being now retired. however I am soon getting a new All in one PC with touchscreen and operating on Windows 8.
    I am wondering whether I can transfer my CS5 program onto this new machine, or whether to go for the simpler elements 11 program.
    any ideas most welcome

    Hi,
    If you are going to use CS5 program on your New Machine (Win 8) then you need to Deactivate the License from the Old machine.

  • Hi guys, Im a Print graphic designer ( I use Photoshop, Indesign & Illustrator ) I would like to learn more skills and switch from '' print to web design ''.

    While doing some research, i came across some nice Adobe softwares like Adobe Muse and Adobe Edge Animate.
    Which one would you recommend me to learn and master?  I have also been looking at Adobe After Effects and it seems to be very nice too. I know it's mainly for those in the cinematographic industry but I think it might be useful for me to have some kinda knowledge about it, especially for making some Intros and animations for logos. What do you think about it?
    Which one would you recommend me to learn and master? also do you think After Effects would be nice for me?
    I have been watching some tutorials on Youtube and Lynda.com about Adobe Muse and Adobe Edge. They are pretty straight forward and I find myself comfortable with it.
    But I would like to know the difference between Muse and Animate Edge please. They both seem to be some kinda softwares for those who want to design without coding, right? But apart from that, how do they differentiate from each other.
    Hope to get some nice tips, advices from you guys.
    Cheers,
    Yannick

    After Effects is excellent for doing motion graphics. However, it's a pretty powerful program - thus hard to jump into and learn. Start here if you want to learn it: Getting started with After Effects
    I would suggest you focus more on the software that does what you want to do (web) and leave After Effects for doing video work.

  • Can my design colleagues use Bridge to connect to my Creative Cloud storage?

    I work with other designers who consume my work, Illustrator and Photoshop files, into InDesign. Is it possible for them to add my Creative Cloud storage to their Bridge so that I can publish and they can link to my work directly from there?

    Great idea but this is not currently possible. Improved sharing and collaboration features are on the roadmap.

  • I live in Turkey and want to subscribe to Photoshop. I just need to know that if paying in Turkish Lira I can be sure to use Photoshop with English words not Turkish.

    As a new potential customer I was hoping to be able to eMail someone at Adobe to receive personal service rather than have to use a forum but their website took me on a perpetual loop and got me nowhere so I assume that this is the only way to get an answer to my question. Not great customer service from Adobe.

  • Can I say one thing? The design of 3D is too confused!!! I know the drawing 3D and this new tools in Photoshop aren't simple, it's too difficult to understand

    Can I say one thing? The design of 3D is too confused!!! I know the drawing 3D and this new tools in Photoshop aren't simple, it's too difficult to understand

    Photoshop's GUI for the 3d functionality has always been a bit of a bust. And slow, cumbersome, hard to control. Rendering quality remains a major headache (and slow as a snail crawling through mud). Texturing is a hassle, and the 3d viewport one of the worst implementations I have ever encountered.
    Which is why I have always avoided it, and I prefer 3d applications such as Blender, Cinema4d, Max, Lightwave, and so on, for quality work. The 3d functionality in Photoshop is adequate for relatively simple 3d typography, and simple shapes. But even for that type of work I avoided Photoshop.
