As a teacher- this would be amazing!!
I would love to go to this conference for so many reasons. I’m graduating this semester, getting a AA in graphic design after five years. It would a great present to go. It will help me decide the direction I want to go in, and it will help me on the path of my career. I would like to bring back new ideas to the school before I graduate.
wow, i made the trip ‘cross the pond for adobe max a couple years ago … it was an absolutely brilliant experience and i’d be gobsmacked to be able to go again …
getting the creative cloud too would be a fabulous bonus … cheers !
well.. I’ve never experienced Adobe MAX.. didn’t even know it existed until now :D I like and appreciate new experiences, so I think this would be right up my alley!
Adobe MAX free – woo-hoo! Please count me in!
Creative minds come together to show and tell, that’s a place I want to be!!!! I have a passion for the Adobe products – it’s the name, the brand, that I can’t wait to experience for the first time.
FUN
I plan to see what new creative tools are available as well as what’s coming out soon.
Possibilities! Networking! Potential! Learning!
I would absolutely love to go to this conference. I have graduated from a 4-year university with a BFA in design. I have gained great work experience since then, but I am finding it difficult to gain greater technical skills as a working graduate. It is really important to me that I keep on learning, even after school, and I think the Adobe Max conference is perfect for enhancing my technical skills so I can express my creativity better each day!
I was at Max 2010 and had an absolute blast. A lot has changed since then and, as a developer, would love to go to get a feel for the future.
I have never been to an Adobe event and would love to learn more and network with like minded colleagues!
Thank you!
as a teacher of a junior high, this must be amazing.
as a photographer and photo curator who lives in a very small city which has no gallery, this must be more than just fun.
as a graduate of Communication Design, this must be a huge source of information.
above all, i’ve just figured out recently that i’ve got it all wrong about the creative cloud system. shame on me. :(
I would network with the creative minds of the industry, try to meet Adobe engineers to pay them the drink they deserve for all the tools they created for us!
This would be my first time at Adobe MAX and second time in US! It would be amazing!
WOW–this sounds exciting. Never been to one and it would be awesome. Thanks for the chance to win this :)
I want to learn all that I can about the use and capabilities of Adobe Software. And where else could you do this but at the MAX CREATIVITY CONFERENCE.
Would love the chance to see the latest info & demos on how using CS tools in HTML5/CSS3 and EPUB production.
Hi,
I’d like to be at Max again for I would love to walk the crowds and find Russell Brown, Ben Willmore and Corey Baker around me…answering any custom question and smile.

As an experienced retoucher and teacher I always enjoy opportunities to connect with other professionals and to pick up a few new tips on how I might work more efficiently. The Adobe Max conference sounds like a great place to do all of this.
I’ve never been to Adobe Max, but I am a long long time user of Adobe products. The Cloud and all that Adobe is promoting are extremely interesting to me — for how it may affect my daily workflow. My company may not have the budget or see the value in this conference, but I know the value! Thanks for the chance to enter your promotion.
Just want to go…never been there, I am a web developer/designer and have been using Adobe products for 20 years.
Mainly Photoshop
I have read about and see lots of chatter after the event.
I think it is pretty cool.
I would like to meet and celebrate others who enjoy exploring Adobe tools.
I’ve never been, and would LOVE to be able to expand my skills and knowledge!
I would like to experience one of those legendary seminars MAX has!
