And the layers limitation refers to Paint layers only. The EDU option is perfect for students, hobbiests or those who simply want to use it to create game mods. You could start out with it and if you need to go beyond those few limitations, and/or if you should begin to use it for commercial purposes, you can simply upgrade to the Professional version.

Advanced Member alvordr Posted October 30, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 I, too, bought the educational version first, but then bought the floating between Win/Mac and finally commercial. If I had any feedback on that, it would be to simply get the educational, and then the commercial floating. I believe it would have been cheaper that way, but for the amount of time I saved and/or make with 3DC, I'm not complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
