Is there a limit to what you can store on the Creative Cloud site? Are you limited to "just so many" megabytes or gigabytes?

Your free quota is 20 GB with the Basic Photography Bundle Subscription You can probably get more with an additional monthly fee. Although it is intended for image related items you can store anything in that 20GB.

In addition to that you have (AFAIK) unlimited image file syncing with LR Mobile. This is restricted to Smart Previews from you LR catalog.

Hasn't that limit changed though? IIRC, with last week's announcements didn't the new unrestricted Photoshop Photography subscription reduce the cloud space to 2GB for new subscribers (existing subscribers retain the 20GB though), though all photos synced via LR mobile are outside of this restriction. I can't recall if the photos limit is 60,000 or totally unrestricted. Victoria will know.

Thanks....I thought my memory must be playing tricks, but I checked back and remembered reading this article, so I guess they were wrong!

No, they were right. The NEW Photographer's Bundle includes 2GB of space, because they're now including unlimited LR Sync space. People who were already signed up get grandfathered in, so they continue to have the original 20GB.

Ah, thank you Victoria. Good to know that I haven't started imagining things....

When you say the NEW Photographer's Bundle, are you meaning, those of us who signed up for the CC $9.99 a month. Those who were grandfathered in, meaning those who previously owned Photoshop and initially signed up at a higher price to begin with?

So are you saying the Adobe web page that I referenced is wrong? If I were to sign up today, I would expect Adobe to honor the commitments on the web page that I linked to above. It only lists Free Members and Creative Cloud Members and make no distinction or class of Creative cloud members other than Team Members.

Can you find an official Adobe web page that specifies that 2GB limit for Photographer's Bundle?

Those who signed up for the 'special offer' photographers bundle before the launch event keep their 20GB. Those who sign up after get 2GB (which isn't advertised).

Yes, that page is wrong. It needs an additional column. I'll alert the powers that be. They are no longer advertising any space included with the photographers bundle - just PS and LR and LR sync - although it does also include 2GB and Behance. I haven't got time to hunt for an official page - I'll try later - but I was informed in a press conference with Scott Morris a couple of weeks ago. The fact that they're no longer advertising the space on the sign up page also fits. If you wish to confirm that, you could speak to customer services.

Yes I noticed that too. It is unfortunate since 2GB is close to useless and 20GB won't even hold a typical camera card full of images. Storing Smart Previews in the LR Mobile cloud storage is not much use either unless you are an iPad user. The two (three if you count Behance) cloud storage areas are not even integrated. So much image duplication ensues if you want to use the same image in multiple areas of Adobe's cloud.
I am reminded of Job 1:21...
