Yes, unfortunately it's only for CS6 and as said already in CC, but you still have access to the Exchange via the website, just not the convenience of from within Photoshop. Adobe - Exchange Joan

Some of you may already be using this but if not give it a go, it enables you to access Adobe Exchange (where there's lotsa lovely free bits and bobs) from right within Photoshop via "window - extensions - Adobe Exchange". https://www.adobeexchange.com/ Joan

I mainly look at the forum and within that the Film & Conventional Cameras, Analogue Processing and Digital Processing categories. Sometimes something on the Home Page will catch my eye but I seldom rootle down the page I just go straight to the Forum page and to said categories.

Here's something that I posted awhile ago and I use a lot (originally by Stuart Little) Stuart Little's 35mm Slide ( or anything you fancy) Retouching Open in camera raw, change size in workflow options, increase the size by 2, put a tick in "open as smart object" - then use crop tool 2x3 or...

We can scan and print 6x4.5 cm, 6x6 cm & 6x7 cm negatives and transparencies or scan straight to CD plus old glass negatives and slides. We can scan and print to a size to suit or just scan to disc. Joan

Nope, can't locate the Stuart Little video but I vaguely recall writing out the steps, I'll have another root around over the weekend. Joan

Stuart Little did a video on retouching 35mm scans in Photoshop & Camera Raw which was very good but it was quite a while ago so I'm not sure that it is still on-line, I may have saved the video at home I'll have a look tomorrow. But if you would like to have a gander around the web he works...
