Step 1. Install the Wine Team Ubuntu PPA
By installing the Wine Team Ubuntu PPA, we can ensure the version of wine we’re using is suitable and up to date.
To install the wine team PPA, execute the following, one by one:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine1.7 winetricks
Step 2. Using winetricks to get install dependencies for Photoshop CS6
Now that we have the most recent build of wine, we can get started on fetching the necessary build packages to run the Photoshop installer.
Here’s the command to issue and pull those dependencies
winetricks atmlib gdiplus msxml3 msxml6 vcrun2005 vcrun2005sp1 vcrun2008 ie6 fontsmooth-rgb gecko
If a few errors pop-up, don’t worry – chances are this install will still work.
Step 3. Running the Photoshop CS6 installer
Now that you have all dependencies required to run Photoshop CS6, you can now run the Adobe setup. Either right click Set-up.exe, or from the terminal:
cd /home/user/path/to/installer
wine Set-up.exe

Although this is for 13.10 it should work on 14.04 too as long as the Wine version is the same.
Well, according to the WINE database, it gets a good rating.
So, first things first, install WINE with:
sudo apt-get install wine
Then all you have to do is right click the installer EXE file, and select "open with WINE Windows program loader"
You can install it just as you would on a native Windows box.
