News just in that Adobe Creative Suite 5 will be released on April 12th, with shipping expected to start a month later.
As usual, CS5 will combine the very best features in graphics, video and Web design for professionals, for an extortionate price.
That said, have a watch of this video of just one of the new Photoshop’s capabilities. You will be blown away. This makes light work of what previous would have taken hours, maybe even days of work.
If you’re low on time, skip through to 2.50.
[Update: after you've watched this, you need to see what else Photoshop CS 5 is capable of. This other video will really blow your socks off.]

And for people who DON’T like Photoshop, you will love this:
Wow, that’s unbelievable! =O
Is this something leaked from April Fools?? It’s almost too good to be true!!! UNBEFUCKINGLIVABLE!!!
Zee, that is pretty incredible. Content aware filling like this was unimaginable until recently.
Is this a leaked April Fools joke? Certainly looks way too good to be true! I want it now!!!
okay. that blows me away. wushh. :P
wow! this will save me alot of time editing photos
Wow! That is unbelievable! Now only if I hadn't just purchased the CS4 Master Collection… You think they'll exchange the two suites out? ;)
Mind blowing. Can't wait to try it out.
Who, that is mind blowing! When he starts with some trash you think okey, i can do that with the clone tool, but the tree and especially the panorama are amazing!
That is seriously phenomenal. Im gobsmacked.
That tree – wow.
wow that blew my mind.. Can't wait for CS5!!
The GIMP's had a similar feature for years. Have a look: http://o3.tumblr.com/post/470608946/photoshops-…
Lies. This gives me a bunch of ideas for other fake filter jokes. Next make an “Aging” filter demonstration and start with a stock baby photo, run the filter, then show some famous actor.
Photoshop. Ruining photography and artistic integrity since 1990.
They showed this at MAX this past year during the Sneaks. It was awesome then too!
Wow, that is incredible. Photoshop just keeps getting better.
This is totally unbelievable!!
unfortunately no, unless you purchased their upgrade assurance protection, which is very expensive.
This is really amazing cant wait till it drops
It's amazing that this is possible. Can't wait to have it in my toolbox
This certainly will blow you away. Most impressive thing I've seen in PS ever. If that came with good performance. I'd roll out the $s for it for sure.
It's very neat indeed, but keep in mind that it almost never works as well as the carefully chosen and previously tested demonstrations. I remember seeing a live demo of the now defunct 'extract' function that really made it look more useful than it really is.
Woo! Can't wait for that torrent… XD
wow, that looks amazing. I would imagine that it takes some serious computing power to make that progress bar move in a timely manner.
wow… just wow
will it complete a photo of a half naked celebrity?
WOWWWWWW
I worry for my career now, I wanna be a graphic designer, but who needs one if your grandma can carry out the same tasks? On the minus side, it's going to be hella expensive, and (REALLY)CPU intensive.
that's true. they aren't going to share anything that makes them look bad. but even if it puts you a giant leap in the right direction it could be a huge time saver.
I'm sold to get one of this! Excellent stuff! Makes work hella easier :D
No its no joke. If you want to see a bunch more stuff that might appear in CS5 check this site
http://cs5.org
They put that video out awhile ago. I am shocked by how long it took to become viral….
This isn't necessarily part of CS5… he said they were working on it in their labs. That's it.
Way to jump the gun on that one.
Holy…..Shit…..Content Aware Fill? The best thing since post-its!
I'm sorry. Not all of us can afford expensive a$$ cameras/extra equipment. Be knowledgeable about positioning or want to wait the whole day for perfect lighting.
Get off your high horse and let us who just want a nice scrapbook have our cheat.
I still want to see a built-in Expose-like feature to zoom out multiple windows!
There has been forms of photo manipulation and editing in photography since before photo shop was even invented. I believe the earliest recorded photo manipulation was in 1869.
Photoshop just provides an alternate means for these changes.
Regardless of this you still need to be creative, artistic and think about your photograph before you can create your own photographic masterpiece.
Most definately an early April fools!
Gimp can't even be close to Photoshop now :'(
WOW! Thats amazing. I especially like the panorama example at the end.
Photoshop being the cheap alternative to good photography…
Yok artık deve
wrong. photography and artistic integrity has been ruined since the invention of the everyday consumer digital camera.
Lovely, but Adobe could improve the User Interface because it is a way behind all that graphics capabilities. Thanks God it is not such a mess like in a GIMP;)
Hey, the video is not working… :(
someone already commented that this is in gimp already
first of all why isn't something like this available in GIMP by default. Also its not that efficient as PS and not as handy as it is in PS.
So April for preview and October for general release?
Looking forward to getting to use this and very interested to see what new features will be in other products within the suite.
Wrong again… ever since animals picked up a stick, and drew something on the ground actually.
Having not been there, are you 100% certain that Ms Mona Lisa looked exactly like that? Are you certain Leonardo didn't simply leave out the Pepsi can sitting on floor? Prior to digital, are you 100% certain that there were no darkroom techniques employed to tidy something up or alter exposure?
Anyone who's been shooting even semi-professionally knows that when you're not in the controlled environment of a studio, things can go wrong. Tiny things can ruin everything. At a commercial level, a piece of trash on the grass can destroy an otherwise perfectly composed image… are you going to go back on location to re-shoot?
Art “purests” can rant as much as they like, but art has rarely been about realism.
Awesome. Can't wait.
Isn't that wonderful!
Can we get a sneak peek at the new Adobe customer service?
The last three times I called, I was put on hold for 25 minutes, 20 minutes,
and 2 HOURS, 38 MINUTES , 15 SECONDS!!!
That was a call to Adobe to *Sales*!
I still have yet to actually BUY the software I called about.
This could be used to strip out visible watermarks on an image too. Image libraries and photographers should be concerned about this.
Microsoft Digital Image Suite had this feature a long time ago…
WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD THE TORRENT AND THE CRACK???
In the last shot it shows a bird being added in the sky, makes me wonder if it is for real, or they are faking the last one.
Computers cannot replace creativity just yet though. Just the tools. And that's all they are.. tools.
and you'd be surprised how absolutely computer-illiterate many people are.
What is the price tag?
reverse engineering – they take the final photo – crap on it and show it as the first – what they say they do is impossible
bravo open source!!
Of course it won't work as well as you see here (notice he didn't deselect after that final cloud fill to let us see how it handled the seams) BUT it still looks to be a pretty clever new feature and will certainly add one more valuable way to help us achieve the final results we need. … Kinda like healing brush and, back in the day, clone tool did.
“Art “purests” can rant as much as they like, but art has rarely been about realism.”
Yeah but the difference is that no one ever believed art ~was~ about realism. The viewer always knew that the painting was an interpretation. The problem with digital manipulation is that we are expected to believe the results. Doing a bit of cleanup is one thing. But completely mucking with our perception of reality is freaky.

Ugh…as a professional photographer, I'm ashamed to be associated with some of you smug, self-righteous dicks.
This is always said about every new technology in every artistic field, you can choose not to embrace it at the expense of being left behind by modern photographers/artists who will use it. the future is almost always given to those who are willing to push new technology/techniques to its limits.
Looks like this will be a great feature! I also love that fact that people that are so clearly against photoshop are watching and posting on a video about it?… Lol nothing but trolls.
Ive seen quite a few shops in my day, this video is clearly shopped, cant do that!
I almost did my dissertation on techniques for that a few years ago. I very much doubt this is a leaked Aprils fools joke. It could be, it isn't hard to do. However if it is an April's fools joke it's a stupid one because this technology has been around for a while and is common for research projects in CS departments. This would make it a stupid one because it's something that's becoming available any time now and one wouldn't be much of a fool to believe that it had arrived.
“content aware” stuff has allot of potential but isn't easy always to implement for certain scenarios. For example, there's a hell of allot of different ways to analyse a filled area and fill in a blank area. To compound matters further, each such method usually has quite a few constant-variables that can be tweaked. In this demonstration it looks like they've done a pretty good job of it.
The arguments about artistic integrity are retarded. I agree, with features like these allot of annoying things will happen. Consider what computers have done for music. Occasionally, some great things. However, one should listen to a genre called Goa (or goa trance, etc). While there is a small minority of bands that could be considered good in this category, the sheer bulk is a $#!7flood of never ending repetitive drivel. There must be about a hundred bands in this category where if you took a track from each and removed the artist listing you wouldn't be able to recognise that any of the tracks were from a different artist. Regardless, this is not a cause to abandon electronically produced music entirely. I've also heard traditionalists busking on the tube that should be paid NOT to play.
Sure, it will even mean that some things that were hard before are now easier subsequently devaluing that previous work. However complaining about that would be like the first mathematicians complaining when the first pocket calculator came out that it devalued their work and took their jobs away. Regardless of how stupid it has been demonstrated to be, I'm sure some whiny progress haters will find some irrational cause to protest.
As a programmer, I strongly approve of smart features such as these. With the power of computers today, programming any kind of simulation (such as a game) can be extremely taxing. It's not always about “art” but about realism and by that, I don't mean the source but the destination. The output has to look convincing. The source of the material and what happened to it between is irrelevant. There used to be a time when colours and resolutions were so low you could make each visual element by typing in the actual numbers for the colour or character to be used. Today, anything even remotely like that is usually too time consuming to be practical for anything but the most minute touch ups.
When it comes to cleaning up textures taken from real photos and making good UV maps these features could be great. For example, consider I saw a house with an awesome wall on holiday and wanted to use that as a content source for a house in a game. When I arrive home, I could find that my favourite section has a lens flare on it. With this that wouldn't be a problem. There's also so many pictures I could take (for example I may take close ups because I want high resolution textures), and the real house's size is constrained. For generating the textures for a game these kind of features are very useful. If I had a few close ups, I would use these with content aware tools to create a full texture. Further more, if my game house was bigger than the real house I would have no choice but to have some kind of pattern recognition and continuation. Similarly, for the different dimensions of each side such processes could be useful to make the texture continuous. Further still, for multiple houses randomisation can be applied to the pattern generation to create a unique texture for each. That's a fraction of the advantages of advanced image analysis and generation/alteration.
Cry artistic integrity all you like, but at the end of the day I'd have some pretty awesome looking and convincing houses in my game, without having to pay any stuck up Scrotographers/Fartists who go around acting like they cured cancer or something, waste hours time or resort to horrible methods like flipping images around to make them congruent/using boring stock repetitive tiles.
What I like the most about it though is that I reckon that this tool they used for lens flare removal will make it even easier to remove mildly transparent clothing from pictures of ladies!
P.S. I'm a programmer, that means I'm a pro, so stay with the flow, stick with the program, don't be stepping, Nazis can't find fault in my grammar, don't be prepping for a Word Wide War, not a rapper, not a spammer, not an earthworm, Jim.
Or the industry standard of professionals everywhere. Get out of the dark ages.
“will it complete a photo of a half naked celebrity?”
Most likely not with any accuracy (and even then you'd need to provide more data such as pictures of other naked people for training/alignment). It's almost certainly based on pattern recognition. It detects a pattern. Once you know a pattern you can probably duplicate it quite easily. It's very easy to implement something that does this (all you need to do is collect statistics of each's pixels neighbours) although not a necessarily effective or easily usable implementation. That's been around for a long time. The problem is, in a partial picture of a half a celebrity (unless vertical) there are sub patterns, but the full celebrity is an irreducible pattern its self. The chances are the bottom will roughly mirror the top or vice versa.
Really now? Photoshop can actually be a vehicle for photographers and artists. The point of using it is to retouch an image or totally create something new. It's a medium on which creativity can be expressed.
Your statement collapses when one examines it closely and you have no argument.
I completely disagree with your comment. Using Photoshop is a task in itself. Most of the time we as photographers/artists/designers seek more in what we can actually get. That is what Photoshop gives us.
Anyone can take a photograph and manipulate it. But the question remains are the adjustments of quality? Just because you are a good photographer doesn't mean that you can take a great picture too.
Art comes from experience, not from the click of a button.
Another artistic elitist. No wonder we have a horrible reputation with comments like this. Sure being purist is a great challenge, but not everyone in the world has the ability to sit around all day waiting for the right moment, or find the patch of grass without any 'problems'. Clients don't want to pay for that.
Digital photography is just the next step to quicken the process of art. I love film and wish I had time and money to shoot more of it. It's so much more forgiving, but the elitist attitude that you have ruins all of our reputation.
OMG. Photoshop CS5 is giving me back the equivalent of half of the last six months of my life.
Whoa!
Photoshop CS5: If it hasn't been shopped already, it will be now!
I don't use photoshop for photos, so i don't really have any opinion on this other than a kind of awe at how far technology has come.
And I would think that something like this existing would only increase my appreciation for people who can create amazing art without it!
This is definitely Photoshopped. *nods*
It's not that amazing. The GIMP has had this feature for ages. http://o3.tumblr.com/post/470608946/photoshops-…
Sandy was being sarcastic since the guy she replied to commented on the expense of good cameras that people cannot afford.
Wow. Technology is improving so fast, we get one thing and we just make it better and better! Really looking forward to this.
Brick Cell Phones > Touchscreen Cell Phones

I was an airbrush illustrator for 40 years retouching photos for Ad agency's, magazines, museums, and printers. While Photoshop took that (considerable) income away from me,
I 'm constantly thrilled by it's magic in my on-going personal and commercial work. I dont understand why there are such wankers complaining.
Some even better examples of this awesome feature: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ScWu7pG7r0
So amazing!
Will it take the stains out of my toilet!!!
Will it take the stains out of my toilet!!!!
Well, if she was being sarcastic, consider me schooled.
OMG. This is truly amazing guys. How in the world can a software do that much. It must have taken millions to develop content aware fill. Thanks
I want to see it fill an empty spot in a crowd of faces.
I used to do the old fashioned film and dark room photography, and digital is definitely not the same. Half of the artistic process is what you do in the darkroom, not just snapping the picture.
That said, digital photography is the technology we have today. You take the picture, which is an artform itself. And then, similar to fixing things and doing what you want in the darkroom to make the picture looks it's best, you use the computer to manipulate and perfect your image. The 'art' as a finished product is more than just the image seen by the camera. Could you shoot something with a traditional film camera, slap it out without attending to small details and adjustments, and call it art? You could, but no self-respecting photographer would do that, because they is not what they want to publish as their best effort to create something beautiful. Just because a photo is manipulated and touched up doesn't mean it's no longer 'art' or 'good photography'. The final product that you deem presentable and the best it can be is the art. It is NOT 'ruining artistic integrity', as Nick says, by using editing software such as Photoshop. If you believe that, then you have a very narrow concept of what the word 'art' really means.
We should appreaciate how far technology has come and just leave it at this: CS5 will be flippin' awesome.
Well thats neat.. but its not a real photo anymore. Once you chance the pic that much you might as well have brought a postcard because thats not what you saw on holiday.
amazing!
I have to say that for the time this will save trying to do what was shown in the video, it has to be worth upgrading to alone!!
Amazing.
Will it take the stains out of my toilet???
Really great new feature. As someone that teaches it too a lot of university students and has been using it since the days of Photoshop on an SGI (MIPS) machine, I think the product has got better year on year.
Wow!! I gotta get me one of those! I especially loved the last example – I recently did a similar group of shots and put them into a panorama and it took me forEVER to make it right.
Very good
Whooooaaaa!
That's awesome! And Frank, call me crazy, but any retouched pic is not “real” anymore, no matter how big or small the change.
great.. we'll have more 14 year-olds with cracked version providing “professional photo adjustments” for $5 than ever.
As a professional designer, this is great, but it's also going to mean I have to compete with the wannabe designer hobbyists, preteens, and stay-at-home mom's providing the same thing which took me years to learn how to do.
Wow crappy photographers can now make perfect pictures!
oh my sweet lord! how amazing is this??!?
This is so antique! Two words GIMP Resynthsizer Plug-In…
Maybe not that perfect (haven't tried it yet) but it's definitely no Adobe invention.
Crap! I just upgraded to CS4!
I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES, NOT SNAPSHOTS FOR OVER 40 YEARS AND THAT IS NOT PHOTOGRAPHY. ANYBODY AT ANYTIME CAN MAKE ALMOST A PERFECT PICTURE WITH NO REAL PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE. I BET THE PEOPLE WHO USE ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR DOES NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN F STOP, A SHUTTER SPEED, AND A.S.A. FILM SPEED. ALSO, HOW ALL THREE WORK WITH ONE ANOTHER. I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL YOU PEOPLE THAT DO NOT KNOW THE BASICS IN 35 MM PHOTOGRAPHY. LEARN PHOTOGRAPHY FROM THE GROUND UP BEFORE YOU GET INTO THIS HIGH TECHNOLOGY OF FAKE AND PHOENY PICTURE MAKING. DON'T INSULT ME BY CALLING THIS PHOTOGRAPHY!! IT'S NOT PHOTOGRAPHY, IT'S FAKE UNREAL SNAPSHOTS DONE BY YOUR FANCY COMPUTER WITHOUT USING YOUR BRAIN!! REMEMBER MATHEW BRADY, OUR CIVIL WAR PHOTOGRAPHER BACK IN 1865. WHAT ABOUT THE GREATEST PHOTOJOURNALIST IN THE WORLD, THE LATE EUGENE SMITH THAT DIED IN 1978, HE RISKED HIS LIFE THAT EXPOSED THE POISON WATERS IN JAPAN THAT KILLED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AND MANY PEOPLE BORN WITH DREADFUL BIRTH DEFECTS. THOSE PICTURES ILLUSTRATE THE PAIN AND AGONY THAT THOSE PEOPLE HAD SUFFERED. THAT'S REAL PHOTOGRAPHY!!!! A SKILLED PHOTOGRAPHER WITH A CHEAP PINHOLE CAMERA CAN TAKE TERRIFIC AND AWARD WINNING PICTURES. HOW DO I KNOW? I'M THE AWARD WINNER PINHOLE CAMERA PHOTOGRAPHER!!!!! BEFORE YOU PURCHASE PHOTOSHOP AND/OR ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR, YOU SHOULD TAKE A PHOTOGRAPHY EXAM AND IF YOU PASS THE EXAM, THEN YOU CAN PURCHASE THE PRODUCT. IF YOU DO NOT PASS THE EXAM, THEN YOU CAN NOT PURCHASE THE PRODUCT. OH, EXCUSE ME, I GUESS NOBODY WOULD BE ALLOWED TO PURCHASE THE PRODUCT. WE CERTAINLY DO NOT WANT CAPITALISM TO GET IN THE WAY OF OUR INTELLIGENCE!! MY DEEPEST REGRETS TO ALL OF YOU THAT THINK YOU KNOW HOW TO TAKE A PICTURE BY SIMPLY POINT AND CLICK. MOST OF YOU PROBABLY DO NOT KNOW WHERE THE SHUTTER BUTTON ACTUALLY HAPPENS TO BE ON THE CAMERA, ANYWAY. AGAIN, I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL YOU PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats?
I KNOW MY PHOTOGRAPHY. I KNOW THE RULE OF THIRDS AND HAVE SPENT HOURS JUST TO GET THE APERTURE AND SHUTTER SPEED JUST RIGHT, SO DON’T GO AROUND INSULTING PEOPLE WHO YOU’VE NEVER EVEN MET! SOMETIMES THERE IS SOMETHING YOU WANT TO FIX AFTERWARDS. POST PROCESSING MAY BE OVERUSED SOMETIMES BUT IT HAS IT’S PLACES. DON’T CONDEMN THINGS YOU HAVE NEVER EVEN USED.
People like that don’t even listen to reason, but i don’t blame you for trying though…
you’re dumb
You don’t use Illustrator to edit photo’s sweetie, that’s what Photoshop, the topic of the freakin’ video, is used for. But hey, nice try! At least you sound smart…or not.
LOOK HOW LOUD I HAVE TO YELL!!
Really great new feature. It's gonna make it so much easier and save more time cleaning up images.
Great software but think i'll wait till the price drops =(
WOW! That is a money maker. That is really cool.
this is the most magnificent photoshop option i've ever witnessed and sure to please everyone who enjoys working with photos to make them POP !
OMG!!! that is amazing and awesome!! I can't wait till I can get it!! *jumps and squirms*
I couldn't disagree with you more. As a photography student I would consider myself well versed in photography void of digital manipulation, with light retouches, and heavy manipulation. While I believe it is wrong to “grade” art, for what its worth I have aced my photo classes. So first of all, you are wrong to say everyone who uses photoshop and illustrator would fail a photography test (which by the way, illustrator has little bearing on photography so I'm not even sure why you bring that up.) Don't insult our intelligence. Second, the thought of taking a test to allow you to buy it is ridiculous. It is not made just for elitest douche bags. Its people like you that perpetuate a negative stigma of artists and get people thinking that artists are all dicks with a higher-than-thou attitude. No one gives a damn what award you won with an attitude like that.
TO SKY:
FIRST, YOU SEEM BOTH ANGRY AND CONFUSED ON WHAT I SAID. MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE AN ANGER MANAGEMENT COURSE SO YOU CAN BECOME A BETTER PERSON, IF THAT IS ALL POSSIBLE. SECOND, I DID NOT CALL OR ANYBODY ANY NAMES, THUS DO NOT CALL ME ANY BAD NAMES!! THIRD, WHY DON'T YOU READ WHAT I WROTE AGAIN AND YOU WOULD PERHAPS SEE THAT I WAS BEING SARCASTIC! HOWEVER, WITH YOU LACK OF READING COMPREHENSION IN TERMS OF THE TENSE OF MY WRITING YOU PROBABLY COULD NOT FIGURE THAT OUT BECAUSE OF YOUR LACK OF BOTH COMMON SENSE AND LACK OF LIFE'S EXPERIENCE CAUSES YOU TO TAKE THINGS EXTREMELY SERIOUS. I WOULD SUGGEST YOU TAKE MORE READING AND WRITING COURSES AND LESS ON PHOTOGRAPHY, ADOBE PHOTO SHOP, AND ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR. THEN YOU MIGHT UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. THIRD, I WAS NOT BRAGGING ON MY PHOTO AWARDS. CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN FOR LOSING MY POINT OF VIEW, MR. GENIUS!! MY POINT OF VIEW, MR. GENIUS WAS THE FACT A SIMPLE PIN HOLE CAMERA WORTH LESS THEN $10.00 CAN PRODUCE BEAUTIFUL AND OUTSTANDING PICTURES, THEN ALL THE HIGH TECHNOLOGY BALONEY THAT EXISTS TODAY. PLUS, THIS WONDERFUL HIGH TECHNOLOGY IS WAY OVER PRICE!! BUT, THAT IS THE PRICE YOU HAVE TO PAY WHEN YOU LACK ANY AND ALL PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE THAT YOU MIGHT THINK YOU HAVE BETWEEN YOUR EARS!!! I CERTAINLY FEEL SORRY FOR YOU AND ALL THE READERS OF MY EXCELLENT AND HONEST COMMENT FOR YOUR LACK OF UNDERSTANDING IN THIS MATTER. PLEASE STAY IN SCHOOL AND NEVER LEAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Waaaah! Never learned to use it, huh?
your a fucking faggot and id love to beat ur ass u old fuck
In reply to the man or should I say mindless animal!!!
You claim to be a student, but I think you are an inmate from a state prison for doing some heinous crimes. Well, Mr. Genius you really showed your true colors such as a dirty mouth, pure ignorance, and extremely immature baby. Again, I'm not upset by your comments because I feel sorry for you. I made an error of judgment. You do not need to stay in school forever because it would be a waste of time and money to try to educate a low life like you; however, please do the right thing and commit yourself into a mental institution for the criminally insane. Why? You do not fit to be in public. Good Luck and God Bless You!!
THIS IS SO COOL!!
Oh wait, what is the date again today?? :P
I disagree. If it were so complicated and art comes from experience, then why are companies moving more to user generated content? They get great quality work for nothing. And it's coming from people (from children to seniors) who don't have artistic “experience”.
I'm one for technology and am a graphic designer/copywriter, but I think it is a bit naive to think that the development of this software is NOT going to take food out of some people's mouths.
“will it complete a photo of a half naked celebrity?”
Well, not quite – but did you see the (real) new Content-Aware Fill demo with the photo of the woman in the swimsuit?
Photoshop CS5 Revealed! Plus MORE Content-Aware Fill Insanity
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-cs5-reveale…
(from PSW 2010)
Taking food out of one mouth and it goes into another.
Yet, the availability of photoshop to retouch images, even in such a dramatic fashion, doesn't degrade the need for photography. In fact, to my estimation, it means that more work can be done and therefore more photos will be needed.
But maybe I'm just an optimist.
Hey! You figured out how to turn Caps Lock off! Good job! :D
To Mr. Drewless:
The cap locks are to make my point more dramatic. It's amazing to find out how many geniuses exist in this world!! Please GO BACK TO SCHOOL!!!!
that was really cool….it really blow me away
Well, we're giving it away for free if you want to take a shot!
http://prodesigntools.com/win-adobe-photoshop-c…
Please go die in a fire
awesome now everyone can look beautiful on facebook and myspace!! time for photo editors to start lookin for a new job lol
ARE YOU AN ARSONIST? OR A WANNA BE ARSONIST & POTENTIAL MURDERER? WHAT MENTAL INSTITUTION DID YOU EXCAPE FROM YOU LITTLE GENIUS? YOU ARE A TOTAL JOKE. BY THE WAY, IS YOUR NICKNAME CHARLES MANSON OR ADOLF HITLER?
Yeah actually my close friends like to call me Adolf. I have diagnosed schizophrenia, also, so yay for me. But also, I will rape your family, then dismember, then burn them all, all while you watch.
You're real sick bastard that should definitely be reported to the Federal authorities for making TERRORIST THREATS at me. We can locate you and have you arrested and locked you up for a long time. It's not a threat, but a legal promise!! Just wait and see what happens next, especially who will be knocking on your door to take your ass away!! Bye!
That last comment shows how little you know about the internet and legal proceedings. Your laws don't affect me where I live; all they are are empty threats and meaningless words.
Suck on that, bitch.
JUST WAIT AND SEE YOU MINDLESS MORON!!! MY ENTIRE FAMILY ARE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THEY DO NOT WEAR UNIFORMS. THEY ARE HIGHER OFFICIALS, DUMB ASS!! GO BACK TO PRESCHOOL!!! I CAN PREDICT YOUR FUTURE IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS MAKING LICENSE PLATES!! I'LL BE BUYING A BRAND NEW LUXURY CAR REAL SOON, I HOPE YOU WILL BE MAKING MY LICENSE PLATES FOR ME, DUMB ASS!! HERE'S SOME GOOD ADVICE, WHEN YOU ARE IN A PRISON GROUP SHOWER DON'T DROP YOUR SOAP AND BEND DOWN TO GET IT. GO FIGURE THAT OUT FOR YOURSELF, DUMB ASS!! BYE A-HOLE!!!!
Writing all-caps like that makes you look like a 12 year old. “to make it look dramatic”? Its ironic that you claim to be a photographer, and still in an internet comment section like this you come off as the biggest jackass. What are you mad about? Photoshop? The way technology is progressing? This has nothing to do with the people commenting on this post. Oh sure, write back in all caps “go back to school” or whatever.. I’ve lived in Asia for 6 months and currently in Europe, generally photographers are the most independent and mature people ever. Even if people here or anywhere use photoshop and call themselves photographers does not give you any excuse to rant like that.
Get help.
Do you _enjoy_ arguing with people in incorrect grammar? I fail to see how you first called us unintelligent because we couldn’t see through your oh so blatantly ignorant all caps posts– if you’re trying to make yourself look angrier, you’re failing at it, and sounding like a prepubescent teen who just recently acquired a keyboard. I would also think that rather than call us animals, you would realize that by accusing us of being axe murderers and criminals you are being a hypocritical animal yourself.
tl;dr:
-Learn to stop bashing your keyboard with your drooling face.
-Quit acting like an uneducated buffoon, it’s just a little more than ironic for you to argue with someone, and call them stupid when you yourself should start using spellcheck and correcting your idiotic grammatical mistakes.
-Stop posting, period.
Lol, how long has GIMP had this feature already? Something tells me with the improvements in the open source community and the new integration features, it's gonna' be difficult for people to continually justify buying and upgrading Adobe products. I mean, why use the Creative Suite if there are free alternatives for all of it that take up less memory and support the same formats, and then some? I encourage everyone here to give GIMP a try if they're speculating on purchasing Photoshop any time in the near future.
Of course, the real issue is that no one does buy Adobe products these days. XD
Love the wp slug for this post
The comments on the blog post make me go *lol*
Sweet, finally everyone is going to look beautiful on social networking sites!
sooooo uhhh basicaly photoshop stole this from gimp……..
the original plugin was called “gimp resynthesizer”. it had smart remove, as well as other things, so when this new photo shop comes out, its going to be crazy expensive…. but i will have the original, at home, for free……
have fun getting trolled by Adobe.
—
before i get flamed, i would like to say i took computer graphics at my school, i never was fond of macs…. but the amount of force quiting and watching that damn colored pin wheel spin around put me off of the completely. i used gimp in the past, (mainly just to make .gifs) but after seeing how photo shop had the same shit as gimp, but was more encumbered with menus… i just brought my laptop in with gimp.
i finished that class with a 98%, i moved ahead so fast that i went through the curriculum 5 weeks into the 9 week course.
if you are a die hard photoshop user, dont bother trying gimp, you say you cant do this and that, even though you can…. you just dont take the time to look.
die hard mac fanboys, dont start up the mac vs pc thing….. i have 3 distros of linux i use, and windows 7…. i have never had any problems with windows…… ever…. and i had problems with a mac the 1st day i used it…. also, sorty to break your “im unique” bubble, but mac is based off of a linux distribution… and has the same hardware as a PC, just that you cant upgrade or put a real opperating system on it (boot camp is a virtual machine by the way…. not an operating system)
for all you, non photo shop fanboys… i suggest trying out gimp
