Amazing Photo Editing Program (Adobe Photoshop CS4)

Advantages: Massive amount of features, endless ways to manipulate pictures
Disadvantages: Takes a while to learn how to use it

...Having recently reviewed Quark on here I thought I should also give a review on Photoshop as it is another program that I use on a daily basis. Photoshop is a photo editing program which again as with quark I started when I was 17 (long time ago now) and at college studying Graphic Design, being young and having never used the program before I thought it was amazing, I didn't realize that there where programs out there that could do so much to pictures. How times have changed, this program has been re-released several times since I first started using it and it has come on in leaps and bounds, it is now an even more amazing program which is packed full of features, you can pretty much do anything you like to a picture, it certainly makes me think twice when I see a picture in a newspaper or magazine, you never know what could have been...

Adobe Photoshop 7 - A Review

Advantages: The best photo-editor on the market, new time-saving features.
Disadvantages: Expensive, new version has few new creative tools, not good for home use.

...I've just spent £530 on a piece of software. Surprised? Don't be... You see, I do a fair bit of freelance digital photography and I needed a professional photo-editing program. After trying a few cheaper alternatives, I splashed out on Abode Photoshop 7 with all the trimmings, but I now use it almost every day. For the price, I don’t recommend it for non-professionals, but pros will gain some really handy features on this new, improved version of the Adobe program. The Adobe Photoshop 7.0 Package Here’s what you get for that ridiculously large some of money: Adobe Photoshop 7 – The main program has the same layout as before and all the features you’d expect to find for professional photo-editing are here...

Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0

Advantages: Great selection tools, pan & zoom in slide shows, price, printed manual
Disadvantages: file browser gone

...Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 aims to be everything the photographer wants for tweaking and fixing their images. Whilst the professionals prefer its more expensive big brother Photoshop CS, Photoshop Elements isn't to be sniffed at and offers 80% of the power for 10% of the price whilst making many tasks much easier. The biggest surprise coming from version 3 is that the file browser has gone. Adobe, what are you thinking? Well, it's clear what they're thinking, they want you to use the Photoshop Album interface which merged in to Photoshop Elements with version 3. It's actually a very powerful interface and lets you import and catalogue your images with ease and flexibility but sometimes, you just want to get down and dirty with the file system and the loss of a file browser hurts. As a sort of apology, Adobe have added the ability to...

Elementary Photo-shopping

Advantages: Packed full of features, Great fun, Improve your digital images
Disadvantages: You need memory!!

...~~~~ Overview ~~~~ Adobe Photoshop Elements 5 is a software package used to manipulate and enhance digital images, whether they are from your digital camera, scanned images or pictures from the internet. I mainly use the software to improve the pictures I take with my digital camera; altering the contrast, brightness, colour saturation etc, and also cropping and enlarging images. I also regularly alter pictures for documents and other applications, to make them smaller by compressing the images so they don't take as much disk space up. The program is split into two main functions: ~ Editor: Allows photos and images to be enhanced and edited using a range of different tools. ~ Organiser: Allows your photos and images to be organised using several different methods. ~~~~ Editor ~~~~ The editor is very versatile, offering a whole...

Adobe Photoshop CS2 review

Advantages: The best photo editing/graphic software you can get!
Disadvantages: The application takes time to load + it may take a little time to get used to.

...this is the best computer graphical program ever! Do you really want to know why? Yes, I bet you do! Simple answer; Because I can use it! I am hardly computer technical and I hardly have a good knowledge on using computers but for me to be able to use it comfortably when photo editing etc and to result in high quality outputs really does say something! Firstly I got this product for free from a friend who lent me the disk to use. I shall be honest, at first...I hated it! Once thing I hated and still hate is the time it takes to load the application. However when first opening the application it was highly confusing and remained this way for a few weeks until I got used to the icons and tools. For example, the magic wand tool is a tool which is used to select all pixels on the image which are similar or the same to the pixel you had...

Advantages: marvellous picture editing
Disadvantages: user face can be a little scary, because of all the drop down arrows

...now adobe photoshop is something i can indeed write about, this software when i first started to use it, scared the living day lights out of me, i swear id look at and think *oh my god, what've i taken on* honestly first appearance of the userface scared me. first couple of times i struggled to draw a straight line, i was unable to find where all the different tools were, i was slightly confused that if i made a mistake i could only back step once, i couldnt understand why i couldnt save it as a picture to open in the window viewer, i couldnt figure out how i could possibly change the colors from the default black and white, i didnt even know what a filter was, i couldnt under stand the concept of it for weeks, this is when i switched to using good old paint, i knew how to use it, i understood the theory of paint, but i wasnt completly...

Adobe Photoshop 5.5 - A work of art

Advantages: Fast, efficient, welcome 'web' upgrade for Photoshop, amazing number of features
Disadvantages: Might be a bit too expensive for beginners

...with all grpahics software, recommend a large screen resolution. Menus - Due to the fact that there are so many options to choose from, it can take a while to learn where they are! Once you know, you can control many features, along with some others that you wont find in any windows. One thing I would like to point out, the Save to Web button. This is one of the most useful features of Photoshop. While in many other graphics applications, you would create the image, then go to another app to compress your images for the internet. Adobe has now combined these, to enable the user to view up to 4 thumbnails of the image with different compression. This is also customisable, so you can select whether you want to save as a gif of jpeg. By default, Photoshop selects the most efficient to use, which is time saving. Help files - I haven't really...

Review of Adobe Photoshop 5.5 Media

Adobe Photoshop 7

Advantages: Wide variety of image tools, great working environment, supports all type of images.
Disadvantages: Not as such

...Adobe Photoshop is undoubtly the industry's best image editing software. It is integrated with all the required tools to meet you needs. I've been using Photoshop for about 3 years and i think without Photoshop things would have been very difficult indeed. The most distinct features of Photoshop include: Ability to handle almost all kinds of image file types even the latest version has the capability to produce images and graphics for the Wap enabled devices and Plateforms as well. Photoshop color correction features. There are verious tools that can bring some great effects to your image. I personally am inspired by the "Color Balance" command.. Powerfull image aditing tools such as Clone Stamp tools (My favourite), Healing brush tool (The most advanced tool), Magic Wand, Lasso, History brush tool and ofcourse Pen tool...
