New Photoshop Details Leaked

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the sneaking-a-peek dept.

Odie writes "Oops. Looks like Adobe accidentally let slip the details of the next Photoshop version due on Friday. According to BetaNews, the next version, dubbed Photoshop CS2, is supposed to add several new features such as Image Warp and Vanishing Point, as well as changing around the file browser to allow users access to royalty-free images from five providers for use in their work. The new version is due in May according to the press release which BetaNews saw."

      Dude, quit using Photoshop as a verb.

      You meant to say "I bet they've all been enhanced using Adobe Photoshop software."

      You are lucky I was here. Next time I might not be around!

      Sure, they could acrobat the offender, or they could premiere and then after effect the offender and his possessions. I even heard of one case where they called in the lawyers and illustratored, auditioned, golived, in designed, and pagemakered somebody!

    I hope the new version is out before a change to the $1 bill happens.

  3. Vanishing Point by mattkime · · Score: 4, Funny

    A tool known as Vanishing Point will allow the user to recolor and transform objects in an image without altering its perspective.

    Maybe its just me, but I've never had a problem with the perspective on an object while I was modifying the color. Now, if I'm using the transform function, I probably do want to alter the perspective.

    What does this tool do again?

    Considering the time it takes to start the program (from clicking the icon to scanning plugins to open the window with picture), I think 5 days starting time for the next version isn't that bad.

    I'd imagine that Photoshop's target market is not limited to those in the SA/Fark.com Photoshop arena.

    PhotoShop CS2? Not a very creative name for this Creative Suite.

    "Let me be the first to correct the editor and say it's Photoshop, not PhotoShop"

    This can be important. There was a very old desktop publishing package called "PublishIt". Many did call it "PubliShit".

    Some other features we can expect from Adobe, paragons of cutting-edge innovation:
    • Fuzzy dice.
    • Differently-shaped headlights.
    • A nice new splash screen.
    • Chrome, lots of it. Ooh ... shiny!
    • Fins.

    This is the version I've been waiting for. You know, the one where you can take a grainy picture of a person standing two blocks away and zoom in to create an 11x14 enlargement of the person's index fingerprint. Come on Adobe!

  14. It's available! by ByteMangler_242 · · Score: 3, Funny

    Don't worry, there will be a new "Enhance" menu. It will have sub-items "zoom in on that", "Can you see what's behind that", "What is that a reflection?" and "Clear that up". These commands only work if someone is looking over your shoulder, never alone. It has been rumored that there will be a "run through APHIS" command, but this may be disabled in the consumer edition. Myself, I would rather add "Undo stupid changes" to Edit, but that's just me.
