Photoshop 1.0 Recreated On iPhone

Posted by timothy on from the when-time-loops-collide dept.

Dotnaught writes "Photoshop co-creator Russell Brown asked Ansca Mobile to re-create Photoshop 1.0, originally introduced in 1990, for the iPhone. The resulting app, created in three days using the Corona SDK, was distributed to 50 attendees of an event celebrating Photoshop's 20th anniversary. Programmer Evan Kirchhoff in a blog post explains that Ansca took the project on to prove its claims about how Corona makes iPhone development faster."

    Well, since the Photoshop took about 2 years to reach version 1.0, we can expect Windows 3.1 for the iPhone in another 3 days. In a month we'll have Windows 7 and CS4! Why hasn't anyone thought of this amazing SDK before?!

    I'm surprised it was approved by Apple.

      This is great news!

      A sure sign that Apple will approve the other pending Adobe apps.

    You're right; that's not real Photoshop at all. It's clearly photoshopped.

    Steve Jobs must be hating Adobe now.

    Knowing Adobe they'd rebrand it as iPhone CS 1 and want to charge $379.99 for it.

    I suppose Adobe Download Manager would soon follow ... oy carumba!
