Editor's review of Adobe Photoshop CS2

- "Photoshop CS3 improves help and video support"
- Version reviewed: Adobe Photoshop CS2
Photoshop is the professional standard in digital imaging, with an endless selection of drawing tools, filters, and color-adjustment capabilities for manipulating items in almost any way. Originally designed for bitmap images, Photoshop lets you create eye-catching typography by placing text on paths or within shapes, perform shadow and highlight correction, explore expanded color-matching features, parlay efficient layer comps, and preview, search, and share images. Oh, and it's also the premiere program for managing home digital printing.
CS3 Extended includes support for rendering and integrating 3D images into 2D composites and video layer editing. There's also a greatly modified help menu to take the edge off your learning curve, with built-in how-to's on Preparing Art for Other Applications, Printing Photos, Working with Color and Type, and more. From simply lightening dark photos to improving color and contrast, to adding objects or people that weren't originally in the picture, Photoshop is an excellent tool whose innovative features meet any professional need.
Though it's an excellent software tool, the trial version demands a lot of download time, hard drive space, and RAM for rendering and other heavy tasks. However, the trial is fully functional, letting you edit, save, print, and export files, making it easier to assess this expensive product. Keep in mind that Photoshop has a steep learning curve, so great results take time and training.

Version: Adobe Photoshop CS2
Pros: Personally, I think it's a really well done program. It's not limited by 'presets'. It's just a sweet program. Once you get the flow of it, you won't want any other.
Cons: The pirce is way too high. And it's tricky to learn. (But worth it.) I went straight from MS Paint, to this program. I was completely lost. *.* They need to have more free help. After all, if your going to pay that much, they should offer to help you with it if your stuck. I have no probablem with the program (it's an excellent program). Just the price and the customer support.
