So Photoshop is Adobe's software? No, it was relatively simple when Photoshop was first born. It is an image display program written by Noel brothers in 1987. You can see the content of the image on the computer screen, but it is still black, white and gray. At first, its name was not Photoshop, but display. After many adjustments and revisions, the two brothers took their own software (the name of the software was changed several times during the period, and finally they accepted the opinions of visitors and decided to name it Photoshop) to participate in various exhibitions and promote their own software. During this period, the software has the content of color balance and saturation, and some color adjustments can be made.
Finally, a year later, 1988 was bought by Adobe (finally sold its own software at a suitable price), and Photoshop software was constantly adjusted and added new functions in the next two years.
Two years later, in 1990, Adobe released Photoshop 1.0, which was the joint efforts of the Noel brothers and Adobe. It is worth mentioning that the size at this time is only about 100K, which is a very small software.
199 1 year, Adobe released Photoshop2.0 version 2.0, which added the function of cutting the edges of objects, supported the CMYK color mode, and used the pen tool in it. The most important thing is that the road has appeared. With the appearance of these functions, this software can be used in the printing industry from the initial picture adjustment to the present.
1992, Adobe released Photoshop2.5 version 2.5. This version was supposed to be released, but there were some loopholes, so the new version 2.5. 1 was updated immediately. The previous version of this system supported the Mac system, and this version also supported the windows version from 2.5. 1

And there is a history panel. In Photoshop5.0.2 version 5.0.2, the first Chinese version began to appear. When Photoshop appeared 1 1 year, there was a Chinese version. In the past, China has always used the English version. Starting this year, you can choose to use the Chinese version.
1999, Adobe released Photoshop5.5 version 5.5. Adobe bundled this version with ready, and added functions such as saving as web page format, drawing and vector image, which provided great convenience for web designers. Since then, Photoshop has entered the web design industry.
In 2000, Adobe released Photoshop6.0 version 6.0. This version of the interface has been updated, adding filters (dissolve), and more tricks, that is, vector graphics drawing, and even adding layer styles. This version also implements vector graphics.
In 2002, Adobe released version 7.0 of Photoshop7.0. This version first vectorized all the words, and the words we entered became vector words that could be modified at any time. And added a repair brush and a new painting engine. Moreover, according to the popularization of digital imaging technology at that time, the support for camera RAW format was increased, and camera images could be processed directly through this software. This also established the position of Photoshop in photo processing.
In 2003, Adobe released the PhotoshopCS version. CS is just an abbreviation, and its full name is CreativeSuite, which means Creative Suite. Other related products of Adobe have also changed their version names and become CS. Since then, Photoshop7.0 is the last version named after numbers, and PhotoshopCS has also started the CS series.

Adding scaling and smoothing brushes can make Photoshop more powerful, strengthen the function of color correction, and finally strengthen dynamic images and simplify the information collected by data. Simplify workflow, improve design efficiency, and support intelligent scaling of content, support 64-bit operating system, in short: faster and stronger!

Users don't need to download Adobe products separately online in the future, but can directly choose the appropriate software to download on this creative cloud. The version released this time, named version, is more camera-friendly, adding the anti-shake function of the camera, improving the cameraRAW function, greatly improving the image sampling, and further improving the property panel, behavior and other functions.
20 14, Adobe released the version. In 20 14, Adobe withdrew from China market, and China R&D team moved to India. The main reason for withdrawing from the China market is that most users in China are using pirated software from Adobe, resulting in Adobe not making money. No way, some products of Adobe are too expensive for most designers, with a value of almost 8,000 RMB, which is more expensive for most designers. I really can't afford it, and the cracked software can also be used. Cracking Adobe software smells good.
