Mixed-media professionals such as photographers, Web designers, and
graphic designers will not be disappointed in Adobes latest incarnation
of Photoshop. In this release, Adobe aims hard at addressing the issues
of file management, easy photo retouching, and smarter output for the
Web. While Adobe manages to successfully address these issues, it also
remains true to its photo editing roots. New and improved features and
tools such as a painting option and an enhanced brush palette allow
Photoshop to build on its reputation as the leading tool for image
manipulators. New-school designers of wireless applications will smile
when they discover that Photoshop 7.0 offers support for WBMP-formatted
graphics. Photoshop 7.0s new file management system comes in the form of
a Windows Explorer-like file browser that allows users to easily sort
and locate their images within various projects. Users can now organize
projects by name, date, resolution, and a number of additional
parameters. The enhanced brush palette allows users to create custom
brushes and save them as presets that can be accessed from the Tools
options bar. Users can easily vary different aspects of the brush by
changing the hue, opacity, or flow of the brushes for pastels, oils, and
charcoal. Photoshop 7.0 also introduces a new Healing Brush and Patch
Tool. With these tools, users can easily heal their images by removing
scratches, blemishes, and other imperfections while preserving shading,
lighting, and texture attributes. Adobe has taken great strides in
revamping Photoshop 7.0 to be more Web-ready than ever before. With the
help of its companion software Image Ready, users can now easily create
rollovers and complex navigation bars by using the new Rollovers
palette. Additional Web-ready features include enhanced Web export
functions that allow designers to preview images designed for PDAs and
mobile phones in the WBMP format. Users can easily create a slide show
of their images and post online using the new Web Gallery. People
concerned about posting their images online can secure their images with
the new password protection feature before sharing them. Adobe has
finally introduced a long overdue spell checker with wicked multilingual
spell-checking capabilities. A new search and replace feature allows
users to search and replace across different layers in the same
document. While Photoshop 7.0 introduces an impressive array of features
that allow photographers, Web designers, and graphic designers to work
more effectively with Web and wireless devices, it also remains the
leading tool for anyone serious about digital imaging. No other software
package provides users with the ability to create such high-quality
images.
