Will it be Photoshop 6.5 or 7?
I think it's taking a little while longer than the likes of InDesign/Illustrator because they want to be really special, like THE reason to upgrade to OSX etc. Also as there is no competition, Photoshop can afford to take it easy, whereas Freehand 10 for X was out ages ago and Adobe want InDesign in the bag before Xpress comes to OSX.
I'll be at the Expo in London in 2 weeks time and will be able to see first hand InDesign/Illustrator being demoed, I wondered if maybe they would have Photoshop X there as well.

2) Opening and saving file usually 3x slower :mad:
3) Option click outside of the working window will crash the ENTIRE Classic environment

Holy crap, so that was my problem. Thank you!! I should have asked somebody earlier...
Fran411
In regards to it being carbonized already a few years ago, I used to use that arguement too (when the demo was shown)
But lately I heard that that build was just the very basics. It wasnt actually ported fully. You could only select a few tools (shown in demo) and thats it. 90% of the functionality was not there yet. So basically, they started (maybe) 2-3 years ago and have yet to finsih.
Imagine the demo Jobs gave of 10.1 a few months ago. For example whe showing the menu bar 'docklings' (volume, battery status etc), the battery status indicator was just hard coded to 77% (or whatever it was). It didnt actually work.
anyway I hope they put the same level of attention as the MacBU at MS did when making Office v.X. That really is a VERY nice piece of work. Illustrator 10 also seems to be very good
How are you so sure it will be PS 7? Im not so sure. Think about it, Adobe is most definatly a cross platform company. They are not going to release a new version of Photoshop just for users of OSX. The program must be compelling for both Mac and PC users. Illustrator 10 added support for OSX, but that was a bonus for Mac users - not the reason they upgraded the product. Adobe will not release a whole version number for simple upgrades, as was demonstrated by the 5.0 - 5.5 upgrade. Not a major upgrade, but had a few new features. I can see 6.5 with a few new features along with OSX support, not 7. PS 6 had a slew of new features, it will be difficult for them to improve on such a great product so soon.
Moogs
11-14-2001, 10:51 AM
Most likely, we will have the product in late January, and based on what I know it will be version 6.5 Basically, there will be improvements to the features that arrived with version 6 (tweaks to the Brush palette, improved vector capabilities, streamlined layer effects, etc), more so than a lot of brand new features.
Also, the fact that Illustrator 10 has just been released for OS X is a very good sign. Usually it's about a year between releases and this is when Illustrator 9 came out last year. Basically, we can assume Adobe now has the tools they need (in terms of a more mature API and OS) to get their OS X products out the door.
Photoshop 6 came out last December, so a January or February release makes sense, given the app is being written for a new OS.
The only product that at this time, that seems long overdue, is InDesign 2. That application has been in the works much longer than the others if memory serves correctly. Something on the order of 18 months now. It's available for pre-order, but who knows what that means in terms of a final release date.
Anyone know the precedent for that - how many months after a "pre-release" the actual product usually arrives? I never keep track of these things as I don't pay much attention to pre-release hype.

They have added enough new features (which has pushed back the release date to April 2002) to justify calling it 7.0 (of course, that also lets them charge more for the upgrade).
By that time it will be almost 18 months since the release of 6.0, which is just about right for Photoshop's whole point release schedule.

Where do you get that idea...that somehow version 7.0 would cost more to upgrade to than 6.5? As far as I know the upgrade price would be the same either way.
Also, seems you know about a bunch of new features and the release date. Care to elaborate?

I actually heard from a reliable "source" that Adobe is going to have a public beta of Photoshop 6.5,7 (I dunno what it will be called) in December.
If that's true, thank god! Just give me Dreamweaver, and a working Unreal Tournament (still can't get it to work) and I'm set in OS X for good.

Thread to FruJu, come in FruJu...
...tell us about some of those new features that were added that pushed the date back to April. Seems if the product is beta now, April is a bit late for release. Either it's going into Alpha soon and coming out in April...or it's coming out sooner than that. My money is on late January / early February.
Of course, if they have added some last minute features (major interface tweaks and the like), I might be willing to wait an extra month or two for a better product.

Anyone got definitive knowledge on this one? Friend-of-a-friend-of-a-beta-tester perhaps (nudge, nudge)?
Someone spill the basics (no conjecture) if ya got em:
Version number
Interface Tweaks
Biggest New Feature
I don't expect anyone besides Adobe engineers would have a clue as to the actual intended release date. That's a guess on all our parts, and I'm still guessing January or February. They're sticking to their normal development cycle as best as I can tell (from other products and from speaking with one of their engineers, who's not all that forthcoming for obvious reasons).

Leonis, don't give Adobe the wrong idea. There are lots of things - little things even - that can be improved with version 6. Things that I would expect them to do with the next version. Carbonization is not enough to justify the upgrade. Not unless it's going to be a $50 upgrade or something similarly low.
At any rate, given the number of new features on Illustrator 10 and InDesign 2, I think we can safetly assume there will be more than just carbonation stirring about in the next version of Photoshop.
:cool:

Dear Friends
I haven't read every post in this thread, but I can tell you that Adobe didnt announce an OS X-native version of Photoshop at Seybold. InDesign 2 was announced for the first calendar quarter of 2002. Surely you dont think Adobe is going to surprise us and ship an OS X-native version of Photoshop in that same timeframe.
Bruce Chizen, now CEO of Adobe, announced that all of Adobes major titles would be shipping for OS X within six months. Chizen made this announcement on the morning Illustrator 10 began shipping. Mathematically, were talking about April. But if were six months out now, its probably safe to say that its really going to be seven to eight months away before well actually have an OS X-native Photoshop.
When Photoshop and Spell Catcher are native, X will be my primary OS.

it seems that since OS X.1, Adobe went in a hurry for announcements : Illustrator X, then InDesign 2 are among the 4 major Adobe apps with Photoshop and Premiere.
I read somewhere that InDesign 2 was sheduled for first 2002 quarter then in the Press it is often spoken of january : good news.
Golive 6 and After-effects seem to be in beta-stage according to Railhead design and other news sites (with snapshots).
Except for Illustrator, 3 months ago no one had a clue about those others even if InDesign was probable because of its "major revision upgrade" big need.
So i think Photoshop could well be ready in the next 4 months with a beta stage in the beginning of 2002
It seems that Adobe was in fact waiting for X.1
I hope that Macromedia will have its products ready for MW New York and even sooner !
Moogs
11-27-2001, 01:05 PM
On a tangent, if you read through the Illustrator 10 manual, it specifically mentions capabilities related to "GoLive 6.0" in three or four places...so my inclination is to say it should be along before Christmas. No other apps (such as InDesign 2.0 or Photoshop 7.0) were mentioned, unfortunately. Although they do mention certain new capabilities as related to those apps...perhaps there are some hints hiding among them.

It's already in beta testing...but Adobe has long beta cycles (which is a good thing usually) so it remains to be seen. The good news is, by May 1 I bet we'll have them all (even Premiere and After Effects).

Big Bad ASP (Active Server Pages)

I believe Illustrator 10 was released so fast because of freehand 10... Thightly integrated with Flash this is Macromedias biggest competitor to adobe, except maybe golive to dreamweaver...
BTW, I use golive as HTML editor with the textwindow as default... The code looks exactly like I want it to, and I can easily check the layout or select the right cells in a table. I've tried to convert to dreamweaver and BBE but I guess i'm just stuck with this piece of software... (been using it since it was called cyberstudio...)

Using font tags at all. <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />
It's just slightly easier to write one Stylesheet and then link it to every page.
DW does NOT write good clean code, it's very easy to add additional worthless code on top of bad code, and it's hardly WYSIWYG.

I don't think that there was ever a demonstration of Photoshop 4.5 on Rhapsody. I think the keynote you are referring to is the one where Steve Jobs launched the OS X concept - where a port of Photoshop was shown running on an early version of X.
Remember Adobe had never supported Rhapsody - it would have required the rewriting Photoshop entirely in Cocoa (Yellow Box). None of the major developers were willing to do a Cocoa (Yellow Box) port, which is why OS X was introduced with the Carbon framework. Carbon allows developers to re-use a lot of the old OS9 code because it has most of the old APIs.
In the demo of Photoshop on OS X - which as I recall Jobs claimed took Adobe only two weeks to port - OS X was a very different animal. It had the platinum user interface rather than Aqua for starters. I suspect that there were more OS 9 APIs still available at that point - and yes I'm sure it only had a limited feature set. There's no way it would work on today's OS X.

1998...all you need to know to understand it was a completely different beast from the OS X released earlier this year / in use now. Honestly, the demo they did should not have any bearing on how people treat Adobe for the current version being built.
If we never had OS X at all, and were simply waiting for the next version of Photoshop, we *still* wouldn't have it until December or January most likely. Rarely is the product updated more frequently than once every 12 or 13 months. We're still not at the 12 month mark yet (though we're close)...So if they release in February or there-bouts, that's good with me.
If we're still waiting come late spring or summer, feel free to get beligerent. :D
I've installed Adobe Photoshop 7.0 (beta 43) and ImageReady 7.0 (beta 43) for Mac OS X.
Phothoshop "flies" on my G4/400! really!
It's simply GREAT!
ImageReady still needs some work: for example the layers palette appears in a Classic(OS9)-gray appearance instead of an Aqua appearance. On the contrary, in Photoshop, EVERYTHING has been beautifully "aquafied". I would like to post some screenshots, but to add an image here (in this board) I have to put it on a http webserver, and for "anonymity" that's not good

Thanks for the info guys. Either TS's server is messed up, or they've already removed all the pictures at the request of Adobe legal. I'm getting URL errors for each one....

[edit]
Upon further review, the few screenshots that do load look like total hack jobs. The Splash Screen is a JOKE. Adobe would never use anything like that - even on a beta product. I don't really follow the rumor sites much...is TS pretty reliable based on past screenshots and such? And it's already in beta, so the "will go beta in the coming months" comment also reduces their believability factor....

Just a little friendly reminder to say that when speculating on the next Photoshop remember that Adobe is most definately a cross platform company. They will by no means release an upgrade that is not warranted just for us Mac users that want to move to OSX. They have to make a number of improvements to the program to make it a viable upgrade for Windoze users as well. Im just not so happy about having to dish out even more money for somthing I just bought... Oh well, let the OSX apps role! <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />

All the screenshots loaded for me without any problems. I don't see why you think the splash screen is a "joke"? They've done outrageous splash screen before in the beta builds of older Photoshops. Overall, I'm really looking forward to having Photoshop for OS X. Then, I'll finally be able to start using OS X for most of my work. :)

I don't know...just looked really amatuerish to me...and the File browser thing looked like a total hack also. You can almost see where they took bits and pieces of other screen shots and molded it into the one you see....
Hope I'm wrong. Like I say I don't know much about Think Secret , but it just doesn't look convincing to me at this point. If the guy who commented earlier cares to elaborate more on the beta or find a way to anonymously post his screen shots (there are sites that you can do that from with mimal registration info / false info I'm sure)....that might help.

Moogs: I think they meant to say that PS 7 will enter public beta at some point. There's been rumors of that for a while.
I'm not usually into stealing software on the Net, but tried out Carracho when I was sick of waiting for MS to ship my copy of Office v.X. (For the record, I now own a fully registered copy of Office X.) In any case, I launched up Carracho, just to see what the fish of the day was. At least a dozen servers were offering Photoshop 7 for OS X beta 43 (I think that's what it was) for download. Based upon that, I have no reason to question Think Secret's report.
Note: Think Secret's server was experiencing very high traffic today. Server overload lead to some odd (non-) responses.
In any case, my photo editing needs are currently met by <a href="http://www.graphicconverter.net/" target="_blank">GraphicConverter</a> anyway. I'm looking forward to Adobe GoLive for X though, since I'm hoping to supplement BBEdit with a WYSIWYG web editor soon.

Zeno, I sit corrected (nice main screenshot btw). From the looks of it, Adobe has done a nice job with the interface. Thanks for posting that! Two questions for you: any changes to either the Brush Well , and is either the Brush palette or Options palette (as we used to know them) present? I'm guessing not, but even so it looks pretty cool.
What can you tell us about the real-time warping stuff? Did they finally add a grid-warping feature to PS?? That would be sweet. I notice a few of the text palette widgets too. Pretty cool.

Damn final exams are keeping me from really boring into it, but the anti-aliasing is nice and flexible - you can even choose the type of anti-aliasing it will do, menus in some areas like the "File Browser" are kind of awkward for me. Feels rather Macromedia like actually [the file browser not the program].
As far as speed goes its not snappy at most stuff, not like PS 6 and not like 10.1, but hey, its at Beta 43 right?
I am hoping for a first quarter release, say January or Febuary, mainly because I want to see it released at a MacWorld convention and I want to see 7.0 come out for Mac OS X before it does for Windows XP - no word on the Windows version as of yet.
Regardless, I don't know anything about any public beta, personally I hope they don't do that, I think commercial companies use it as a way to buy time for the most part. Apple basically had to due to all of us complaining and shouting, and the yeasr of delays, but as a general rule its a bad move.
The top command gives me the following info while PS 7 b43 is running in the background:
706 Adobe Phot 1.2% 0:19.74 2 73 443 16.3M 22.5M 33.4M 110M
There is a readme file but its just a blank placeholder that says PS7 readme will go here. Which sucks because I wanted to know requirement specs. No matter what, this is a late build and seems full featured, the Help menu gives the option to show system info:

Interesting. Have they updated or otherwise modified any of the filters and effects? So many of those things are borderline worthless because of their weak pixel-averaging effects, etc...I hope they've at least made them a little more precise / useful. Or even tidy up some of the dialogs.

From Railhead Design:
"Photoshop 7.0x034 Leaked
It’s been making the rounds at the usual “places,” and people are beginning to post all manner of screenshots on their websites — but the funny thing is, the beta 34 they’re using is almost two weeks old. However, the changes made since this build was leaked aren’t evident insofar as the interface is concerned. All the “basic” code has been rewritten, and the whole application is now feature-complete — all that remains is fleshing out what bugs may crop up. To that end, Adobe will be letting loose beta 38 either tonight or tomorrow, and there’s now a real chance we may get a release date announcement in January, which would be wonderful to say the least.
As far as me putting up screenshots, I’ll poke around this evening and see what I can come up with for tomorrow’s news."

Base on the overwhleming interest from users around the world I can predict the sales of Photoshop 7 for Mac will SOAR :cool:
Of course if nobody pirates ;)
I read somewhere on the web that the ratio of Mac/PC PS is around 60/40..... but with 7 and OS X I guess the ratio would be 80/20

Got my copy a few minutes ago...pretty slick. The toolbar icons react just like in AI for X (new icons, become colorful on mouseover). Yes, ThinkSecret's articles were accurate, as were their screenshots, but they've since been removed at the request of Adobe's sharks. Going to play now....one note: the last user to comment noted some sluggishness and I noticed he was on a G3. I'm running a G4/500 (TiBook) and it's as snappy as PS6 in OS 9 for me. The only things that could be a good deal quicker are toolbar refreshes when switching to PS from another application (they take just a second to come up, but it seems this should be instant). And quit time is still long. But, it's a beta and still probably has debug in it.
One note is that Adobe did not go very far to make PS 7 X-like. I would have really appreciated the incorporation of the Aqua UI's "sheets," especially when the screen gets crowded. I'd love if they would tap into Aqua a bit more before release.

It's ok. I don't know why they are going to call it 7.0, there isn't much added. It doesn't rember the palette locations, and font management is now a pain. OS X doesn't recognize all my fonts like 9 did but I haven't tried suitcase for X yet because I read some negative things about it. Scroll wheel doesn't work when running in 9. Wierd.
You get spell check, find and replace, (only works in X not 9) a few new text buttons like inDesign, new icons which I think are ugly and distacting, they look too thick, too embossed. Switching between apps is slow as earlier noted. Keyboard shortcut for 'hide guides' apple+"'" now brings up the grid only.
New tools- Healing brush and patch tools.
Healing brush seems to be a stamp tool that feathers the edges after cloning the pixels. Not sure why that's useful.
Patch lets you move pixels within a selection and then feathers the inside edges. Again, not sure why that is useful.
Art history brush (that's new right?)It does all kinds of brush effects.
File browser- THANK GOD!! After 6.0 came out WITHOUT ' MAKE PREVIEW' i haven't been able to view thumbs of graphics that I needed to open up. So I had to resort to SimpleImage and MediaPro. No more!. This is basically graphicconverter image browser built in. Navigate to a folder and it makes thumbs of the images, then double click and it''s open. Yo can even delete images from it!
Slower than 6.5. Slower opening files, slower running filters, just slower over all. (beta of course)
ImageReady has a few new additions to it. But nothing mind boggling. Image Ready 7.0 or Adobe Eelpout 7.0 depending on where you look. What happened to Image Ready 4.0?
So, didn't see the "wrap text around 3d objects' as I think thinksecret said. And not sure about the new anti-aliasing from quartz looks the same as in 9.
So, maybe they'll add some more stuff, this was 043.

Besides what's been mentioned...
There's also new layer and brush modes, workgroup features. A brush palette that's kind of cool. You can choose from lists of presets for each tool. You can resize the curves window.
Although tablet pressure works for brush size I can't find anyway to make it work for opacity.
There's lots of little things through out.

Found them!
Under Brush option.
Size - go to brush size
Opacity - Go to other dynamics.
but you will have to enable EACH brush for the pressure and opacity....this is very annoying :mad: ....well...that's why it's beta...
Also, now the memory allocation is exactly the same as the Windows version. Have to 'reserve' the percentage of available RAM to PS....thought the memory allocation would adjust dynamically ......

Can anyone comment more on the Aqua UI - in terms of adherence to Apple's standard? Someone mention there is no support for Sheets. Are the open and save dialogs (for example) something that Adobe hacked together, or the standard OS X ones?
Are there are parts of the App that use Classic widgets and such? I can't imagine they would be that sloppy to mix them in but who knows.
Unfortunately none of you can comment to Adobe because then yer up shit creek and so is the guy who leaked the build (actually he's probably already off the beta team at this point, given hown many places it can be found). Dumb, dumb dumb.

Picture a carbon port of PS with a few additions, and ugly thick embossed icons and you have PS 7. I'm disappointed if they don't make some more changes before it's released.
All the drop shadows are soooo annoying. The top tool bar casts shadows on the palettes and each palette casts shawdows on the palettes under them You acn't see the title bar or buttons because of these fricking drop shadows. Very annoying.
You want to get an idea of PS 7? Boot into 9 and open up PS while running Kaleidoscope with an Aqua theme.
Nothing spectacular.
Moogs
12-12-2001, 07:54 PM
So basically, it's like Illustrator (from a visual standpoint)? That's what it looks like based on the screeshots I've seen. I agree the shadows are a little annoying but they're not as big a nuisance as you make them out to be. They certainly don't obscure the palette buttons (or if they do, Adobe will fix it).
I am more curious about the more substantive aspects of Aqua / Quartz under PS 7 though. The Open / Save Dialogs, font renderings, etc. Anyone else have a comment?

I am surprised at the reports of PS and Quartz rendering [my polite way of saying bullshite], because since Adobe went cross-platform they have always used their own graphics display and font rasterizing technology. See AGMlib, CoolTypeLib and since Illustrator PDF50lib. I believe PS7 still uses AGMlib and CoolTypelib so any mention of Quartz and PS is probably wrong.
Like Illustrator, no sheets, standard save dialogs.

Well, there are a lot of people that do mind the shadows, if you don't that's cool.
As for the other stuff, it's carbon, so it's not much different from the 9 version. The open and save are the standard under X, font rendering looked the same as in 9, I don't see how it could use X's quartz engine for anti-aliasing as everything looked like it does in 9, and it's carbon so it does run in 9.
As for the Aqua, looks just like Illustator, and as I said earlier, imagine running 9, using a Kaliedoscope Aqua theme and you have photoshop 7.
You can tell I'm not impressed? Did I mention it was slow?

KidRed, you are really bullshitting!!! I can't believe what you're saying.
My impressions are completely different: in Photoshop 7 everything is BEAUTIFULLY "aquafied" and beautifully designed; look at the main toolbar (nearly the same as in illustrator): it's a piece of art!
Sorry, but your comparison between "PS under OS9 while running a Kaleidoscope theme" and the real PS 7 for OSX it's the greatest BS I've ever heard!

WHat the hell is aquaified about it? Do me a favor.
Open up system prefs.
Open up PS 7.
Do they look similar? No? Why? BECAUSE IT'S NOT ****ING AQUAFIED. It looks like 9 with Kaiedoscope. Why? Because I run 9 everyday and use an X theme with Kaliedoscope! Don't starting swinging profanities out and not expect to get any thrown back at ya. Your post is the great peice of shit I've ever read. You wanna get personally over opinions that's your choice.

Well, can we stop this and get back into the Photoshop X discussion?

My comment was about you bitching about a beta version of PS 7. Considering PS7 is beta.. and not for consumer consumption your bitching makes you look ill informed and basically a moron. People who grab illegal software off the net then come on forums and bitch cause it doesn't work the way they want it to more likely than not get told to piss off. Why? Cause it's beta. I was talking about your "and it's too slow" Saying that makes you look foolish when your talking about a beta son. If you knew anything about betaa software you'd know it's usually slower than the final version and you wouldn't have made such a comment. Understand?

This is what's called stupidity folks.

Oh I agree. That is why I posted and pointed it out in the first place. Bitching about beta software being slow is quite stupid

How is complaing about speed and the icons being too big & drop shadows that are annoying stating that the software doesn't work? Yep, stupidity at it's stupidest

I am *sure* I had used PS 7 before you got your hands on it son. And I am sure with your comments that I have read that you couldn't answer any questions about PS 7 that i don't all ready know.
Remember folks. When you d/l illegal beta software off the net.. it's going to be slow and it will usually have some quirks. Expecting it to be perfect makes you look like a horribly informed brat.

All the drop shadows are soooo annoying. The top tool bar casts shadows on the palettes and each palette casts shawdows on the palettes under them You acn't see the title bar or buttons because of these fricking drop shadows. Very annoying.
You want to get an idea of PS 7? Boot into 9 and open up PS while running Kaleidoscope with an Aqua theme.

Anyways, I discovered a few more things new in PS 7 and since I seem to be the only one trying to discuss 7, I'll add more info.
New in 7-
now when you double click on a layer it no longer pops the Blending Options window. Instead you are essentially clicking on just the file name. This allows you to change the file name without having to do so thru Layer Properties as before. I got used to the double click blending option window so this is disappointing and I will have to get used to it.
The Blending Options in the layer palette in more similar to ImageReady now- There's a little 'F' icon at the bottom of the layer palettes as in ImageReady. Clicking on it brings up a contextual menu of the options.
The beta didn't come with a dictionary so I couldn't test the spell checker (this was in 9, may differ in X)
I'll post back if I find anything else new.
Moogs
12-17-2001, 03:28 PM
Kidred, The reason Adobe has changed the implementation of the blending options is because hundres of users have been begging for it. Most people felt the Layer Styles Dialog (I assume that's what you're referring to) was too big, and coule better be implemented as a dockable palette like ImageReady. So apparently Adobe has listened. This is GOOD news.
Furthermore, I wouldn't assume that just because you're looking at a mid-beta (which you are) that the eventual final appearance of the application will be exactly the same. I can't remember if Illustrator's palette tabs are aquafied or not, but if that's the only thing not aquafied in PS7, you're bitching about nothing. All of the command tools, control widgets and menus are aquafied, so just chill.
Contrary to the arguments going on, I thought the point of this thread was to let the rest of us non-carracho people how the product has changed. I still haven't heard anyone talk about the new features such as real-time warping of objects, etc.
Instead of saying "well there's function X, and I don't like it. Why not just post a small screenshot and let everyone decide for themselves? Sheesh.

I am not too sure when the Q1 starts....assuming Q1 starts January.....we should see Photoshop releases on April.

When he said Q1 then everyone will be very excited and in other words they are going to have a lot of pressure.
I still hope late February.....
Moogs
12-17-2001, 05:59 PM
Well, you guys beat me to it. I take Q2 to mean second quarter of the calendar year. Which means friends *ahem* kidred *ahem* there's lot's of work yet to be done on the application. Aquafication and all. I seriously doubt the feature set is frozen yet. That usually happens about 6 weeks before release IME so they don't introduce new bugs close to production, etc.
KidRed
12-17-2001, 07:39 PM
Moogs,
I am chill and I'm not bitching. Reacting publicly about my opinion is just that. Anyways, not here to fan the falmes :)
As I said earlier I haven't found any 3D text warping as claimed at ThinkSecret but something else I found was that when you resize via the bounding box, the image is resized live. And you can resize let go and see how the image looks, then it ok, corfirm the resize. Before you only saw the bounding box and had to assume the size was accurate. I like this.
Not sure about your palette dialog statement. If I understand you, then the dialog window size, look and feel is the same, only they added the ImageReady stylized 'F' to the layer palette so you have that option to bring up the Blending Options window. My comment wqs before you could double click on the active layer to prompt the options window. Now you have to right click and chose blending options or click on the F at the bottom of the palette.
Q2 is usually used in context of the fiscal year, which i think ends in either october or november, so q2 would start in march (though, having lived up here in canada for the past three years, i'm not even sure of that anymore -- everything seems days, weeks or months "off" up here... thanksgiving, tax day, independence day... can you tell i am a transplanted yank?).
anyway, whatever it means, it DOES mean that it won't be shipping in january at macworld san francisco. damn... maybe i can get my jollies with indesign 2 (provided THAT is shipping come jan. 7)
does anyone know if the plug-in architecture has been changed for photoshop x, or am i gonna have to wait for upgrades for them, too?
good thing my wife's still a student -- these upgrades would put me in the poor house otherwise. ;)

Actually depending on which software....sometimes upgrades cost less than the full academic versions but sometime it's totally opposite
Example
1) Illustrator 10 - Upgrade costs $230 CDN vs $142 CDN for the full academic
2) Cinema 4D 7 - Upgrade costs $300US and $400 US for the full academic
3) Freehand/Flash/Dreamweaver - Upgrade cost at least $225 CDN each vs $145 each (academic)
4) Photoshop - $320CDN for upgrade and $445 CDN for full academic
5) Final Cut Pro - $479 CDN for upgrade and $450 for full academic
Basically.....I always go for the cheapest way cause I am a real cheap bastard ;)
When the academic version is cheaper than buying the upgrade....I then will ask my cousin to grab them for me
But in the case of Photoshop....upgrade cost is over $100 CDN less than the full academic....so in this case I will go for upgrade.

You're slow but I wouldn't go as far as to say you were broken. VPC works correctly but is dog slow. Office is slow but I wouldn't say broken. ImageReady 3 (current) is slow but I wouldn't say it's broken. How many straws do you have because you've reached for a lot.

Hey genius, I mentioned the 3D text warp as mentioned in ThinkSecret BECAUSE THAT WAS THE ONLY PUBLIC INFO AVAILABLE so I wanted to inform all the readers that I DID NOT FIND THIS FEATURE. So they are up to par on the current feature set versus what they've read at a rumor site. UNDERSTAND NOW? Damn, pretty soon I;'ll have to have my daughter finish deabting becasue she's more you're level. Wait, she's not old enough to type yet...sorry :(
[quote] You expected the shadows to be hardcoded out of the pallettes? Why? That would not be following along with Aqua's guidelines. Like I showed you and told you again and again... you can group the pallettes together so there is no drop shadows between them.

Genius, intil you click on one, read above and re-read it again and again....
[quote] More verbal masturbation .. are you in Jr. High? Yes indeed if you was spouting off this nonsense IRL I would indeed tell you what a moron you was face to face. <hr></blockquote>
Sorry little boy, JR High was a very long time ago. Trying to base my age on my nick ain't gonna work because genius, it's a nickname and most nickname stay with you for years and years.
As for calling me a moron to my face face, I'd knock you square on your puck little ass.
[quote] From what I have read.. I am not the only one in this thread that thinks your a moron.. but you can be delusional all you want

Well a side fom the one post saying I was bullshitting the only other post said YOU AND I BOTH lost it. So, genius, you're notting reading and comprehending again.
[quote] Do you re-read your posts before you hit the "add reply" button?
You used the software expecting it to act like a final product. When it didn't .. you made silly comments like "You can tell I'm not impressed? Did I mention it was slow?"
Since when hasn't Photoshop betas been slow?
Complaining about features in a beta is one thing. Complaining about the responsiveness in it is another.
<hr></blockquote>
I'm not impressed is a silly comment? Oh do tell, how can that be silly? Adobe could very well release PS 7 as is (barring..) and charge the normal rates so an app that doesn't have many new features and it's as aquafied as I had hoped. So therefore, I'm not impressed. I was very impressed with 6.0, but then again, I don't want to have to walk you through everything so just take my word for it. Feature set is mininal and we all know X isn't itself a speeddemon and PS 7 being carbon X/9 I was expecting it to be a little more speedier. Why? Because I had a beta for 6.5, 6.0, 5.5 and yes, genius, you guessed it, they were faster. I know it will be faster but they have quite away to go to get it anywhere near 9, which is why I was expecting it to be a lot closer.
[quote] No that is my little pet name for you.. cause you argue like a woman. With no real reason or for-thought <hr></blockquote>
No it's for you, no it's for you, you're such a pussy. I argue like a women? Then that makes you a mentally challenged transsexual that only know how to nag, bitch, cry, kick, scream, and you yea, grab for straws.

I guess you're too stupid to notice the screencaps above. THEY HAVE DROPSHADOWS ONCE YOU CLICK ON A FREAKING PALETTE YOU MORON.

Heh no they don't. Not in the version *I* am using 7.0X043 Beta. When you have the palletes dock clicking on them or the tabs DO NOT produce a drop shadow around each pallete.
[quote]<strong>
Yes, they dock together and do not produce INDIVIDUAL shadows UNTIL you CLICK ON ONE. Them. like in my magical screen caps, THER SHADOWS MAGICALLY APPEAR.

Heh and again.. no they don't. Want me to take a SnapzPro movie of this so you can see?

Ok we know this.. but your STILL COMPARING A BETA TO A FINAL VERSION!!? Expecting a beta to be as fast as the final is silly and basically ignorant. And NONE of the Photoshop BETAS have ever been as fast as the final. 6.5, 6.0, 5.5? Wow you have been using Photoshop long. :rolleyes:

Look.. tabbed pallettes in Photoshop X. And LOOK when I choose a pallete.. no drop shadows!
How about that.

I can't help it if Red can't admit to being wrong. If he still claims that docked pallets show drop shadows after I proved the didn't in the video.. than I will drop it. It will be well known that he is a idiot and no one will believe a thing he has to say.

I tired to call a truce but genius boy got a ruffle in his panties and won't stop kicking. So, I have to present my rebuttal. But I do and have agreed that this thread has gotten out of hand.
(sinebaby, I didn't forget about ya :) ) But before I jump back into the pit with you I do have a question. I was able to get 2 palettes to link as you described but not sure how I did it. Can you explain how to do that to the palettes where the seemed to be joined? I use 3 palettes and only got the top 2 to join. I was humbly unaware of that feature and am plesantly surprised.

**** you dick. I shouldn't have posted the above if I knew you're fairy little ass wouldv'e played the "I'm still mad and he's an idiot" route. I was not wrong is saying the palettes cast shadows-they do. I was unaware THERE WAS an alternative. Which you never said "hey, try this and you'll see.." cause you are too much an asshole to do something like that. I figured it out BTW so piss off.

Kid chill out..
Just drag the pallettes to the bottom of another pallete. That will let you dock them. I like it better this way cause it keeps my pallete locations. ANd in OS X .. it doesn't show the Drop Shadows.

Do you have to literally dock them together into one mega-palette, or do you mean the behavior where if you drag one palette close enough to another it "snaps" it into place just below or above the next one (like in v6)?

Alright, alright, I'll chill :)
Yea I figured it out after I did the first one by accident. Not the best solution but MUCH better then dealing with the shadows. I still wish the same could happen with the top tool bar as the window fall under the shadow. I'm an artist so I'm gonna be nit-picky about sill stuff like this. I love X (otehr then it's speed which is why I use 9 mostly) but the shadow thing needs to be addressed. I've emailed Apple about the utility window coding should allow for adjoining windows.
Spell check is kinda cool. Anyone know why some fonts don't show up in X? I thought X was good with fonts. They all work in 9, but a good percentage don't show up when using Suitcase 10. Think it may be suitcase or X?
How do you set up fonts in X if I can;t get suitcase to work correctly? Also, any utility out to check fonts for X compatibilty?
