photoshop CS2



Just when you thought that Adobe cannot think of anymore functions to add to Photoshop, they manage to produce another souped up version of it. Photoshop CS2 was launched last week with an even more dazzling (and not to mention confusing) array of functions.

One of the most relevant new functions that me and my dearest compatriots at NUS would use is the Smart Objects function. When a layer is set as a smart object, it can be modified reversibly and without a loss in quality. In older versions, the "dumb" objects would become blurry and pixelated if they are reduced and enlarged again, but with the new function, the integrity of the layer remains intact. So you can tweak it as much as you want. What's even better about smart objects is that when it is duplicated, the different copies can be linked and changes can be made simultaneously on all these objects.

Other new functions include vanishing point, which makes placing objects in the correct perspective easier, and batch processing without affecting normal operations.

If anyone has a copy, pass it to me ok?
