http://www.mydamnchannel.com/xml/mdc_embed.swf?episode=379 Strap on your stupid., people. This week we learn about paths and masks. I once made a path, but now I have unfulfilled dreams, too. The description for this video is classic. Does anyone know how to cancel an eBay auction? → Read More
I’ve somehow learned more about Photoshop from watching these videos than anything else. Absolutely hilarious. Episode 1 Episode 2 You Suck at Photoshop #3 [via BB] → Read More
[photopress:2192321716_b26f11f201_o.jpg,full,center] We’ve been talking quite a bit about this new MacBook Air, or whatever Steve’s going to call it (I like MacBook Shuffleâ„¢), and we’ve seen many mock-ups, but this is my favorite so far. I have a feeling that if we do see a teeny-tiny MacBook, it’ll definitely look something like this, borrowing design cues from the… → Read More
Hate opening Photoshop, that resource hog, just to resize an image? Me, too! That’s why I use Picnik, an online photo editor that uses the magic of Web 2.0 to—get this—edit photos. It can grab photos from your Flickr, Facebook, Picassa, Photobucket and Webshots account, or edit photos you have on your computer. There’s a premium version, too, that, for $25 a year, gets you… → Read More
Don’t get mad or anything, but technology may have killed photography. No, not photography in the “pose drunk for Facebook” sense (that’s not likely to go away any time soon), but in the “Robert Capa/I’m showing you the truth/it’s an art form” sense. That’s what Newsweek says this week, lamenting the influx of reality-altering software like… → Read More
And you thought this whole Web 2.0 thing was a fad. Adobe’s CEO said yesterday that, in five to 10 years, all of its applications, including Photoshop, will be available to use online. Not only that, but that by the time that happens, Adobe said it will have completely shifted its resources from developing desktop applications like we see now to online-only apps. No more multi-gig installs… → Read More
Want to get your hands on Photoshop-killer, Pixelmator? Of course you do, you Mac OS X fanboy. I hear there are a few torrents on public trackers somewhere. Don’t know where though. Absolutely no idea. Enjoy. Official Site → Read More
Something different than the standard Photoshop layout! Crazy! On one of the underground torrent sites I visit daily, I came across a new Mac App that had been downloaded a bunch of times. It’s called Pixelmator and it’s an upcoming competitor that’s going to blow Adobe Photoshop out of the water. Right now it’s in closed beta, so this leaked version is still experimental. → Read More
Adobe Photoshop owners should be aware that there are a handful of flaws that could make your PC vulnerable to hackers. One such flaw is known to attack CS2, CS3 and Elements 5.x when users open distorted PNG graphic files. The flaw was discovered in a stack-based buffer overflow bug in a Photoshop Format Plugin involved in handling PNG files and was discovered by white hat hacker Marsu. The same… → Read More
Just a few weeks after its New York event, Adobe has finally started shipping Photoshop CS3. The suite’s new mascot is unofficially called Creep-o the Clown, but that shouldn’t deter you from enjoying all the new Universal Binary goodness. Yes, if you haven’t already heard, all CS3 products for the Mac now natively support Intel processors. No more running like molasses! Other… → Read More
Adobe will host a lavish New York City event tomorrow to announce that they’re announcing the pricing and availability of Adobe CS3, which includes a version of PhotoShop that natively runs on Intel-based Macs. (If you haven’t had the pleasure of using PhotoShop on an Intel Mac consider yourself lucky.) Too bad Amazon just leaked all of the pertinent info. The top of the line… → Read More
from photos in-camera. Suh-wheat. We haven’t yet gotten our hands on a demo unit, but the smartipants over at Laptop did, and apparently they love this thing. The only thing wrong that they could find was audible machine noise when the 3x optical zoom was actuated. Really, that’s trivial. Besides the basics of post-photo manipulation, the camera includes HP’s “slimming… → Read More
You’ve got your MacBook or Mac Mini or Mac Pro, or whatever Intel-based Mac you decided on, and that’s great. The transition from PowerPC to Intel processors went much better than anyone could have expected, and Apple kicked the conversion of its own software to universal binary in almost no time. The one glaring issue you can’t turn a blind eye to, though, is the lack of an… → Read More
This one made me laugh. Worth 1000 is holding an a Photoshop contest to create Apple’s next product. Lots of funny stuff here, like the Mac-Chine, an Apple branded washing-machine. And the iDied Apple casket, complete with DVR playback of lifetime highlights. My favorite though is the iSuppository above. Not the best Photoshopping of the bunch, but its “deeper experience”… → Read More
