Just when you'd gotten used to Photoshop 5.0, along comes Photoshop 5.5 with a whopping $129 upgrade tag. Is it worth the money? I'd say yes, especially if you're churning out images for the Web. Adobe has incorporated its formerly separate Image Ready tool (now in version 2.0) into Photoshop 5.5. The two programs work smoothly together, although they are still two distinct programs that you must access individually. Their marriage makes for lots of great new features. In fact, the Save for Web feature alone is worth the price of admission. If the Web isn't your bag, you'll find nifty new masking features and other improvements that'll make your high-end imagery sparkle. I was impressed with the beta version I tested. Of course on a related note, I recommend checking out Gimp for windows, and I have to say that it's an excellent port of an excellent piece of free software. FREE being the key word. |
