Open the other photo and drag’n’drop the extracted image onto it.

You might also try spending some time with the manual, or the help file (F1). This is pretty basic stuff.

And it’s Photoshop. That’s the name of the application.

Adobe is the name of the company that produces the application.

Maybe on the pirated version it just says Adobe…aaaargh!

A LOT of people refer to Photoshop as "Adobe"…

I fear it’s just something you have to get used to, otherwise you will go mad continually correcting people on an apparent technicality.

If enough people refer to the app that way, I think the company will have no choice but to rename it, after all that’s how language evolves.

Agreed, but Adobe did rename Acrobat Reader to simply Adobe Reader.

But the application’s STILL not called "Adobe" Bob.

Absolutely, and I cringe every time someone refers to it as "Adobe." You kind of know right there that you’re dealing with a real newbie.

And my original admonishment wasn’t meant to crush so much as it was meant to set the original poster straight about the naming convention.

Can’t say the same about my self-deleted post, though.
