Hi All!

Exactly two years ago I gave an advise for the people to save money on upgrades.

Sometimes things are becoming so exposed to the extent that I am fully stunned how people like Chris Cox lies to the people. In this thread:

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.graphics.apps.photoshop/ browse_thread/thread/16916634608e1ede/4536991bacd21368?lnk=g st&q=%22Mohamed+Al-Dabbagh%22+premier+functionality& rnum=1&hl=en#4536991bacd21368

I explained the ways of the next major upgrades of Adobe Photoshop. I may quote some of what has been written there:

___QUOTE____

Even if the person who conveyed the news to me was incorrect, then all facts indicate that Adobe Photoshop will definitely transfer to 3D arena, because of the fact that they need to upgrade themselves. Inspite the fact that there are still many things to accomplish like lockability and linkability of spot channels to layers, and the full operation of filters in 16-bit mode, exachromatic separation process (CMYKOG) process, halftone preview (preview of actual offsett output at certain angles and line frequency), and other few things. Adobe Photoshop have some choices to invent new ideas that justify upgrade (either major or minor) and as follows:

1- Make Photoshop a real hybrid between raster and vector: This choice will make the Photoshop working like the way Macromedia Fireworks works like a real hybrid between vector and raster. Working in this direction will require Adobe to make a great sacrifice by shrinking the role of Adobe Illustrator. That means that Photoshop may add all tools necessary to eliminate Illustrator. This is a little bit hard task but people at Adobe can do it.

2- Make Photoshop 3D enabled software: This choice is not impossible and is the most likely choice to expand by a company like Adobe. Adobe has always adapted good ideas of other parties. Incorporating 3D in image retouching software is not weird (remember Fractal Design Painter)! Also, 3D for Adobe Photoshop upgrade policy is terrific! I mean in terms of dropping features in the eyes of buyers! Also, it is the right time to cheaply buy software that were parts of out-of- business (but great) software. These software couldn’t continue in business simply because they lacked the genius thinking of Adobe, not because they are not good (from technical point of view)! Also, expanding towards 3D capabilities along with the prepress quality delivered by Photoshop, along with high speeds provided by computer systems will enable designer to boost creation in a completely new direction.

3- Borrow some Adobe Premier functionality into Photoshop: This choice is not impossible but it would be largely useless for designers.

This link will give you an idea about the validity of updating policy I stated in that article. What really annoyed me is the way Chris Cox tried to emerge me as a liar or even bad speculator.

He was wrong! He should appologize for that!

I have read your laments regarding PS for a few years and I appreciate your comments regarding features. Your arguments have been cogent and I could imagine that some of your previous requests might be feasible. However, at this particular point, the post above seems over the top. Call it my impoverished software developer’s imagination, but I don’t see how it can be done without overall damage within the prevailing market. PS would turn into MaxBloated software with features that so very few users would ever use.

At some point breaking features into separate packages is most wise, and Adobe’s strategy for creating integration (open,import,save as,export, smart objects) seems a very, very good idea.

Dozens, if not hundreds, of people have been insulted by Chris Cox, including myself. There is no particular reason, IMHO, that he should apologize to you and not all the countless others.

As someone who respects you, I suggest that you wear it as a badge of honor for the time being. Perhaps you will meet him in an informal setting and find that he is not as cruel a person as he appears.
