"Adobe Photoshop" is 25th anniversary on February 19, 2015In celebration of having celebrated, Creative Suite Worldwide Design EvangelistTerry WhiteMr"Photoshop 1.0"We actually broadcasted a movie on Adobe TV. The state of image processing with Photoshop 1.0 released in 1990 can be felt to be happy content which is hard to believe for users dealing with the latest edition, and happiness living in modern times.

Terry White Demonstrates Photoshop 1.0 - YouTube


Photoshop 1.0 was released only for the Mac version, there was no Windows version. Photoshop was compatible with Windows version 2.5 or later.


To start Photoshop 1.0 that only supports OS at that time you need to use the emulator. The OS operated by the emulator was released from Apple in 1991 "System 7"is.


According to White, Photoshop 1.0 was released on a floppy disk. I feel the times.


Finally I started Photoshop 1.0.


First, let's open the image in Photoshop 1.0.


The opened image "JenniferInParadise.tif" is that Thomas Knoll, one of the developers of Photoshop, was used when presenting Photoshop 1.0 to Adobe. Mr. White also just asked, so I do not know if it is 100% truth or not.


It should be noted that the tool icons arranged on the left side. If you've used Photoshop, you will soon see which icons mean which tool. Icon design is that it has hardly changed for 25 years.


The file menu is also familiar things such as "new" "open". Since digital cameras were not yet popularized, images could not be captured without a scanner.


Basic operations such as "cut" "copy" "paste" are lined up in the edit menu.


The interesting thing in the mode menu is that CMYK color is already installed. Mr. White said, "I think there is one reason for Photoshop's success in the CMYK color: users can use their PCs without using expensive equipmentColor separationIt was truly amazing to be able to do it. "


It is possible to adjust brightness, contrast, color balance, etc. from the image menu. However, there is no tone curve.


We started image processing actually when we introduced basic functions. Selection tool to select the surroundings of the woman almost.


Next, I will try to copy a woman and paste it on the left side, but since there is no preview function, the woman will not be displayed until I copy it.


Completion of copy and paste. It is now one of the basic operations, but he seems to be surprised to jump from the chair at that time.


When you rotate the pasted image, Mr. White will inform you of notes. In Photoshop 1.0, there is a "one step return" function to return the operation, but only one step can be returned. That means you can not go back two times. If you mistakenly operate while operating the mouse to do "one step back" you will never be able to return again, so you had to be really careful.


Since "one step back" function does not work only once, many users saved every time they operate. If you save it even if you misoperate twice consecutively you can get a chance if you load it.


Also, there was no layer function in Photoshop 1.0. After working on various things, it was impossible to move or erase the pasted woman. Mr. White said, "It was Photoshop 3.0 and later that the layer function was installed, can you imagine there is no layer, is it frightening just to imagine?"


Returning to work, next level correction. Adjust with mouse, but no change in image. You need to click on "Preview" button to check adjusted image.


Clicking the "Preview" button brightened the selected part. If you press "OK" as it is, correction is finished, but please be careful as it will not be able to return many times with the function "one step return" function.


After clicking the image and releasing the selection range, processing is completed. Even if you click "Return 1 step" in this state, just canceling the selection range is canceled, it is impossible to return it before processing. Although it may be fairly severe, Photoshop which can use the state-of-the-art processing technology at hand can be a revolutionary software for many designers.


Close the image and then open the JPEG image, but the image you want to open in the list is not displayed. Rather than being not displayed, since Photoshop 1.0 was not released yet, the JPEG format was not yet born, so you can not read the file.


Opened a tif file that shoots the statue of liberty.


Select an area other than the Statue of Liberty with the automatic selection tool ......


Expand another image taken of the American flag.


Select all the flags and copy them ... ...


Paste it on the background of the Statue of Liberty.


Next level correction. When level correction ends and selection range is released, we will pay close attention as we can never return.


Next is the insertion of characters using text commands.


After selecting the icon and clicking the image, the character input window will be launched. Mr. White is also nicolle.


Enter characters in the box at the bottom of the window and change the font.


I change the size of the character, but since there is no preview function, I will do this completely.


When you click "OK", the selected character is displayed in the image.


Take the red color of the national flag with the eyedropper tool, apply it to the letter, move it a little.


After unselecting it is like this. It seems that the inserted characters have the same resolution as the image. If you notice a typo in the future, you will need to redo the image from the beginning again. Please advise why.
