Adobe delays Photoshop.com, CS4 upgrades
Published: 12 Nov 2008 12:03 GMT
Adobe has delayed by a few weeks the release of some upgrades to its Photoshop.com online service and to its high-end Photoshop Creative Suite 4 software.
The upcoming Photoshop site upgrades include features to import address-book entries from Hotmail, Yahoo Mail and Gmail to improve photo-sharing; an uploading tool to synchronise software on a user's PC with the version stored online; and new pricing options.
The upgrades had been due on Tuesday but now will go live "later this month", Adobe said in a statement on Monday night.
Also delayed is the Photoshop Creative Suite 4 (CS4) Configurator, a tool to let users create customised control panels for the image-editing software.
Competition
Win a Yoggie Gatekeeper Card Pro
Gatekeeper Card Pro is designed to protect laptops in and out of the office. Enter soon though, as the competition ends on 17 November
Configurator had been due in October but, together another new CS4 option — the Pixel Bender filter gallery — won't debut until later in November, John Nack, senior product manager for Photoshop, said in a blog post.
Pixel Bender is a technology enabling high-performance special effects that Adobe hopes will be easier to use than earlier plug-in filter technology.
"We decided to give both tools a little extra bake time, so look for them to appear on Adobe Labs within the next two weeks," Nack said. "Also stay tuned for a Camera Raw update for CS4 that'll include a number of nice little surprises."
