Now celebrating its 25th year, Photoshop has come a long way from its
beginnings in 1987 when Thomas Knoll, PhD student from the University of
Michigan, started working on a computer program designed for his Macintosh
computer, which included showing grayscale photographs on a monochrome
monitor for his thesis on the processing of digital images. He named the program
“Display” and it got positive reviews from Thomas’ brother, John Knoll. John
Knoll was then connected with film industry leaders on computer graphics
production, Industrial Light and Magic (ILM), and American Academy Awards
winners for motion picture and visual arts.
On his brothers’ recommendation, Thomas took a 6-month sabbatical from his
studies to develop what was to become the greatest innovation in the realm of
digital color editing. The 6-month sibling collaboration and creative
brainstorming yielded a full-fledged image-editing program, which was
originally named “ImagePro”. Attempts to register the invention; however,
encountered an obstacle; the name ImagePro had already been taken by another
company, so Thomas renamed his baby “Photoshop”. Later that same year, he
contracted Barneyscan, a small scanner manufacturing company, whose job was
to be the distributor for 200 software copies, which already included color
editing features with deliveries of their slide scanners. These features were later
stripped from the first Adobe-delivered version.
While Thomas was busy writing code, back in school in Ann Arbor, Michigan,
John traveled south of California to Silicon Valley, the leading hub of giant
high-tech corporations and silicon chip innovators, for the purpose of
introducing the program. He conducted product demonstrations to Russell
Brown, who held a function of Adobe’s art director, and to Apple company
engineers, which were both a success. Brown did not waste even half a breath;
Adobe turned around and bought the distribution license in September 1988. In
February 1990, the first version of Photoshop 1.0 was designed for Macintosh.
With each new Adobe version, improved color handling features swiftly
evolved, with innovations incorporated into the program. Photoshop was quickly
catapulted to fame and became known as the gold standard in the digital color
editing industry.
Now, Photoshop enjoys an almost exclusive popularity in color editing,
changing in part of speech, and has become a neologism.
Adobe Photoshop - the program (noun)
That image needs to be “photoshopped” before release. (verb)
Please do not pass any “photoshopped” images for your assignment.
(adjective)
Even with these, Photoshop demonstrates its versatility and more so in color
image editing.
