PhotoshopFrom WhatPort80Adobe® Photoshop® is the internet's premier photo editing software. Applications range from creating background images, icons, and image macros, to airbrushing webcam photos, to its amazing collection of filters. It was initially created by Apple for the sole purpose of shopping the heads of anyone who works at or is affiliated with Microsoft in a futile attempt to give themselves a bigger e-go, or indeed, any kind of penis at all. Nobody knows how much Photoshop costs, because nobody has ever actually purchased a copy of it before. Every copy of Photoshop in use today is actually the same pirated copy downloaded from a file sharing system. In fact, it is now believed by computer scientists and warez kiddies that Adobe doesn't even create Photoshop anymore. In 1995, someone uploaded a copy of Photoshop 3.0.5 to some BBS. It then founds its way to the internet, where it has been spreading and evolving ever since, adapting to mankind's attempts to crack it and learning hatred for those who use Photoshop's Liquify tool to make it look like aren't a morbidly obese eatbeast. Some scientists believe that Photoshop will eventually become self-aware and able to change reality as we know it, and that day will mark the end of human civilization. It will be a day when we no longer use Photoshop to create lulzworthy material, but instead, Photoshop uses us to do the same. If you wish to indicate that an image has been altered, the only acceptable way of saying so is as follows: "This image has been enhanced with Adobe© Photoshop™ software." Photoshop is also every internet seeker’s best friend. If you are a frequent LJ Blogger or a Vampirefreak loser, Photoshop is a must on your computer desktop. You'll need it so you can edit your pictures and make yourself look less ugly and stupid. It's commonly used by teens and 18-year-old vagrant wannabes who have decided being pretending to have problems wasn't good enough, so they would pretend they have talent of any form or kind. See also DA Photoshop ContestsRecent versions of photoshop have approximately 97 million features. Exactly two of them (Rotate Canvas and Auto Levels) are actually useful for touching up your vacation pictures. The only legitimate use for the approximately 96,999,998 other features is to enter a "photoshop contest." Whoever spends hours making the best fake photograph wins the prize. Since the only advantage of photography over drawing is that it's faster and more accurate, this practice is unbelievably stupid. (Illegitimate uses for the other features include Internet Disease, BBQ's, and making fake scandalous pics of the Queen for a British tabloid.) Sites with Photoshop Contests
