Regardless, of the small challenges it comes with, I would definitely recommend Adobe PhotoShop to anyone who is looking for a complete solution for creative designs, digital media designs, photo editing, etc. However, the person who I would recommend to should have some sort of experience with highly skilled editing softwares as in my opinion Adobe PhotoShop is not for Beginners.

Adobe PhotoShop can be used for various purpose as before uploading any images on social media we can add final touch by using this software, before uploading any photo in any educational institution we can edit our photo to make it more professional, despite of these there are few cons of it which can be improved as it can be made with simplified UI so that beginner can also use it with ease, the toolbar can be made in more detailed way.

Photoshop is a great multi-purpose tool for any photographer, graphic designer, or marketing team. If you are working with lots of photos, maintaining a website, or even producing videos, Photoshop is an invaluable tool. If you have a very narrowly focused job that only works with vectors, or never have the need to self-produce graphics or manipulate still assets, Photoshop wouldn't be necessary.

This program is perfect for any image-manipulating scenario as long as the individual understands some basic image editing concepts such as drop shadow or gradient. The Photoshop program makes it easy to identify the correct size for an image for different applications from print, web, or social media platforms. This streamlines the creative process.

My overall experience with photoshop is amazing. Photoshop is now part of me even though i explore other emerging softwares to see what they have better than photoshop. Truely some have wonderful tools but which can not overshadow photoshop. As professional designer who alway want the best for my clients, do few things in other softwares and continue in photoshop even though photoshop can equally do them but not the best way for me. This doesn't apply to other professional. Generally i will choose photoshop any day over photoshop.

PhotoShop is not just a software, it's a verb.

PhotoShop is best suited for photo editing, generative AI image creation and I guess it would be less appropriate for things like vector graphics creation, presentations, logo design, video editing, vector animation (like after effects)

The specific Scenario about Adobe PhotoShop use is that Sometimes I have to use Photoshop for retouching meeting pictures, training, sports day, and tour pictures of our staff. Object removal and adding objects in these pictures as well as setting brightness, contrasts, highlights, levels, and darks are the main areas that I love to solve within minutes in Adobe PhotoShop.

For photo editing and manipulation etc, PhotoShop is unmatched and has the best features to tackle the task. That's the reason it's industry standard. For UI design and graphic design, it could add some more tools to make it more powerful and easy to use, especially with its vector creating/handling capabilities.

PhotoShop has a great deal of elements to assist you with making the best pictures effortlessly. With assistance of layers, you can make changes in the future easily, so in the event that a task changes the varieties, it's truly simple to fix. Likewise, you can cooperate on numerous records and spot the layers starting with one then onto the next (helpful on greater undertakings). With that, there are a few strong things you can do with this instrument from simple to complex. One thing I appreciate doing is discovering a few new deceives to make pictures truly pop on YouTube and do them myself on my best pictures.

According to my personal experience, Adobe Photoshop is really well suited in all cases. For instance, if you are running any company and you need digital media marketing for your company and for marketing, you will run paid campaign ads. For ads, you need stunning social media posts, and these posts you can design using Adobe Photoshop.

PhotoShop has a lot of features to help you make the best images with ease. With help of layers, you can make changes in the future with ease, so if a project changes the colors, it's really easy to fix. Also, you can work together on multiple files and place the layers from one to another (useful on bigger projects). With that, there are some powerful things you can do with this tool from easy to complex. One thing I enjoy doing is finding some new tricks to make images really pop on YouTube and do them myself on my best images.

I use Adobe PhotoShop to do practically all of my business from my home in Turkey. Many customers find the cost of Adobe PhotoShop to be prohibitive, thus they turn to substitute alternatives and illegally downloaded pirated software. Regulations like torrents, sales, and price increases lead to a number of financial issues. Change can be advantageous.

If you’re working for a web firm company you absolutely want to have Adobe Photoshop as one of your tools. It’s one of the best photo editing apps out there and also can work very nicely with illustrator and InDesign. If you haven’t tried out Adobe Photoshop yet what are you waiting for?

Adobe Photoshop is great for not only photo editing but creating beautiful images for a variety of platforms. I have used Photoshop to create designs from business card size to billboards. I have touched up photos and created web images. Photoshop has so many features that I feel like I have barely scratched the surface. It is perfect for social media as well as printed pieces.

It is handy for people who are working in the social media industry or as graphic designers. You can design your images like how you would like to do it with its impressive color pattern.

A Legendary Tool for Photo Manipulation and Photo Retouch

Rating: 9 out of 10
May 27, 2022
It's been 8+ years since I've been using Adobe Photoshop and found some interesting points. It is a great tool for Photo Manipulation. Here are a lot of features available in Adobe Photoshop. While cropping images pen tool works really smooth. Layer Management and grouping them is a big relief. I have used photoshop for creating wireframes and mockups. Now more efficient tools are available in the market but at that time it really worked for me. As for disadvantages: It's a bit expensive and requires a powerful system.

Anything related to editing, Adobe PhotoShop is the answer!

If you have to work on manipulating an existing image or create a new image (be it software UI or graphics for any other thing), Adobe PhotoShop is the tool you need to use. It is so powerful that you can literally achieve anything. I have used it extensively in the 1 and a half years that I worked with it.

It provides an incredible array of options, from the kind of visual workspace that one prefers to the extensive library of editing tools that can leave one satisfied with the result. In the four or so years that I've been using it, I have found it to be most reliable in allowing me to edit just about any image, to make my work look like that of a professional.

Adobe PhotoShop's features have improved over time to become the leader in image design. I honestly cannot think of another software to use in its place. PhotoShop is so significantly important to design and marketing that the work itself has become iconic. For example, we all say "that's so photoshopped" whenever we see an image that seems manipulated. This is because Adobe PhotoShop's features are top tier. With that being said, I wouldn't use PhotoShop for all designs because Adobe already has other programs such as InDesign for template creation, Illustrator for other design work, Premiere for video, etc. Adobe has it all.

If you want to give your posters a nice finish. Adobe PhotoShop is the best. You can give it some texture or noise. Add scratches and little marks that make your digital art look more realistic. What I would nit recommend is making your Lay-out with Adobe PhotoShop. Aligning and kerning text is a headache in this App.
