What is the difference between "Photoshop" and "Adobe Photoshop"? Please I need help .
1 Answer
The word "Adobe"?
That word is the company owner of the product Photoshop.
The same as "Ford" Mustang. "Microsoft" Windows, "Apple" iPhone, "MacDonald" BigMac.
But as it is the most recognizable program of its type, many people use the word as a... verb.
"Let's do some Photoshopping on the image", "Let's Photoshop this" Meaning that they want to retouch an image.
Adobe
is the name of the company that makesPhotoshop
. When you hear people use the wordPhotoshop
, it refers to that application. There is alsoPhotoshop Elements
, or at least there used to be, and that is like a lite version ofPhotoshop
... Or again, it used to be (as far as I know). Not sure if they perhaps changed its direction or something, but I'm pretty sure it was like a stripped down PS but geared for the "casual" user who didn't need all the bells and whistles. Possibly cheaper too.:)
