With each new release of Photoshop, Adobe manages both to satisfy the expectations of existing users and to pull a few magic features out of its hat. Version 6 is no exception. Powerful vector editing and masking, improved layer controls, layer styles, incredible typographic control, new Web publishing tools, and a cleaner, more accessible interface are already making version 5.5, itself a groundbreaker, look like ancient history. Photoshop's new vector features provide even more control when compositing photographic images. You can use the vector drawing tools simply to create polygons and custom shapes, but they can also act as layer clipping paths--vector masks that hide or reveal image areas in underlying layers. Editable layer effects such as drop shadow and glow were introduced in version 5.5; in version 6, they have been renamed layer styles. New options include satin, stroke and color, gradient, and pattern overlay. The layer styles dialogue box provides much more control--bevel and emboss has five style options, as well as adjusters for technique, depth, direction, size, soften, angle, attitude, gloss, contour, highlight mode, opacity--and that's not all of them. As the name suggests, layer styles can easily be saved and applied to other layers. You can enter and edit text directly onto the layer and set style attributes from the new tool options bar. Photoshop 6 seems to have benefited from some of InDesign's superb typographic tools, with character and paragraph palettes providing precise control. Web imaging tools have been revamped, with layer-based slicing now available from within Photoshop itself, and a major overhaul of ImageReady introducing weighted optimization, rollover styles, and tweened animation. If you want the best image editing software that money can buy, look no further. --Ken McMahon

 Intuitiveness at 100% opaque December 1, 2006
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I just can't learn this application. Coming from a Powerpoint world, this seems to be just the most obtuse application I've ever come across. Even simple things like making a layer a solid color (any color!) seems to require special skills. The help function is entirely useless. I just don't refer to it anymore. This application seems to assume you already know how to use it. Tremendously high learning curve, at least for those of us coming from the user-friendly Windows environment. And the help you find online seems to refer to a myriad of different interfaces and menu layouts, since Adobe seemingly changes everything with every new version. Yuck.
No tech support September 29, 2004

There is, apparently, no tech support for this product. It works fine, when it works. Photomerge, the only thing I am interested in, drifts in and out. When it is out there is no help to find out why, or how to get it to work again. I would never buy this product again.
I am extremely computer literate, but this product is impossible.

I thought that this was one of the greatest softwares I had Bought after Photoshop 5. THat was untill photoshop 7 came out. Personally I would skip the savings and go for the good stuff with Photoshop7. Almost the same as 6 except that there is a history function that allows you to go back as many steps as you need. There are an uncountable amount of new features that are so easy to use I was blown away.
 Good product, but not the only one. January 7, 2003

This is definitely a good product, but I still like Fireworks better! Why? It's much more user-friendly than Photoshop, and so far there's nothing that I haven't been able to do with Fireworks (Macromedia product).
The best. July 15, 2002

If your into doing simple things for websites like me, this is the way to go. Easily create dazzling effects by simply selecting which part of the image you would like to add a filter too, then click and wallah!This program definetly needs Eye Candy 4000 to accompany it.
