This will be of greater interest to programmers than 'umble users like me, but I see that v. 1 of Photoshop has been released into the wild.

Might be fun for those who know about these things to take a peek inside and at the works: http://www.computerhistory.org/adobe-ps-source/

That's awesome.

Photoshop is one of the groundbreaking applications that really helped the GUI take off. (IMO.)

I guess after the Mac Paint code was released it was only a matter of time. It would be nice if a lot more stuff was opened up.

I wonder if anyone's doing anything with the old code and if any side projects will result?

I like the review of the source code and its lack of documentation: fabulous rave.

In "The Deep" special edition commentary, they mention using Photoshop development code at ILM to do the "Water Snake" footage. Cool beans!
