More to Love About Curves
Advanced Photoshoppers are well aware of the importance of the Curves control. While there are lots of ways to change image density in Photoshop, none really comes close to the numerical precision of Curves. Even so, many artists rely more on Levels because its dialog features a built-in histogram - a statistical analysis of the brightness levels of all of the pixels in an image or a selection area. Photoshop CS3 adds the histogram to the Curves dialog. We applaud this move, but we wish Adobe had gone one step further and allowed the histogram to update itself on the fly.
Color overlays for individual channels and an integrated histogram are welcome additions to the Curves dialog. In this case, we isolated and modified the red channel.

In my opinion, Apple TV should support for more video formats (for which we do not need any helps from video converter) and include personal video recording functions also.

I agree with both camp on the subject of breaking pages. May be a extra option to chose between long or short pages would please both sides..

The main reason that we run multi-page articles when the pages are image-heavy is to ease the page-load times for those poor folks who are not yet on broadband. We purposely use fairly large images to make sure that our articles are well-illustrated, but we don't want to strangle slow dial-up connections. Hey, if you're on broadband, what's a few extra insta-clicks between friends..?

If I am on a slow connection I would rather wait for 2-3 long page loads than 15 medium-long page loads. It is much less frustrating to wait 2 minutes 2-3 times than to wait 30 seconds, read, click, wait 30, read, click, wait 30, click.....you get my point.
just my opinion. great preview!

it's not about giving you the best reading/user experience. This is about ads paying the bills. It's not about quick loading times either. There's a business side to all this creativity as well. Revenue. You wankers, stop wining about the ads between the free review or go somewhere else where you can pay to get the same information without the advertisement interruptions. To all others - keep up the creative work in this hard business world ;-) Cheers. M.

Seriously? If you really cared about dial-up users as your excuse for short annoying pages, then would you really have all those ads.. those ads are probably 3 - 4 times as large as your article pages..

Hey, anonymous, get real. If there are no ads, there would be no web site -- and then where would you complain?
In any case, back to the main reason for these comments: The really good Photoshop story. Does anyone know when we'll be able to get our hands on the final version? What it'll cost? If we can just buy Photoshop without having to buy everything else?

Brekaing up an article over 15 pages was really annoying, especially since they were short pages. It would have been nice to have 2 or 3 pages.
Good review though. It will be nice to see what else CS3 has in store.

David, your peek under the hood is well-timed and VERY appreciated! Test-driving the CS3 beta didn't really get me going, but now I am actually excited about upgrading. Can you do a follow-up on Illustrator, please?

Wow. Thank you for a well written article with a lot of coverage of what's new in Photoshop CS3. Adobe (& the old macromedia ppl) have been very busy making this a significant upgrade. I personally am looking forward to seeing how much of this translates into the new Adobe Dreamweaver CS3. C'mon Adobe, make your announcements! :)

re "C'mon Adobe, make your announcements!"
well they have, sorta. CS3 announcements were made on the 22nd March but it was in a whisper room at webDU. Sorry, can't share they made everyone in a jam packed room sign NDAs. Think the official announcements are due tomorrow.
