Photoshop 20th Anniversary
January 26, 2010 by Mike Wong • Comments Off
20 years can go by fast. Doesn't seem that long ago really, but maybe that is just an indicator that I'm getting old(er). I started playing with Photoshop back in 1995, but it was first developed in 1987 and then later sold to and then released as version 1.0 for the Mac by Adobe in 1990 [source]. But let's get back to the present. In celebration of this landmark anniversary, Adobe and NAPP have a special event planned and from what I hear, you're not going to want to miss it.
Photoshop 20th Anniversary! Celebrate with Adobe and NAPP
For 20 years, the world has used industry-leading Adobe Photoshop software to transform creative inspiration into nearly everything we see, from magazine covers to medical devices to city skylines. That's why, every day, Adobe is inspired to create the innovative technologies that build more speed, intelligence, and magic into each new Photoshop product—so you can continue to turn your creative vision into reality.
Adobe is kicking off a year-long celebration of Photoshop's 20th anniversary starting with an Adobe and National Association of Photoshop Professionals star-studded celebration, live at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre in San Francisco, February 18th, 7:30pm.
