No issues. EXR? Works fine. -The AI generative fill feature is really handy for removing unwanted elements in my photos. Have tried alternative software, but none of them get it as right as Photoshop does. -Actually pretty enjoyable to use and learn. Interface is easy to navigate, so I usually have no issues finding whatever tool I need to use. Cons \-Subscription cost is absurd for anyone not wanting to use it professionally. Adobe should consider following in other software's footsteps, and provide an option to buy a version of Photoshop outright (even if the version purchased gets no update support). -Photoshop project files can often be quite large. Would be nice if they provided better compression. Review Source CTB Connor T. B.

February 5, 2025 5.0 I am heavily reliant on Photoshop on a daily basis for photo editing and thumbnail making. I can also integrate photoshop files with other Adobe products which is very helpful.

I've been using it every week and it's honestly fun, especially since I finally took a good training to actually learn how it works, find out about shortcuts and all kinds of stuff. Pros What I like the most is how powerful it is, like I can edit skin tones precise, and get these colors that I don't really see anywhere.

Pros I first began using Adobe Photoshop over 20 years ago while working as a graphic designer. I found it to be a powerful tool in retouching up photos or creating an image from scratch. I felt the retouching tools were superior and the use of working with layers made it a simpler process. Cons While initially using Photoshop I felt there was more of a learning curve and had to invest more time in mastering some of it capabilities. It felt a little overwhelming at first but with playing around it became easier to pick up new techniques to using it.
