Lets be frank with you all: Photoshop is probably one of those few popular applications without which the current contours of web topography could not have been drawn. It is simply the best image editing application and therefore, it is quite obvious that there would be thousands of websites out there who are making regular posts on it, highlighting its different aspects and often publishing Photoshop tutorials for website design.

Barrage of Criticisms: But as fate would have it, fame is always followed by constant criticisms. Therefore, if you bump on a post, which makes predictions about the impending doom of Photoshop, you should not get wonder struck. Obviously there are reasons enough to draw them such conclusion and the reasons are: -

• It gets crashed all the time (but it is PC which has to be blamed for that)
• It comes with high price tag.
• No right click option for cut and paste job.

These are some issues that can drive you crazy. But before scraping the importance of Photoshop altogether, you need to ask yourself whether you will be able to survive in online industry or even in print industry without the existence of Photoshop.

Why You Should Stick To Photoshop: There is no denying of the fact that some people are having some issues with Photoshop but that does not mean that its importance has taken a nosedive all of a sudden. Though Corel has already launched Photo-Paint to give users an alternative option, it is stall lagging behind PhotoShop in terms of usability.

It has Become A Name: – This is something unique of its kind. As the name Google is included as a verb in Dictionary, Photoshop is included in the Wiktionary, which is certainly not an average feat by any means. Even images are often tagged as “That Is So Photoshopped” to make the users aware that it is original. This simply authorizes the importance of Photoshop in every sphere of our lives.

But you should not take the popularity of Photoshop for granted. In fact, it is the relentless and the painstaking efforts of the people at Photoshop that has helped it to win the love, admiration and the trust of its users.
