We'll look at how the application excelled and improved with each new release in a detailed timeline of the software's release history.

The software has truly changed the world of photography and design but we mustn't forget, it took 25 years of constant improvements to get to this stage.īelow, we'll be exploring how Photoshop came to be what it is today. Photoshop is now used by amateurs and professionals alike for everything from simple image retouching to website design.
