Η νέα έκδοση του Photoshop την οποία η Adobe διαθέτει αποκλειστικά πλέον μέσω συνδρομής, κυκλοφόρησε πριν 2 ημέρες και σύμφωνα με πληροφορίες δεν έκανε καθόλου δύσκολη τη ζωή των πειρατών.

Όπως γίνεται αναφορά σε ιστοσελίδες του εξωτερικού, το Photoshop CC "έσπασε" σε μια μόλις ημέρα και ήδη έχει κάνει την εμφάνιση του στα torrents. Η συγκεκριμένη εξέλιξη ίσως να μην ήταν αναμενόμενη τουλάχιστον σε τόσο γρήγορο χρονικό διάστημα αφού ένας από τους στόχους της πρόσφατης κίνησης από την Adobe στο να μεταφέρει τις κορυφαίες της εφαρμογές στο cloud και το συνδρομητικό μοντέλο, είναι η καταπολέμηση της πειρατείας.

Η πειρατική έκδοση του Photoshop CC κάνει χρήση της offline λειτουργίας της εφαρμογής η οποία ζητά τη σύνδεση με τους servers της Adobe για επαλήθευση της αγοράς, μία φορά ανά μήνα. Το Photoshop θεωρείται ένα από τα πιο δημοφιλή πειρατικά προγράμματα όπως επίσης το Office της Microsoft για το οποίο η εταιρεία προχώρησε σε αντίστοιχο συνδρομητικό μοντέλο μέσω του Office 365, διατηρώντας όμως στην αγορά και την κλασσική πλήρη έκδοση.

Η εξέλιξη αυτή στην ουσία δεν αλλάζει τα σχέδια της Adobe η οποία σύμφωνα με την νέα πολιτική της, προσφέρει μια σειρά από επιπλέον υπηρεσίες σε κάθε συνδρομητή του Creative Cloud όπως online αποθήκευση αρχείων, online publishing και backup διαφόρων εκδόσεων των αρχείων.

There has been clarification since this story broke. Adobe has not released the CS2 software for free. Instead, it has cancelled its CS2 license management servers, so for those with existing licenses it is now offering downloads that do not require contact with the licensing servers. This service is only going to be available for those with existing Adobe CS2 licenses, which will be verified when creating the Adobe account to download the software.

Adobe's popular Creative Suite has been developed way beyond the capabilities of the initial versions of the software; however, older versions such as CS2 are still very powerful image-manipulation and content-creation tools. Still, they are no longer supported by the company and could cause problems or fail to run when installed on computers running the latest versions of OS X or Windows.

Nevertheless, if you have an older computer or have virtual-machine software configured with an older operating system compatible with CS2, then you should be able to get CS2 running. Unfortunately for Mac users, CS2 is a PowerPC application, so it will require the use of either an Intel Mac running OS X 10.4 through 10.6 with the Rosetta translator installed, or the use of an older PowerPC Mac.

The only versions of the OS X client that Apple supports in virtualization are those that do not include the Rosetta translator (OS X 10.7 and higher) which is required for running older PowerPC code on an Intel-based Mac. Therefore, while you can either virtualize the Server versions of OS X 10.6 (which is rather expensive and no longer available) or earlier, or hack virtualization software to allow installation of the OS X 10.6 client, the best option for current Mac users is to perhaps configure a Windows XP virtual machine and install the Windows version of CS2.

The CS2 download requires you to first get an Adobe account and a CS2 license, then download the installer from the CS2 downloads page.

Since this release, the Adobe Web site has been flooded with activity, so you may have to either wait for it to come back online, or access the download links directly through the SlickDeals Web site (the previous link on this page direct-links to Adobe's servers).

Well, that’s one leaked camera certainly didn’t take long to become a reality. Less than half an hour after we shared the first leaked photos of the Samsung Galaxy Camera, the camera was officially announced over in Berlin. Here’s the basic spec lowdown: Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, a 16 megapixel 1/2.3″ BSI CMOS sensor, a 21x f/2.8-5.9 23-480mm (35mm equiv.) lens, a 4.8-inch HD LCD screen, a minimal smartphone-esque design, a 1.4Ghz quad core processor, 8GB of internet storage, ISO of up to 3200, and 3G/Wi-Fi or 4G/Wi-Fi.

Powered by Android, the entire range of apps available through the Google Play marketplace are at your disposal. You can do things like play Angry Birds, check your email, browse the web, find your way to your shoots using a GPS app, and share through Instagram. That’s the power of the “phonecamera”.

3G and 4G connectivity are achieved through a small micro-SIM slot found next to the microSD card and battery pack.

Like a good smartphone-based device, the Galaxy camera offers a voice control feature for handling certain functions without needing to touch the camera. You can say things like “zoom in” and “shoot” for hands-free control.

An “Auto Cloud Backup” feature allows users to automatically backup their photographs to the cloud, while a “Share Shot” feature will share photos as their shot. Additionally, the camera can be paired up with other Wi-Fi enabled devices for easy photo transfers.

On the side of the camera, you’ll find a flash-release button that causes the pop-up flash to appear. The entire camera is elegantly designed, with minimal controls — very Apple-esque, if you ask us. There’s a power button, a shutter release coupled with a zoom toggle, and an on/off button. Besides that, you’ll be interacting with the camera entirely through the giant touchscreen and touch-buttons on the back.

It’s interesting that Samsung chose not to bake voice calling functionality into the camera — you’ll be able to use Skype and other VOIP apps, of course — which would have created a mind-boggling fusion between the camera and phone worlds. It would also have allowed people to completely replace their current smartphone, reducing the number of gadgets in their pockets by one.

The Samsung Galaxy Camera will begin hitting store shelves come October, and will be available at both camera and phone stores. Pricing hasn’t been announced.

Μετά από 3,5 χρόνια συνεχούς ανάπτυξης η νέα έκδοση του αγαπημένου GIMP, του ελεύθερου και… τούμπανου προγράμματος επεξεργασίας εικόνας κυκλοφόρησε! Τα κυριότερα χαρακτηριστικά που περιμέναμε όλοι από αυτήν τη νέα έκδοση είναι ότι η εφαρμογή τρέχει σε ένα ενιαίο παράθυρο (παλιότερα ήταν 3 διαφορετικά), η σε πολύ μεγάλο ποσοστό μεταφορά του πυρήνα της εφαρμογής στην καινούρια τεχνολογία GEGL που θα επιτρέπει τη μη καταστρεπτική επεξεργασία εικόνων και πολύ καλύτερη ποιότητα, καλύτερη υποστήριξη για layers, και άλλα που μπορείτε να δείτε στα release notes!

Να σημειωθεί ότι πριν καιρό, ένας από τους βασικούς developers του gimp για προσωπικούς λόγους είχε αποχωρήσει από την ομάδα ανάπτυξης με αποτέλεσμα η κυκλοφορία της νέας έκδοσης να καθυστερήσει αρκετά (3.5 χρόνια!). Βέβαια, πλέον οι developers ατενίζουν το μέλλον με αισιοδοξία και το μόνο σίγουρο είναι στο μέλλον θα δούμε την ήδη υψηλή ποιότητα της εφαρμογής να ανεβαίνει κατακόρυφα!

Κατεβάστε το από εδώ: http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

Μέσα από την εκδήλωση MAX 2011 από την Adobe παρουσιάστηκε πριν από λίγες μέρες μια νέα τεχνολογία η οποία “κάνει … θαύματα” σε θολωμένες εικόνες. Βασίζεται σε έναν αλγόριθμο που έχει αναπτύξει ο Jue Wang, ερευνητής επιστήμονας της Adobe.

Με την τεχνολογία αυτή φωτογραφίες οι οποίες είναι θολές, είτε περιέχουν γράμματα που φαίνονται απλά μπορούν να “καθαρίσουν” σε ελάχιστα μόλις βήματα και χωρίς ιδιαίτερες γνώσεις επεξεργασίας εικόνων. Σύμφωνα με αναφορές ο αλγόριθμος φαίνεται να λειτουργεί ακόμη και σε χαμηλής ανάλυσης φωτογραφίες, τραβηγμένες από κινητό τηλέφωνο.

Παρακάτω μπορείτε να δείτε μια εικόνα που περιέχει κείμενο και είναι θολωμένη σε σημείο που το κείμενο δεν είναι ευανάγνωστο. Το αποτέλεσμα είναι παραπάνω από εντυπωσιακό και δε δίνει καθόλου την αίσθηση ότι πρόκειται για φωτογραφία που αρχικά ήταν θολή.

Στα παραδείγματα φωτογραφιών της εταιρείες χρησιμοποιήθηκαν φωτογραφίες που “κουνήθηκαν” επίτηδες κατά τη λήψη τους, αλλά και καθαρές φωτογραφίες που θολώθηκαν τεχνητά για τις ανάγκες της παρουσίασης.

Φυσικά ο αλγόριθμος δυσκολεύτηκε περισσότερο στην πρώτη περίπτωση σε αντίθεση με το τεχνητό blur.

Η τεχνολογία δεν είναι ακόμη τελειοποιημένη ενώ υπάρχει μεγάλη πιθανότητα να ενσωματωθεί σε κάποια μελλοντική έκδοση του Adobe Photoshop.
