Now don't get me wrong, I like PhotoShop, and I make part of my living teaching it, but has anyone else gotten the idea that some of the changes in the new versions (I'm actually talking about 5, I haven't installed 5.5 yet) are retrograde? That in the endless "We have to come up with something new, so we can sell an update" battle they are making ill informed choices? Two cases in point- I've been using paths a lot lately, and they used to work better when the tools were in the path pallette, not in the toolbox, they you could just click on a tool, not open the tool in the toolbox and then click on a tool. And version 4 used to open files as big as would fix on your screen, now they are back to the nearest even size again- this is an improvement? I have to use the newest version because that is what I teach, but I don't know about some of the changes they are making.
