Photoshop 1.0 on iPhone

Yesterday’s post reminded me of something I had seen a couple of months ago. Although Adobe has had their Photoshop for iPhone app out for a while - which is truly awesome - many may have missed back in February when a limited-edition Adobe Photoshop 20th anniversary commemorative iPhone app was released to 50 select attendees of the anniversary event. The app itself was a replica of Photoshop 1.0, which Adobe debuted in 1990 exclusively on the Macintosh.

“I really wanted to do something special to commemorate 20 years of Photoshop, and the best thing I thought of was a nostalgic iPhone app”

— Russell Brown, Adobe’s Senior Creative Director and one of the original Photoshop team members, who lead the app campaign.

Here’s Brown himself showing it off :
