3D modeling actually would be far easier on your bandwidth than image editing. I'm not entirely sure what adobe plans on sending over your connection, but i assume it's plenty. A 3D modeling program on the other hand, you'd send points, maybe some transformation matrices, splines based on some points etc. If it could manage to offload 3d rendering to your computer ( the only sane way really) then you're hardly sending any information.

Gimp would be great if everyone I work with used it but I put a PSD one of my designers creates and everything goes to hell. I was very excited when I saw this headline but I'm not so impressed after seeing it's a scaled back version.Working with Flash and Photoshop ties me to Windows or OS X and I'd love to be able to go to Linux.

Make it so. Sounds great for quick jobs if you've got more than one machine (say, a laptop).However, I'll still have CS on my hard drive for actual work.

Why are there so many f**kwits on digg? Did you even read this part before complaining that it wont be able to manage you 500meg multilayered images?? - ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO YOU CRETINS.'Like Adobe Remix, the hosted Photoshop service is set to be free and marketed as an entry-level version of Adobe's more sophisticated image-editing tools, including Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.'Here's a f**king idea- read the article before commenting.

I've been looking forward to something like this for awhile, especially since I'm switching to Linux soon, and don't really like any of the image editing software currently available.That said, for *really simple* online photo editing, I've been quite impressed with Picnik (<a class="user" href="http://www.picnik.com/)">http://www.picnik.com/)</a>

It seems that you don't understand the concept. Let me help:IT IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR A FULL VERSION OF PHOTOSHOP.Do you understand now?This is geared towards the average joe so they can alter that photo of the family trip to the Grand Canyon easily and for free.
