PopPhoto’s Debbie Grossman paid a visit to the Adobe Mothership a couple of weeks ago, getting a grand tour from Bryan Hughes & chatting with modest brainiacs like Jeff Chien. Showing tons of daring, she underwent Kelly Castro’s black & white process–the first woman to do so. (“That’s because it makes men look tough and women look like hell," she writes.)

At Siggraph last week, Zorana Gee encountered the guys from OnLatte ("You got it right: we make industrial robot machines that do nothing but pretty up tasty beverages") and had them put the Photoshop icon on foam (image two).

This isn’t Photoshop-specific, but I noticed that Adobe.com has added a slick new search widget to the site. Groovy, as previously I’d resorted to using Google (typing "site:http://www.adobe.com" plus a search term into the search field).

DG’s visit is the precursor of important things to come out of CS4. 🙂
Cool — even if scaldingly hot! Of course, that OnLatte-printing highlights very clearly that “the Photoshop icon” is hardly an icon at all, but just a dull square with the dull letters PS. Ah yes, it’s been a while since anyone griped about that topic, so I figured we now — a few months from the impending CS4 release — needed to rub some salt in that ol’ wound again. 😉 [Oh, don’t worry: you’ll get a whole new chance soon enough. –J.]

If you haven’t seen it already.
Don’t forget the Stanford Harmonics acappella group Phonoshop CD from 2000.
