First of all, this is for mac os x only.. so go away you apple haters. You'll just miss out. :p

here's two screen shots. There's at least one new tool i dont' know how to use called the recovery brush... whatever that does.. haven't figured it out.. plus you'll also see a few new layer modes. There's also some other features here and there so far. Too bad no help files eh? :D

And although the screen shot shows ps6.. if you look at the versions, you'll see that it says version 7.. and that's obviously not the screen adobe is going to use.. unless they are changing the name of photoshop to liquid. :D

I heard that these were fake because the beta version of 7 is not called liquid (they all have code names, Illustrator 10 was called paloma), but the features are correct because the person that made them saw the real beta at MacWorld in SF and copied that.  The Recovery Brush is actually like the command-option of the eraser in PS6. It unerases parts of a picture that you just erased.  But that's all I have heard.

Sweet effect on Pic 2....how'd ya do it? Using the linear dodge or what?

YAY-I'm beyond the code.monkey level now =)

Yeah, I think it's a new layer blending mode.  It will be interesting to see how it works or if it is just a cheesy filter discuised as a Blending mode.

Ahh, I got shots 2-3 months ago.

Echo mate, the efffect on Pic 2 is done by creating some image and then applying the radial blur to it. THe linear dodge wouldn't create that image, it would just change the way it looks, its just a layer style...or commonly known as a layer blending mode.

btw, ricey mate, where'd you pull that one out of?  You some kinda beta tester for Adobe?
