Since I have fallen into weird a custom of recognizing geeky website birthdays, I might as well go ahead and add software to the mix and wish Photoshop a very happy 20th birthday!! I can't begin to describe how much this program has changed the art of photography, for better and worse.
Photoshop 1.0 was released on February 18th, 1990 and was in its early years, a Mac-only program. Over the last 20 years it has become the defacto standard for digital photographic editing.
Thanks to Photoshop you can do anything to a photograph that your imagination permits, and it's the main reason you can no longer trust an image to be real.
Happy Pixels, Photoshop.

I just got the Photoshop Elements 8.0 and don't know what I'd do without it! I'm hooked! And I don't even take advantage of 10% of its potential.
