Photoshop Mobile coming to a cellphone near you with 5GB free storage, no photo editing options

If you’re gonna call something a gun, you better make sure it can blow the bejezus out of my skull when you point and shoot it at me. Likewise, when a new mobile service’s name sounds a lot like a famous desktop photo editing tool’s, I’d expect it to at least let me get the brightness settings on my photos straight.

But whatever. We’re hearing that Adobe is all set on launching a new mobile service, which they have proudly dubbed Photoshop Mobile, and surprisingly doesn’t feature mobile photo editing as one of its key assets.

Instead of letting you edit the heck out of your photos on a phone as its name suggests, Photoshop Mobile offers 5GB of free online storage to anyone that has a Photoshop.com account ID. Photoshop Plus members, meanwhile, get up to 20GB.

Currently, you’ll be able to browse Photoshop.com freely on any of the following smartphones: Motorola Q9m/h, Samsung Blackjack I/II, and Palm Treo 750w/700w/wx. Support for more handsets including the iPhone, BlackBerry Pearl, Motorola Razr (how’d that get in there?), and a couple of mid-end Nokia phones will come on September, as well as a freely downloadable client for the service to be installed on the handsets themselves.

As usual you’ll be able to use Shozu for uploading your stuff to Photoshop Mobile, if that’s what you prefer, but other than that and what’s mentioned above, we’re still a little scarce for details about this new mobile service. Guess we’ll all just have to wait until it launches, then.

performance-enhancing keyboard skins for your mac

If you can’t keep your apple-shift-Ls straight from your apple-shift-Ps then these performance-enhancing keyboard shortcut skins might be just the thing for you. Designed for use with Macs in Photoshop, Aperture, and more, these skins are like the Cliff’s Notes for the modern era.

I know- you thought you would have memorized every keyboard shortcut by now. Don’t feel bad, a lot of folks need a little boost to optimize their Photoshop prowess or their Final Cut finesse.

The skins are washable rubber, so there’s no need to fear your frappuccino during an all-night editing binge. They’re color-coded by function and easy to take off and put on. Their kicky colors are also, in my opinion, far more aesthetically pleasing than the once-white but now grimy Mac keyboard on which I am typing right now.

Buy them at PhotoJoJo. They’ll set you back $30 for laptop models, $40 for desktop models.They offer shortcut skins for Photoshop, Aperture 1.5, Final Cut Pro/Express, Pro Tools, and After Effects. They’re compatible with black and white Macbooks, Macbook Pro, Macbook Air, the Classic Apple Keyboard and the Apple Thin Keyboards.

‘Enable 3G’ setting in iPhone 2.0 Firmware fake… NOT?

While I was busy getting lost in the woods the other day, Engadget and a bunch of other sites got down to some investigative reporting and claimed this screenshot of iPhone 2.0’s 3G settings was nothing more than a photoshopped fake. They almost got me there. Almost.

Engadget’s report is based on, like the source of the original screenshot (Chronic Productions), an obscure blog that as good as widely unread. The blog, called iSmashphone, claims that they are 100% right about this screenshot being a fake. So why are they putting strikethroughs all over their original post now that their blog is starting to become famous? Why change the words of an article if those are what made you a hot one in the first place?

3g iPhone settings

The simple truth, according to Arn of MacRumors and Ed of iPhoneAlley, is that iSmashphone took the matter quite too literally, and forgot to read between the lines, saying that the screenshot was nothing but a fake just because Chronic Productions closed down their blog right after posting a very revealing disclaimer. According to Chronic Productions (in a post made just before they closed down their blog), “The 3G screenshot was a fake, but ironically it really is in the firmware and looks exactly like that!”

Well, here’s your exactly like that. Arn clears things up by saying that the exact words seen in the screenshot are indeed found on iPhone 2.0’s firmware, only not in the same place as the first string pertaining to the 3G option.

\'Enable 3G\' Setting in iPhone Firmware NOT Fake

So as it appears, the 3G option will be included in iPhone 2.0 (as we all already know), the screenshot might as well be real, and the disclaimer posted by Chronic Productions should be the dead give away. They just got accepted into the iPhone Developer Program, so they probably wanted to leave things nice and clean, lest they want to get in trouble with Apple.

But then again, I’m no photoshop expert, so if you want to pick pixels and still say this screenshot is a fake, please feel free to do so. Bottom line is still that that iPhone will be getting 3G network support very soon, and that the 3G settings are going to appear in the exact likeness of this screenshot. Or at least it should.

mario gets real (weird)

What if Mario weren’t a cartoony video game character? Artist Pixeloo set out to answer that question when creating this “realistic” rendering of Nintendo’s little Italian plumber.

Real Mario Render by Pixeloo

While it’s some pretty amazing graphic work, “real” Mario isn’t quite as endearing as he’s been in previous incarnations. Created by compositing a variety of real facial details and textures in Photoshop CS2 on top of a 3D model from Nintendo, the guy is just plain creepy.

Real Mario Render by Pixeloo

I can’t decide if it’s the scraggly facial hair or the bulbous, slightly bloodshot eyeballs that will keep me up tonight. This is definitely not the kind of Mario that you’d want your kids playing with.

Man telecommutes by sending in a robot replacement

Filed under:

We’ve been warning of humankind’s eventual obsolescence at the hands of our robot overlords as long as we can remember, so it’s basically horrifying to see someone not only fail to heed our advice, but actively hasten our eventual extinction by replacing himself with a robot. Programmer Ivan Bowman works from home, but still maintains his presence in the office through the use of a bot he calls IvanAnywhere — a clever play on his name and the name of his employer, iAnywhere. Basically a webcam-on-wheels, IvanAnywhere motors around the office, takes meetings, and even gives presentations, all while the real Ivan remains safely pantless in his home office. Actually, that sounds pretty smart — anyone got a spare webcam?
