Adobe, Give Us A Lite Version of Photoshop for Free

Adobe has decided to put Photoshop online for free. Adobe plans to generate revenue from online advertising (like GMail) though the web based version of Photoshop will not be as sophisticated (or complex) as the desktop application.

There's absolutely no mention about the features that one might expect in Online Photoshop but the brand value associated with Photoshop software alone will make this a Youtube of Online Image Editors.

Most of us use these online photo editing software only for cropping or resizing or rotating images. The online version of Adobe Photoshop will be a scaled down version of Photoshop Elements which itself is a poor cousin of the Photoshop suite.

Who needs another basic photo editor ? Instead, Adobe should offer a free-portable version of Photoshop for free that requires no installation or internet activation, is no memory-hog and can run off your USB Memory Stick. This will gain them more prospective customers and a serious chance to compete with Google Picasa.
