BetaNews has just announced some of the specs for the strangely named Photoshop CS 2 (I'll still call it Photoshop 9). Over the years, I have found that every new version of Photoshop has come with features which I felt were less and less valuable to me. The Magic Wand, Export for Web and Palette Dock are some of the few "newer" features I use regularily. I still remember (Photoshop 4?) the first time I got to play with multiple undos, now that was a big new feature. So while Photoshop has become consistently better it hasn't excited me all that much with any must-have feature. That is, until I read this: Users will also be able to scale images with less quality loss than previous Photoshop versions. Scaling, while very competent, has always been a bit of a hit and miss affair especially when working with tricky things such as rasterized vectors. I might look into this one closer then.
