Easter Egg

West Virginia

Photoshop CS Easter Egg

I figured that Photoshop had to have an Easter Egg. It was easy to find. You just hold down the CTRL key and click on About. This one is for version 8.0. It's called Dark Matter.

You have to let the credits scroll because they get very interesting toward the end. :) You can hold down the ALT key to speed it up.

And the final line is "Extra special thanks go to Karen Stuebing, one of our favorite customers." :)

I wonder how many are hidden in those layers.
Great find!

I don't have CS so I guess I'll have to settle for a block of Cadbury's :>)

Photoshop Elements doesn't have a cool screen :( ...but it does have the "special thanks to Cindy Powell..." thingie. Cool find, Karen!

What are Easter Eggs Karen, I'm a little confused.
Gary Blanchette20-Jun-2006 12:45
Thanks for the reminder Karen. I read about this a short while back and had forgot about it.

I tried it on my 'training-wheels' version (Photoshop Elements 4.0).
No easter egg.
I got the plain scrolling credits with a special thanks to me at the end.
Nice touch, Adobe.
Nice find, Karen.
