Photoshop

Issue summary: Since Photoshop 2025 (exact version unknown, but after 25.12.4) direction-based brush strokes, when set in the brush settings (Shape Dynamics - Angle Jitter - Direction), are not working properly. The very first 'pixel' of nearly every stroke is angled about 90 degrees perpendicular, before correcting itself immediately as the stroke continues. This breaks a previously working workflow. The problem is only mitigated by using external stabilisation (I’m using Lazy Nezumi Pro with light smoothing), which suggests the issue is related to how initial pen input samples are handled at stroke start. I also ideally need to have 1% smoothing enabled in Photoshop, or the bug can lightly reoccur occasionally. Using older Photoshop versions avoids the issue, but this is not a viable long-term solution due to other compatibility and stability concerns. I have used these brushes for years with no issues until recently.Product and version: 25.12.4. (laptop) the bug does not occur in th

I am trying to purchase a subscription for Photoshop but the disparity in prices is very confusing. I am shown one price on the plans website but when i click buy, the price doubles or even triples sometimes.Someone please explain this to me. The price of Photoshop before clicking the buy button. After clicking buy on photoshop alone. 

I just updated my Photoshop this morning to version 27.9.0 and now, no matter what file format or options I use to export an image, the export appears washed out or sun-bleached.On a Reddit, I found the solution (posted 11 hours ago, very much in the same timeframe as I began experiencing it), which is to go into Preferences, under Performance, and uncheck Use Graphics Processor:https://www.reddit.com/r/photoshop/comments/1vak5kj/photoshop_update_and_now_my_images_look_washed/This should definitely be fixed. Thanks so much.

Recently the side panel in Path Blur went missing so I am unable to modify path blur to what I want 

Bonjour,Quand j'utilise l'Outil Correcteur Localisé en cliquant avec ma souris sur une zone de la photo à l’écran, une multitude de lignes partent dans tous les sens. Donc cet outil ne fonctionne plus depuis plusieurs jours. Est-ce un bug ?

Hello,I have encountered what appears to be a GPU-related rendering bug when converting RGB images to CMYK in Photoshop.SystemPhotoshop 27.8 macOS Tahoe 26.5.2 Mac Studio M2 Ultra Apple Silicon GPUProblemWhenever GPU acceleration is enabled, converting an RGB image to CMYK produces severe black rendering artifacts across the image. The artifacts appear immediately after the color conversion and make the document unusable.The issue occurs with multiple images and is fully reproducible on my system.Steps to ReproduceOpen an RGB image. Make sure Use Graphics Processor is enabled under Preferences > Performance. Convert the document to CMYK (either Image > Mode > CMYK Color or Edit > Convert to Profile). Large black artifacts appear throughout the image.Expected ResultThe RGB image should convert normally to CMYK without any visual corruption.Actual ResultThe converted image contains large black rendering artifacts that were not present in the original RGB document.WorkaroundDi

I'm experiencing a serious issue when using Generative Fill in Adobe Photoshop.Whenever I use the AI Generative Fill feature, my computer suddenly powers off completely. It is not just Photoshop crashing—the entire PC shuts down instantly. After that, I cannot turn the computer back on unless I switch off the power supply or unplug the power cable for a few seconds before turning it on again.This issue only happens when I use Generative Fill. Other Photoshop features work normally. Has anyone experienced the same issue?I'm trying to determine whether this is a known compatibility issue with Photoshop's AI features, an AMD GPU driver problem, a hardware issue, or something else.If you've encountered this before, I'd really appreciate hearing what caused it and how you resolved it. Are there any recommended settings, BIOS updates, GPU driver versions, or troubleshooting steps that I should try?Thank you in advance for any suggestions or advice.

I recently compared Firefly, Gemini Nano, and FLUX 1 Kontext Pro inside Photoshop. One gives me ideas in seconds with different generations vs the time it takes to draw one sketch or composed one. It’s an incredible power, but I wonder if we’re losing our creative "gut feeling" in the process. Design has changed for many. In Photoshop, AI has turned the canvas into an interactive partner. As designers, we are no longer just creators; we are curators of a conversation.   We’ve never had this much power at our fingertips, but does speed equal mastery? I want to know: Does that speed make you feel like a creative powerhouse, or does it make you wonder who’s really in the driver’s seat? Please drop a comment with your experience! ~ Love to hear how your process or thoughts has shifted—No right or wrong answers here—just your honest take!  

Hello everyone.In the past, I would shoot RAW, and I would also shoot a RAW file of the Passport Photo Color Checker for camera calibration. Inside Adobe Camera Raw, I created a DNG file, and I used the Color Checker Passport to generate a calibration profile, which I saved in this folder: C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfilesLater, inside Camera Raw under Camera Calibration, I would select the profile name created from the Passport calibration.It seems that Camera Calibration inside Camera Raw is different now. In other words, I can’t select my custom calibration profile anymore.Thanks.

For a long time I've been using Photoshop Elements Organizer to catalog and manage my large collection of photographic images.  I'm curious to hear what application other people are using.  I'm a Windows 11 user, make extensive use of Photoshop, Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw.  While I'm generally satisfied with the PSE Organizer (2022 version),  I'm always on the lookout for a cataloging application that might be better.  Any thoughts?

Hi everyone,I created and exported a website banner in Adobe Photoshop. The image looks clear and sharp inside Photoshop and when opened locally, but after uploading it to my website, it appears slightly blurry and the colours do not look exactly the same.This is the page where the exported image is being displayed:[link removed]I exported the image in WebP format to reduce its file size and improve page-loading speed. I have also tried exporting it again at a higher quality, but the difference is still visible on the website, especially on mobile screens.Could this be related to the Photoshop colour profile, WebP export settings, image dimensions, or browser scaling?Should I convert the document to sRGB before exporting, or use a different Photoshop export option for website banners?Thanks for any guidance.

Hello! I recently noticed that when I change a setting on a brush preset it affects all my other brushes. For example, I have a pencil brush with a certain texture and transfer behaviour that has a different texture and behaviour than my pencil shader brush. If i change the texture in the pencil brush, it automatically changes this texture in my shader brush even if both settings have been locked. I then have to manually change these settings back to the the way I want it before using the brush. I am changing the brush in the preset tool bar, not just changing the brush tip. This never used to be an issue for me but now it impedes my workflow since I have to manually change all the settings every time i switch to a new brush.  If anyone has any answers, please let me know. Thank you. 

I'm using Photoshop 26.5 and every time I open the font dialog the top several lines will flicker by shifting to the left and back. Also as I scroll through the list the list will reset to the top. When I finally scroll down to the font I want and start to hover over it the list will shift I have to scroll again. It's almost unusable. I don't see this issue in illustrator or after effects. I'm running a Macbook Pro M1 Max with Sonoma.
