Well, it has arrived—probably the most-anticipated program for Intel Macs has made its way to Apple's newest CPU platform, and you can almost hear the collective sigh of relief from Mac users (it's only slightly louder than the mumbles of 'don't do this to us again' from Adobe). But CS3 isn't just a small update—it's chock full of enough new stuff that's Adobe feels it's now worth branching out into two different versions: Photoshop CS3 and Photoshop CS3 Extended. Don't worry though—all of the Photoshop CS2 features are in still the standard edition and both include Bridge CS3. But don't just take my word for it.

You'll notice what's not mentioned there: ImageReady. Adobe has axed it completely and has instead replaced it with Fireworks CS3, which is sold in a separate web suite package or as a standalone program. But don't worry—you don't need to get Fireworks to do simple animated GIFs since the ImageReady frame-based animation palette is incorporated into Photoshop CS3 Standard. Still, not everything from ImageReady made it in, and some beta users were already lamenting the loss of JavaScript rollovers for slices. It also seems that you can't open an animated GIF to show the animated frames anymore—you have to have the source PSD file.
It's a fake!
The GIF opened in Photoshop CS3, showing only the first frame:
This is the same behavior that Photoshop CS2 had, but if I feel like it's a bit of a loss to not provide all the features that were in both ImageReady CS2.
Anyway, I'm getting ahead of myself here so before I start slinging any mud, let's get back to basics.
