Adobe® Photoshop® CS4 Extended software delivers all the features in Photoshop CS4, plus new features for working with 3D imagery, motion-based content, and advanced image analysis. If you work in film, video, multimedia, 3D, manufacturing, architecture, engineering, medicine, or science, Photoshop Extended is for you.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 software takes advantage of the latest graphics processing unit (GPU) hardware to deliver superior performance. The software offers a smooth pan and zoom experience that allows users to easily edit images at the highest magnification while maintaining clarity. The new Canvas Rotation tool makes it simple to rotate and work on an image from any angle. Photoshop CS4 helps keep work areas clutter-free with a new unified application frame, tab-based interface and self-adjusting panels that make it easy to quickly access advanced tools, and provide a more fluid way to interact with the application.

Adobe CS4 Extended includes all the new features of Photoshop CS4 plus the ability to manipulate 3D imagery easier than ever before. Now, creativity knows no bounds, as users can paint directly on 3D models and surfaces, merge 2-D files onto 3D images and animate 3D objects. The 3D engine has been rebuilt from the ground up to provide faster performance, allow editing of properties like light and the ability to create more realistic renderings with a new high-quality ray-tracer. Video professionals have the ability to turn any 3D object into a video display zone and can animate 3D objects and properties with ease. In addition, the core motion graphics editing has been improved with more efficient single-key shortcuts.

Many professionals are familiar with the problem; quality loss caused by digital image magnification. In many cases a great deal of time is spent on achieving only a fairly acceptable enlargement result, however there are familiar side effects including out-of-focus images and serrated edges which is illustrative for the lack of professional magnification software.

PhotoZoom Pro™ 2 is based on S-Spline XL: a renewed and improved version of our patented, self-adjusting, many times awarded S-Spline interpolation technology. As we did with S-Spline, our S-Spline XL technology again introduces a revolutionary breakthrough in digital image enlargement. It is able to render sharp and crisp clear image magnifications, perfectly focused, yet without the jagged edges, loss of detail or lack of photorealism that normally come with enlarging images.

The program ImageDupeless is intended for search/find of the similar images (duplicates) in the large collections. The supported graphic file formats are JPEG, GIF, BMP, PCX, PNG, TIFF, PGM, WMF, EMF, EPS, PSD, ICO. The comparison is based on the contents of images, not depending on their sizes, formats, resolutions, etc. There are advanced opportunities of cataloging the galleries available on CDs and of further off-line work with them. At that the comparison of new images with those of included into the gallery takes much less time, than complete rescanning the gallery, and is possible even if the CD itself with imaging data is absent. There are internal facilities for comparison, deletion (including groups of images), movement, and update of files, change of root directory binding for the gallery.

Main features:

* it is possible to store optionally thumbnails of the images and to work in the off-line mode;

Remember back to when the Russians were Communists and part of the "Evil Empire", the Soviet Union? Remember how they COMPLETELY DOMINATED the Olympics and won more medals than everyone else?

How did they do that? What you didn’t see was the behind the scenes research they put into their training, methodology, and dieting for those athletes? NO expenses were spared. They literally spent billions of dollars developing and researching every little secret way they can get an advantage over American and Western athletes?

Intelligence may be narrowly defined as the capacity to acquire knowledge and understanding,and use it in different novel situations. It is this ability,or capacity,which enables the individual to deal with real situations and profit intellectually from sensory experience. A test of intelligence is designed to formally study,under test conditions,the success of an individual in adapting to a specific situation. There are a number of different methods which purport to measure intelligence,the most famous of which is the IQ,or intelligence quotient test.In the formation of such tests many psychologists treat intelligence as a general ability operating as a common factor in a wide variety of aptitudes. Whilst many IQ tests measure a variety of different types of ability such as verbal,mathematical,spatial and reasoning skills,there is now a second school of thought in which it is believed that the earlier definitions of intelligence may be too simplistic.

Of the different methods that purport to measure intelligence,the most famous is the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) test, which is a standardised test designed to measure human intelligence as distinct from attainments.
Intelligence quotient is an age-related measure of intelli-gence level. The word quotient means the result of dividing one quantity by another, and one definition of intelligence is mental ability or quickness of mind.
