sincity Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 For an operating system that lives mostly on the cloud, Chrome OS provides users with just about everything they need from working on documents to streaming video. But one crucial omission has always been a decent image editor - that is until now . Adobe is working with Google on a special beta called Project Photoshop Streaming. As the name suggests, users will be able to stream Adobe Photoshop on their Chromebooks to edit images when the arguably best app available on the platform so far has been the Pixlr editor As this special streaming version of the Photoshop has been designed to work from the cloud and users will also be able to tweak files stored on Google Drive without needing to download and re-upload files. Adobe also notes users will be able to access Photoshop directly from the Chrome browser on Windows as well. Head in the cloud Initially Photoshop on Chrome OS will only be available to US-based Adobe education customers with a paid Creative Cloud membership. What's more, this trial program also requires eligible users to sign up for the beta. While the beta is extremely limited for now, the image application maker promises that streaming access to Photoshop with other products will be coming soon. Aside from gaming, photo-editing applications have been a gigantic hole in Chrome OS ecosystem. With the recent addition of Android apps on Chrome OS, it looks like Google is making moves to fill out the gaps in its cloud-based operating system.
