Adobe plans to offer a scaled-down, web-based version of its popular Photoshop software to everyone for free, but right now it’s only available to people in Canada. The company is testing the Photoshop web version on the Canadian market and plans to roll it out to the rest of the world at a later date. The catch? Well, this free version would include many of the bells and whistles people expect from Photoshop and would compete with many of the best free photo editors available. However, at least half of the tools are gated off. Adobe hopes this will be enough to entice you to sign up for the paid version. The company began offering a web-based version of Photoshop and Illustrator last year, albeit much more scaled-down than the full program. For example, web users could play around with layers and leave comments, but that was about it.
