"Photoshop Plug-ins"

Is it your claim now that the plug-ins listed on that page were all written by Adobe, Tony?

Tony Cooper
No, each plug-in listing tells you who developed the plug-in. Adobe is specifying that they didn't develop them.

Sandman
But you just said that only Adobe can make Photoshop plug-ins, and that page lists Photoshop plug-ins. Tricky situation you've gotten yourself into!

Tony Cooper
Right. Only Adobe can call plug-in an "Adobe Plugin",

twist twist twist.

but they can approve vendors as suppliers of plugins for Photoshop.

approval is not required to write photoshop plug-ins. all that's needed is to download the sdk and start writing.

it does take some intelligence to write a plug-in, so that does rule you out, however.

The plugins on that page are evidently plugins that Adobe has approved for use with Photoshop.

it's a marketing page. there may be an agreement between adobe and the companies to be listed.

there is no approval.

Strange that some of the most-used plugins are not listed.

nothing strange about that at all.

Amazing that you can see words there that are not visible to the human eye. OnOne is clearly avoiding trademark infringement by using "companion" and stating that what they offer are plugins that work with the Adobe products.

there is no avoidance of trademark infringement.
