Haha, best joke of the day, Mr Clown Dictionary. You still don't know the meaning of words such as "protocol", "requirement" or what a "Photoshop Plug-In" is. Remember such fantastic quotes such as:

'Only Adobe can call a plug-in a "Photoshop Plug-in"'

Eric Stevens
And quite right too. Once Adobe has called it that, so too can other people. If you haven't got Adobe's approval, the proper way to describe it is as a 'plug-in for Photoshop'.

once again, there is no approval necessary to write and sell a photoshop plug-in and call it that, which is what a lot of companies do.

To paraphrase one of your favorite terms: no one has said that any approval is required to write a plug-in to used with an Adobe product.

What has been said is that the term "Photoshop Plug-in" is a misleading term. It implies that the plug-in is something Adobe has provided. It should be called "a plug-in for Photoshop".

I know you'll be quick to say "Nobody does that". That doesn't negate that the term "Photoshop Plug-in" is wrong. It just shows that there are many people - including you - who have no respect for the proprietary rights to the word "Photoshop".

Was it you, or your tag team buddy Popinjay, who said that state sales tax should be paid to the state by a purchaser of an online product when the seller did not charge tax, but nobody does that? At least you recognize that this circumvents the law.

You wouldn't have any trouble recognizing that someone advertising "Ford tires" is not selling tires made by Ford and that what they are advertising are "tires for a Ford". Why you don't see "Photoshop Plug-in" as the same is beyond me.
