   So apparently #Adobe is really worried now that "photoshopping" is becoming a generic term, which might lead them to lose the trademark. So they offer all sorts of helpful advice:

   Like:

   > Correct: The image was enhanced using Adobe® Photoshop® software.
   > Incorrect: The image was photoshopped.

   I think what we should do instead is say:

   > The image was gimped using Adobe™ Photoshop™

     Let's call it Gnu Imp, or just Imp, for goodness sake. Gimp is such a terrible name that it hinders adoption. It really needs a rebrand.
