The default toolbar in PhotoShop (the floating one) is always laying under the other windows (brushes, layers etc.). I hate it when the toolbar always seems to get lost. Thats why I wrote this tiny launcher for PhotoShop, you can make the floating toolbar stay on top of every other window when you start Photoshop.

Adobe Photoshop software, the professional image-editing standard and leader of the Photoshop digital imaging line, delivers more of what you crave.

Groundbreaking creative tools help you achieve extraordinary results. Unprecedented adaptability will let you custom-fit Photoshop exactly to the way you work. And with more efficient editing, processing, and file handling, theres no slowing you down.


A licensed copy of Photoshop, Creative Suite 2, Production Studio, Adobe Web Bundle, or Adobe Video Bundle is required to use this technology beyond a two-day trial period.

LuraWave is a state-of-the-art file format that uses wavelet-based compression to reduce file sizes while achieving better image quality than conventional methods such as JPEG and TIFF.

Compared to the current standard lossy compression format, JPEG, the LuraWave product family delivers substantially higher image quality at the same compression rates while dramatically reducing the amount of data required to represent and store an image.
