A big thing for me is that i can dust and scratch in 16 bit.
Unsharp mask in 16 bit. A BIG DEAL I think.

As I'm working furiously on my website Photoshop 6 has a save for web feature
and incorporates right into it many more features of it's companion web product
they give you with it: ImageReady

Photoshop 6 has Adobe Illustrator-like tools and vector type that stays vector
type to the end. Version 6 also blurs the lines between Photoshop and ImageReady
and GoLive.

It's GoLive I've put my website up with and I'm already into Illustrator for
vector stuff. I like their stuff, their consistent interface.

There's a whole new info bar at the top now all the time which tells you the
parameters of whatever tool you are using.

The cropping tool can do all kinds of stuff now... keystoning and polygon.
