Definitions

  1. To digitally alter a photo

Word origin

Genericized trademark of Adobe Photoshop, a widely-used graphics editor. This may in turn have been derived from its usage to refer to the camera room in the offset lithography process, where laid up pages could be extensively retouched before being transferred to the printing plates.

Used in a sentence

  • She charged that the prosecutor had photoshopped the image to incriminate her.
  • Photographs can be manipulated, too; while a "Photoshopped" image may look beautiful, it might not give a correct impression of a place (this is a whole other column).
  • The feisty brunette star of The Mummy [sc. Rachel Weisz] boasts: "I really did hold that snake. People thought it was Photoshopped in, but it was the real thing. I had to stay relaxed." What about the snake?
