Adobe has done an excellent job fitting its leading image editor to tablets, and now the premiere imaging software maker adds support for Retina displays and larger images.

Adobe Photoshop Touch 1.3 (for iPad)

This new effect turns your photos into color confetti.

Adobe Photoshop Touch 1.3 (for iPad) - High Res

You can now work with photos of up to 12 megapixels, if you change the setting here.

Adobe Photoshop Touch 1.3 (for iPad) - Colorize

This new Colorize effect gives you a lot of control over applying replacement colors of your choice to your image. This is actually the same photo as that used in the first slide.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Start Screen

When you first start Photoshop Touch, you'll be able to view tutorials or just get going with your own image editing.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Help Overlays

Overlays identify what the various toolbar buttons are for.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Drawing

You get a basic brush, but no where near the drawing options of Photoshop CS6.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Color Tint Filter

A full spectrum, as well as a dropper color picker is at your disposal for the color tint filter.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Layers

You can hide and unhide layers and move them to change stacking order, but unfortunately, you can't open a PSD file's layers you've created in Photoshop proper.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Scribble Selection

This tool makes selecting image elements easier than the also-included lasso tool. The greeen indicates areas to keep, and the red areas to remove from the selection.

Adobe Photoshop Touch - Text tool

Text tools are reasonably flexible, with lots of good display typefaces. You can move, resize, and recolor to taste.
