Claim: Photoshop becomes unnecessary for many photo effects because CSS blend modes combined with filters and gradients recreate vintage filters (she rebuilds a “Raging Mist” action), animated hue‑rotations and dynamic overlays directly in the browser. Demos use Chrome with -webkit prefixes, show reduced image weight by using grayscale + blend modes, and note support gaps (Edge). Photoshop’s 33 second load and Creative Cloud cost are contrasted; the methods work live, are performant, and replace many static Photoshop steps.
