One of the big Photoshop editing files was for a big project at Tinker AFB in the mile long building they have. At the center of the building is a large intersection, and they have a huge 8 foot tall 20 foot wide transparency we made. We had to make the light box to illuminate it, and I made the graphic from a composite of over a dozen photos. It was right at a gigabyte image back in the olden days of computers. I remember if I clicked save it took over one hour just to save the file. It took me days to make the image because the computers were just overtaxed. Now I have to cuss at Photoshop because it will open 12 GIG tiff file, and let me edit it, but I can't save it because Photoshop says it is too big. The only format I can save it in it a PNG file! Then I can open it in my mapping software and make a tiff file for the client. PNG is not a standard except web design.

I can open and edit and save a one GB file in seconds.
