pre-layers versions of photoshop [I think they added them in 95ish] were a whole different scene, like you'd have to plan out what you wanted to do in advance, have all your original files ready and do a single "run" where you couldn't really gently caress up because the undo cache only had 1 or 2 steps in it. If you made a big mistake you could frequently have to start from scratch plus a basic unsharp mask would take 5-10 minutes to run

channels were metal as gently caress
