A '''Photoshop contest''', or sometimes '''Photoshop battle''' (often abbreviated to PS Battle), is an [[online]] game, in which a [[website]] or user of an [[Internet forum]] will post a starting [[image]] — usually a [[photograph]] — and ask others to manipulate the image using some [[computer graphics|graphics]] editing [[software]], usually [[Adobe Photoshop]], however other editors are commonly allowed, such as [[Corel Photo-Paint]], [[GIMP]], [[PaintShop Pro]], [[Paint.NET]] or even [[Paint (software)|Microsoft Paint]]. People can also use [[video editing]] software to create these images, such as [[Adobe Premiere Pro]], [[Kdenlive]], [[OpenShot]], or [[VideoPad Video Editor|NCH VideoPad]].

While [[Photoshop (verb)|Photoshop]] is the industry standard image editing program, [[Adobe Systems]], the publisher of Photoshop, [[Adobe Photoshop#Cultural impact|discourages use]] of "Photoshop" to refer to anything other than their photo editing software, to prevent their [[trademark]] from becoming [[Generic trademark|generic]].
