In 1987, Thomas Knoll, the son of a professor, began developing a program, called ''Display'', to display grayscale images on his ''Macintosh Plus''. His brother John Knoll who worked for ''Industrial Light & Magic'' quickly realized the commercial potential of ''Display'', and recommended Thomas to turn it into a full-fledged image editing program. Thomas worked on the program and renamed it ''Photoshop'' in 1988. They then began to distribute copies of the program with a slide scanner. But ''Photoshop'' was not well known until John met Russell Brown, art director at ''Adobe''. Soon ''Adobe'' decided to purchase the license to distribute in September 1988.
