Photoshop Content vs Message

The content of Photoshop are the editing tools such as the lasso, the paint tool, the scaling and rotating capabilities, the blur tool, etc. The content of Photoshop are all the things that allow one to change and alter an image.

The message is what someone does with Photoshop. So, the way an image is altered or how something looks after it is edited. The message is represented in how the image is transformed or presented once it has gone through the content of Photoshop.
