Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Love it but gives me a headache from inexperience!
I am glad to have a friend that went to school for photography and is good with this Photoshop Elements and she can tell me over the phone what to do step by step if I can't figure out something that is so easy unless you are not educated on it!As I am working on it by myself I am slowly but surely making really neat and fun pictures and my creativity is increasing as my skills increase!!! It's fun!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Adobe Photoshop 8
Very disappointed in this product. I had an earlier version that I've used a lot. The problem with this version is the edit screen task bar is almost impossible to read because it is so small.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Adobe Photo Shop Elements - A Good Start
Adobe Photo Shop Elements is the first photo editor we have used. It is a good start for beginners. As we further explore its capabilities it may be all we need for our purposes.
