Adobe Photoshop Elements

Pros and Cons

Photoshop Elements (PSE) is such a great resource for both new and experienced digital scrappers. As with any software purchase though, it’s important to determine your needs and the capabilities you desire in a program before moving forward with your purchase. PSE is affordable and features extensive capabilities but there are a few common components not available in PSE that may render it somewhat ineffective depending on your needs. The main differences between PSE and full version Photoshop will affect your ability to use your work product professionally. If you are looking for a program that’s relatively easy to learn; one that will allow you quick photo fixes and the ability to use purchased digital products – then PSE is definitely your solution! There is a 30 day trial version of PSE available here (under “Digital Imaging”) Another bonus? PSE often comes bundled with cameras – you may already have the program and not even know it!
