Photoshop

[Brian]

Looking at getting Adobe Photoshop & Premiere Elements 9. Is this pretty good? I guess some basic vid and photo editing is all I'm looking for, but want something that I can learn from and do more with as I learn. Anyone have this, or another version of it? Seems like a good price and I have a $100 Amazon gift card.

I've never used Elements but I do use photoshop often, what I can I say, they're the best hands down. Although I usually use Sony Vegas for video editing.

I've used Adobe a few times and it isn't hard to use and can definitely do lots of projects with it. I'm still a novice photoshop person. Just working on scanning all the old pictures I have lying around into my computer.

Thanks - I think I'll get it ordered today.

Does anyone know what the difference is between "Adobe Photoshop & Premiere Elements 9" and the full version of Photoshop?

[Brian]

Several hundred dollars. LOL!

Very funny, Brian. That much I knew.

I have used both. Its like the difference between MS Word and Word Pad. They do the basic same stuff but Phtoshop does a ton more and is not as user friendly.

Stick with Elements for all your basic image editing needs. If you have a few years to learn phtoshop go for it...

Thanks. That's pretty much what I needed to know. I appreciate it.
