Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Photoshop elements
Quite a disappointment after trying the real photoshop for a while, but still has a lot of the essential functions.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Photoshop Elements
I love this product! They have made some major improvements with it and I don't have to get the full version of photoshop to do the things I need to do for my photography business!


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very pleased
I am probably the furthest thing from a computer genius. I have had no experience with any of the PSE versions so I am starting fresh with PSE7. I have to say that I really do love it and have already created quite a few things using it. So far I am very pleased. If you have the previous version then you are probably ok. If you are new to PSE then I highly recommend it. I gave it only 4 stars because I find the "help" function to not be as good as it should be. But, I have taught myself just by playing around for a while. Oh, and I have Vista and do not find the program slow at all.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I'm thrilled
Count me as a thrilled ex-Corel (Paintshop Pro X2) user. After Corel decided to charge their loyal customers $50 for RAW file support updates I moved on.

I can't compare PE7 against PE6 and probably don't need to. Lots of users seem to be doing that already. I can compare against Paintshop Pro X2 though. You'll often hear Corel PSPX2 users take pride in their ability to get things done quickly without having to worry about Adobe's complicated workflow. "Let them have their Photoshop, we're getting real work done" is common. The other believe that has been held is that the Elements brand is for novices only, because Adobe won't ever add the truly powerful features from PS. I think PE7 destroys both these arguments, to be honest.

Organizer: I have about 5,000 photos and managing them hasn't been easy. Corel PSPX2's organizer is really just a file browser...functional but not outstanding. The big problem for me is that you click a directory and wait and wait and wait while the program creates snapshots for all of the photos within the directory. Because of this it is hard to dynamically navigate around in order to tag, move and sort photos. PE7 on the other hand, makes file organization a breeze. It takes a while the first time, to cataloge and create thumbnails. But after that you can search, tag, move, rename photos to your heart's content. I love the feature that lets you associate geographical coordinates with a tag. Once the tag is assigned to a photo, the photo now can be found on a version of Yahoo maps. Brilliant. Oh! And raw files from my Olympus E-510 are supported out of the box! No need to pay $50 extra to get this support (Corel, I'm looking at you).

Plugins: The other important feature to me is the ability to use photoshop plugins. Lack of plugin support in Lightroom is the primary reason I couldn't settle on that app. I have a bunch of great plugins that I've purchased over the years. They were always a bit wonky in Paintshop Pro, but they worked. However, now I'm seeing the true power of these plugins in PE7.

I haven't dug in to too much else yet, but I'd encourage folks to consider this program if you haven't yet. A trial is available from Adobe's website so you can see for yourself.

I'm running on an HP dv9000 series laptop, 4GB of RAM running Windows Vista 32-bit. PE7 runs smooth as butter.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - compare softwares
I was seeking info on Elements 7 vs. 6--per posts last evening and in comment to Ms. Daneman's review, and any help would be most appreciated, but thought anyone thinking about first time purchase might want to check out a site called Top Ten Reviews (reliability unknown as first time seen)which has a piece and chart comparing several dozens of features/components between 10 different editing softwares (Top Ten reviews/software/photo editing software-- Corel, Serif, ULead, acdsee, phot suite, foto finish, photo explosion, picassa, and photo impression). True enuf that Elements comes out No. 1 but a few others are very close. I checked out the comments on Corel, which altho apparently not the Professional version still seems too difficult/time consuming. But a couple of other come close. I asked Ms. Daneman whether she or anyone reading this, aware whether they have better tutrials/easier learning curves.
