Good Morning!

My dh bought me a new Awesome computer and he got Dell to throw in Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0 and I have no idea how to use it or what it really does.

Does anyone know that can help me open my eyes to this awesome program? At least it looks awesome!

TIA!
 
Photoshop Elements is a photo editing/retouching program. It retails for about $100 usually. It has less features and capabilities than the full version of Photoshop, but is plenty powerful for typical home users. I suggest checking out the manufacturer's page about it: Adobe - Adobe Photoshop Elements
That page has links to user forums and training pages.

I just got that program a few weeks ago to do digital scrapbooking. It is so much fun!! It is a little daunting at first, but once you learn some basic things, it gets much easier. Feel free to email me with any questions you have and I can help you get started. I had a friend that I would email with all my questions and it made learning much easier. My email is [email protected] .

Have fun!
