gilding the lily:
I thought this program would simplify and augment PSE6, but it doesn't. To put it simply, you cannot gild the lily. What PSE6 can do in 3 steps, this plug-in manages the same task in 8 steps. Soooooo, why bother?
best photos ever:
Essentials for Adobe Photoshop Elements.
This a very good product. It has helped me greatly to make use of my time after I retired.
Fast shipping, great product:
This product was shipped quickly and arrived faster than I expected. It was easy to load on my computer and after watching the introduction video, it is easy to use. Dont be fooled by others saying its not easy to use.....it is and a great product too. I'd encourage anyone with Photoshop experience to purchase this product. It came with an automatic upgrade to the newest release.
Photoshop plug-in:
This adds 4 plug-ins programs to Photoshop: there's an 111 page manual that can be printed from disk. Offers 4 alternatives to commonly used functions: improving image quality, enabling fine detail in up to 400% enlargements, selecting images, and framing pictures. Installation seems to be major hurdle.
