Summary: Photoshop Elements 2 Don't Be Fooled
Comment: I recently purchased Adobe Photoshope 2 and was very disappointed to find it only works if I load Mac 9.2 in the background. The specifications says it works with OSX, The product itself is as good as 3, but 3 works with OS X without any switching around

Summary: For me, better than the current heavy duty Photoshop
Comment: Practically equivalent to Photoshop 7 but much easier to use, this program is a steal, definitely worth a look if you can still find it. Very sophisticated yet simple to use. Most "fixes" are automated (if desired) and can be accessed via the "Enhance > Quick Fix" tab. Easily auto-levels, auto-rotates, crops, equalizes, focuses, sharpens, color adjusts, and has fantastic "equalize" and "fill flash" feature that can save many a low-exposure photo. You see the effect in preview form before any edit is committed to the photo. In "filters > artistic > watercolor", the program provides a super method for creating watercolor still lifes and portraiture with manageable versatility. In summary, Photoshop Elements 2.0 provides exceptional ability and value in what may be Photoshop's most easy-to-learn package.

Summary: It should come with a crutch it's so lame
Comment: It's not that this program isn't useful, it's that there are freeware photo editing programs that do everything this does and more in a more streamlined way. Before you buy this do a search for Photofiltre or any of the other freeware programs.
Why waste your money like I did?

Summary: Frustrating Product
Comment: I will never buy another Adobe Product. This program has a very steep learning curve. Once I got the hang of it I found that every time I want to use it I have to reinstall it, and it won't work if I don't let it call home for permission. This wastes a lot of time. Much as I hate to do so, I will go back to Microsoft.

Summary: Amazing- A Child CAN Learn it!
Comment: I am an advanced photo-manipulator and at age 11. It's tough to learn, but once you have, you can really exel. Some people are shocked when they discover that I only use Elements, and not a fancy version of Photoshop. I use this program EXACTLY, not even Version 4.0 or 3.0, and I can not explain how wonderful it is. Photoshop Elements is a great product for anyone wishing to begin a new hobby or start one, and to tell you the truth, I can't do a THING with Paint Shop Pro.
