Question about Photoshop Elements, not sure where else to post at.

I am looking to be able to add layers and do some fun type editing for photos to use as backgrounds and media shows. I'm new to this. I am planning to add Photoshop Elements and was just curious if it does enough different stuff from iPhoto 11 to make it worth it as well as enough to avoid purchasing the bigger more expensive Photoshop programs. I am also wondering where to get good tutorials on learning to use it, if so. Any help? Thanks.

PhotoShop Elements will do what you want, and is a good complement to iPhoto. For learning it, I suggest Barbara Brundage's excellent Missing Manual for PhotoShop Elements (Macintosh).

Adobe also has lots of tutorials on their website.

  • I have a question about photoshop elements 11

    can i create templates on elements 11 of customize templates of skins on games with elements 11

    I believe that Amazon (the actual Amazon, and not semi-affiliated merchents) WAS a certified Adobe reseller. However, with the CC (Creative Cloud), I am not sure about that any longer - others can verify their certification.
    As CS 5 is discontinued software, I would NOT expect Adobe to be selling that version - anywhere.
    Research ANY reseller, and very, very carefully.
    Also, do gain the rights to manipulate and post ALL © material - that is not only smart, but also honest and ethical.
    Good luck,

    PS - you might also want to explore two other, current Adobe programs: Photoshop Elements 11, and Premiere Elements 11. They are often sold in bundles, for about the MSRP on one. Together, they will handle most Still Image editing needs, and also Video creation and editing. They are both very inexpensive, but powerful programs.

  • Question about Photoshop Elements 11, Windows 8, and new Dell Computer

    Since I bought a new Dell Inspirion 660 computer, running Windows 8, my Photoshop Elements 11 occassionally gives me an error message saying I cannot save the file because I do not have enough RAM.  I have 8GB of RAM.  I never had this problem on my Old Dell Windows XP computer.  Any suggestions?

    Try reinstalling the application and see if this works.

  • Question about Photoshop Elements 8

  • Best keyboard and mouse for typesetting and design (not sure where else to put this)

    So, we got a new Mac Pro. I don't think this keyboard is going to work so well for typesetting. Too little travel on the keys I think. And the wireless mouse.... it's OK but I definitely need something different.
    Pros and Cons
    Apple keyboard: Pros - The function keys at the top for controlling audio, ejecting the CD tray, screen brightness etc.
    Cons - You have to hold the "fn" key and hit F12 to get to the Widgets. Didn't have to do that with our G5 keyboard. Metal body.... I'm CONSTANTLY shocking myself on this thing from the static of the carpet. Key travel.... they don't go down very far. Not sure if that is desirable or not.
    Magic Mouse: Pros - Multitouch surface is nice for moving left and right when zoomed in on something or moving an image around. The other multitouch gestures are pretty cool as well. It's wireless, that's nice. Havent had one of those before.
    Cons - It just feels like crap in my hand. It doesn't have the standard "hump" that most mice have to fill up your hand.
    So... what do people think? Ideas? Thoughts?

    Well... turning on the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" makes the F12 go to the Widgets panel and F11 makes all the windows flow out off the edges so you can see the desktop, but then nothing else works so the F3 key that makes all the windows small and shows the different desktops doesn't work, the brightness keys don't do anything, the audio keys don't do anything...... argh. It's one or the other!
    Not true. The setting reverses the function of the Fn key. So to adjust brightness you have to press "Fn + F1/F2", and without Fn it does what F1 ought to do. (Barring what John says; the system takes precedence in stealing functions.)
    There is no way to get what you want: both sets of functions at once. Perhaps you could have a custom keyboard made, with two rows of function keys. (In the Good Ol' Days of WordPerfect 5, you could buy a custom keyboard with four rows of function keys, one for each of "Plain", "Alt", "Shift", and "Control" modifiers. Only for the truly lazy, too wary to press-and-hold a modifier key for a quarter of a second.)

  • Hi, i guess this is the right place to ask? Not sure where else to go...

    I have audio visualization on my pc, so when i play songs from MP3, random patterns etc are generated, this im sure you know.
    well, is there a way to turn my MP3 track, into a VIDEO so i can attach the Visualization to the song - and burn to CD, and put in my DVD player...?
    Thanks

    Definitely not the right place to ask. This has absolutely nothing to do with Java.
    But what you need is screen capture software (Fraps for example...go to download.com or google for other screen capture software). You'll need to use the capture software to create your video. Then use some kind of authoring tool to create your DVD, with the sound and video files put together.
    If you came to a Java forum for help with this, the solution might be a bit over your head...

    Yes, it's JS Scripting (the menu we are using is HVMenu)
    quote:
    When you say 'a couple of seconds to load', how are you
    measuring this?
    Visually, you can see the difference.

    We don't use that but I will look into what we use.
    But, this would still not explain why the same code loads
    instantly in FF but takes a couple of seconds to load in IE.

  • Not a CF problem, but not sure where else to turn

    First some info
    Intranet Site
    CF 7.01
    Windows 2000
    iis5
    Works really well and fast.
    Moved to a new server
    Windows 2003
    iis6
    In IE the javascript menus take a couple of seconds to load
    In FF the page is rendered with basically no load delay
    Does anybody have any suggestions, experience with this
    problem.
    I know some will say just use FF, but this is not possible.

  • Anybody know where to get Canon large format paper? (Not sure where else to put this)

    We have a canon iPF720, 36" wide printer. We were getting 190gsm 36" x 100' from Amazon but apparently that has been discontinued and replaced with 200gsm. I can't seem to find 200gsm on Amazon so I've been looking around and I can't find any. We need some in a hurry. West coast would be best for faster shipping. Anybody have any ideas on places I can call or check their website?

    Haven't gotten back here to say yet... but I got it to work with InDesign.
    Downloaded the driver and figured out the goofy driver settings from within the ID print window and printed out a poster. Worked like a charm. Soooooo happy. I don't have to deal with that crappy Canon PosterArtist software and I don't have to save the files as a JPG and convert to some PC to be able to print from that PosterArtist software. STOKED!

  • Photoshop Elements, not Photoshop CC

    How do I exchange Photoshop CC for Photoshop Elements in my Creative Cloud membership? I just downloaded Photoshop CC and realized when I fired it up that it's way more than I need.
    Thanks,

    That is an Adobe matter. This is the Premiere Elements (video editing) Forum.
    I suggest that you contact Adobe Chat immediately via the following link.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=photoshop-elements&topic=orders-refunds-and-ex changes
    I have preset it for Photoshop Elements - Orders, Refunds, and Exchanges. Alternatively, you could explore Photoshop CC at this link.
    When the link opens, click on "I still need help" to bring up the Adobe Chat.
    Further questions about Photoshop Elements, best post in the Photoshop Elements Forum here.
    Best wishes.

  • JSP default error page - not sure where this goes

    So I am not sure where the jsp section of the forums is but Ill post here ....
    Any ways I dont like the look and feel of the current default error page when you throw an error on a jsp so i created my own cutom error page and set that as isErrorPage="true" then in the header.jsp I placed errorPage="error.jsp."
    It doesnt work.
    I have a jsp, a servlet and the error page. the jsp sends information to the servlet which sends the result back. if that servlet throws an error then it should be displayed on the error.jsp page where I told it to...How ever - it just goes to the default error page.
    How do I fix this.
    Sorry if this doesn't belong here not sure where else to put it. and in theory - it is java.

    user8974754 wrote:
    Yes its shown in the jSP. so how do I make the servlet be like "oh...thats the error page I want to display the error on"I'm pretty sure you can't, since it's a JSP mechanism, not a Servlet mechanism.
    And even if it was possible, it's not something that could be recommended.
    A normal way would be to catch the exceptions in your servlet and handle them there (log the exception and redirect to an error page).

  • I updated my computer to 10.10.1 and now my photoshop isn't in my applications folder anymore. Even when I try to export photos from Lightroom, PS isn't even an option anymore. Not sure where it went or how to get it back! Thanks!

    Using 6-7 year old software that's no longer receiving updates & was never designed to run on 10.10 is asking for trouble.   That said, try re-installing PS and installing Java SE6
    Java for OS X 2014-001
    It might work.  But again it might not.
    Good luck!
