[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 137197, member: 9521"] You know what, I've read and heard that statement, too, and I used to believe that. But the more I learn PS the more I see the power of PS demonstrated in the tutorials I've been following the less I believe that's true. I think if anything Elements is designed for people not willing to take the time and put in the effort to learn PS, so they water down a lot of the portions utilizing layers and masks and as a result you're only tapping into a small section of what PS has to offer. And it may also be true also that when they say "More for photographers" they're meaning the dad who's taking pictures of his kids or the grandmother who is scanning in old photos, not the type of people who spend days thinking about how to photograph a certain subject and then once captured spend hours pouring over the exact tweaks to give it that right punch. So I think we may be getting a little lost on the term "photographers" and indeed, elements may be more for photographers but maybe not the kind of photographers you and I are.....or not. ;) [/QUOTE]
