Summary: An essential adjunct
Comment: I was interested in Photoshop Elements 6 but wondered whether I might end up paying nearly $100 for something that was not a lot better than iPhoto but much less functional than full Photoshop. In actual fact it is a significant advance on iPhoto for image manipulation and does everything I want just as well as the full version would.
The only downside I have encountered is that it is not intuitive to use and the included documentation is poor. To be fair, Adobe do recommend that you use their website Help, but I'd recommend anyone who does not have Photoshop experience to also purchase Barbara Brundage's "Photoshop elements 6 for Mac The Missing Manual". This saved me going crazy in the learning phase and even now that I am comfortable with the program I still go back to the book for advanced tips and work-rounds.

With it, you will: learn to import, organize, and fix photos quickly and easily; repair and restore old and damaged photos, and retouch any image; jazz up your pictures with dozens of filters, frames, and special effects; learn which tools the pros use - you'll finally understand how layers work!; create collages and photo layout pages for greeting cards and other projects; and, get downloadable practice images and try new tricks right away.This full-color guide starts with the simplest functions and progresses to increasingly complex features of Elements.If you're ready for the more sophisticated tools, you can easily jump around to learn specific techniques. As always, author Barbara Brundage lets you know which Elements features work well, which don't, and why - all with a bit of wit and humor.
