 Fantastic program June 27, 2008

I have used this for a couple of years now and rely on it for all my photo needs. It is truly a fantastic program. The cataloguing function enables you to find any photo within seconds. I have approx 16,000 photos in my computer and this program has them all tagged for instant retrieval. The editing functions enable you to do pretty much anything and would be all you could want unless you are a professional. Its worth getting a book to help with the more advanced functions if you want to experiment.
 A backward step? January 10, 2008

I had used Photoshop Elements 2 for years and found it easy to use and very logical. Eventually I decided to upgrade to Elements 5 but soon decided that I did not like it at all, it is confusing and not just an updated 2. To cut a long story short I have reinstalled Elements 2 and it is like having an old friend back. Sorry, but for me Elements 5 gets one star and that is because it is not possible to award zero stars.
This is the one to buy January 9, 2008

Photoshop is now the standard for post-processing of graphics - so there is no question about whether you want/need to buy this product. The ony question is which version to buy.
If you are a professional, and can afford it, the full version is naturally for you.
For us mere mortals who have to pay for things out of their pockets, there is the choice between version 6 (the latest one at the time of writing) and this version 5.
From what I can tell, the version 6 has a couple (and only a couple) of extra features in it compared to this version 5. If you want to check out what those features are and whether you really need then, then look at the Adobe website.
If you don't really need the extra gizmos, then this version is under 20, compared to several times that for the latest version.
My tip is that you buy this version 5 and save yourself the extra expense. There's more than enough in this version to keep all but the most stretched professional happy for a long time.

This program has caused me more grief and wasted DAYS than any other in over 15 years computing. The exotic facilities may be great. But for example try organising your photos with the tags so that you can find them [wonderful] and then try to export to a different compter for backup. Nightmare! Ever lost several days work even though you thought you had backups? If not accept the challenge and buy this programme! Find the bugs - success guaranteed. Basically wonderful but definitely not intuitive and help is a nightmare.Prepare to learn - preferably enrol for a course - and you will probably be delighted.

I was able to manipulate my photography to such an extent that my mind was irreparably bent....I have nothing but admiration for the program but also harbour contempt due to the catastrophic mind bend.
