 Really a great product for the price June 15, 2008
It's truly amazing what you can do with this product. Are there a few features lacking that the professional version contains that a "nonproffesional" would actually use? Sure, but for the price difference, there are ways around the missing elements (google search almost always brings answers to these issues).
Drawing, editing, digital painting for less than$100--pretty good stuff!
 PSE 6 for Mac - finally comes of age June 11, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
It's taken too long for Adobe to bring a great product up to snuff for Mac users, but they've done it now. For enthusiasts/prosumers who like to "work" their photos in the post-production world, PSE 6 (Mac) works beautifully. When you are ready to step up from the basic editing capabilities of iPhoto, etc., this is definitely the product to use. All the basic editing tools are there, and the creative tools are excellent. PSE 6 (Mac) will help you take your photographs to a new level.
While there is still a learning curve, it's not as daunting as earlier versions. I'd highly recommend getting Scott Kelby's Photoshop Elements Book for Digital Photographers to sit beside you as you start using PSE 6 for Mac - very practical & helpful.

 Photoshop elements June 11, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The product has some great features. Very easy to cut out portions of a picture or to delete backgrounds. Unfortunately it does not come with a manual and it takes a while to catch on. Also it does not integrate fully with MAC, i.e. no close, minimize and scale buttons on the top left corner. If it does have these features, I have not found them yet. The lack of full integration is increasing the time on the learning curve. For instance, I kept clicking on the HELP feature displayed at the top bar and didn't get much help at all, only to learn a few days later that PS has it's own HELP located just below the MAC one.
So far, I like what I see on the program, it's just taking a long time to learn it. And, I'm not sure yet, but I suspect that PSP has more features, but I have a lot to learn before I can confirm this.
From my limited time on the program, I do like what I am finding and using. I wuld give it 3.5 stars for now.
A terrific program. June 9, 2008

I starting using the full version of Photoshop in the late 90s, mainly for my website. It was getting older and older, but I didn't have money to update it, so I tried Photoshop Elements 2. I was kind of shocked, it had absolutely everything I had ever used in the professional Photoshop, plus it had a lot more fun features, was much easier to use, and of course, very cheap (comparatively). I used Version 2 until the new Mac OS Leopard came out last year, at which point I found out that it was one of those few programs that wouldn't work any more in Leopard and Adobe wasn't offering any upgrades. I was kind of screwed, but when version 6 came out, I bought it. I'm not mad any more because Elements 6 is terrific and worth the money. I probably wouldn't have bought it and I'm so glad I did. I also bought the new version of Scott Kerby's Photoshop Elements book for Digital Photographers (I had #2). I highly recommend it.
The one thing I have always used Elements for is compressing photos for the web or for emailing. Definitely check that feature out if you haven't already.
I just got married and have spent the last weeks making amazing alterations in photos. I have put people who took photos into the shots they took. I took out wrinkles, fixed red eye, etc. In general I just made all the pictures look better, even the ones taken by professionals. And then when I was done, I used the batch function to compress hundreds of photos so they were all under one megabyte (I had some 35 meg shots in there!). All this stuff is so easy to do if you have the book. The thing I like about the book is that you don't have to really learn the program, you just go to the chapter that tells you what you want to do. It doesn't assume that you learned stuff in previous chapters.
Glad to get a stable Elements after years stuck with 3 June 7, 2008

I might be atypical in that I tend to use Elements for small scale graphic art: business cards, software icons, etc., and not for its photo editing functions. For this is it is adequate, using the various built in shapes combined with the various bevels, shadows, patterns, textures, gradients, etc. Not as good, perhaps has a full fledged vectored drawing program, but good enough for my purposes. These functions haven't been noticeably improved with this release.
What has improved is the product is usably stable on my Intel based MacBook running OS X 10.5.3., I had lost this stability over the years since the last major update to Elements, and I am glad to have it back. Not perfectly stable, but pretty good.
Also, I noticed that there are a series of video podcasts available in the tech podcast section of iTunes devoted to some cool techniques you can use with this version of Elements. Highly recommended.
