Is Photoshop Extended a standalone software ? Is Photoshop Extended a standalone software or do I need Photoshop CS3 in order for it to be of any use to me?

http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshopextended/ It says that it is two editions thus implying two different versions. Sorry that nobody replied to this. Kind of rude isn't it?

I know the lay out a little bit already after learning some of the Photoshop Elements layout. I haven't found it too complicated and here is the reason. I watched about 20 hrs. of Tutorials on You Tube and adobe TV. Anthony Morganti, Tim Grey, Robert Rodriquez Jr. (make sure it's Jr.) and others I can't remember the name of right this minute. There is a lady on Adobe TV (free too) that goes through the whole program, one thing at a time. B & H puts free tutorials on You Tube to promote sales. I just sat and watched them "develop" their pictures and enjoyed it. After awhile I became familiar with the program tools for developing and can do quite a bit with it just from watching other people work. It's a great program. Photoshop will do a lot of stuff that Lightroom won't do and Lightroom does a really good job bringing out the best in your photo's. I would say you probably are going to need both programs eventually. If you shop around you can find Lightroom for around a hundred and Elements for a little less. Both compliment each other nicely. Lightroom was the most important for me and it's not a pixel editor so it is non-destructive to the images. Photoshop Elements will allow you to play with the photo's, copy and past thing form one picture into another, edit badly damaged photo's and a whole lot of stuff. Lightroom allows color manipulation, sharpening, all kinds of enhancements to you pictures. I think it was pretty easy to learn the way I did it. Just watching videos until I understood the basics, then playing with it, then going back and watching specific tutorials on certain things when I need to.

officially Via Photoshop: Photoshop Elements 11 (US$99) is designed for people who are just getting started with digital photo editing, and delivers powerful yet easy-to-use options that help you organize, edit, create, share, and help protect your personal photos. Photoshop CS6 (US$699) is the professional standard for creating and manipulating powerful images, and Photoshop CS6 Extended (US$999) delivers everything in Photoshop plus tools for creating and editing 3D images and objects. [Both of these versions have recently been replaced by Photoshop CC, which is available by subscription (US$10-20/month), and has additional features compared to CS6.] In short if your doing more the a beginner photo work ....." I couldn't do without CS6... see applebysanimals on the net you'll see why. I hope this helped and Good Luck

Sadly, no.It was my go-to photo editor up to this point but not no more. I'd say I hope this helps, but I have to assume it disappoints. For what it's worth, I have found PhotoScape to be an alternative satisfactory enough to keep me going.

I don't know how it is with CS3, but if you contact Adobe Support, they will do a one-time same-version (CS2) platform swap for you, switching you from Windows to Mac. You can then purchase the Mac CS3 upgrade once you have been switched over to the Mac platform.

To be honest, Photoshop Elements isn't all that great compared to the other Photoshops, at least not in my opinion. I really recommend, if you're really into artistic stuff, getting Adobe Photoshop 7 or higher (I use CS2 myself, and have for a long time, though I've never tried CS3+)... Also, there are free programs all over the internet such as openCanvas and GIMP. I don't think this exactly answered your question, but, I just thought it was something that could be beneficial to you. (: download links: openCanvas1.1(the only free version): http://wistinga.online.fr/opencanvas/ GIMP: http://www.gimp.org/

Yes, I use it with Win 7. The only problem I have is that it sometimes doesn't open properly. I'll click on the icon, and it will act like it is opening, but the program doesn't appear. I just open Task Manager and close the Photoshop program, and then reopen it. I have noticed that if I open a graphic file by telling it to "Open With... Photoshop", it always seems to work fine.

Hello, I had a demo version for Photoshop and I had no problem with it so I think you're good:)

If you are going to buy Photoshop Elements and have Windows 8** already on your computer, I would recommend you get the latest version of Photoshop. I believe elements 9 would work under the compatibility mode setting; but, you would not have the best or the most current version of Photoshop . There are a number of updates that make the program work much better. Best to get the latest that is written to work with the latest windows OS.

Don't get hung up on the software. Its a trial version that expires after awhile. I was disappointed in that. You will need a master to work with in the duplicator. If that's not a big deal then you won't need the software. Remember it won't duplicate copy protected discs. If you do need software for your master at least you can try out Nero.

To Pat and J.Crosby, In my opinion, do youself a favour and don't go anywhere near Photoshop Elements 6 (PSE6). I paid for an upgrade from an earlier version and have wasted my money. The program crashes continually to such an extent it is unusable. From my googling on the internet this is the experience of numerous other people. There are no solutions I can find on the Adobe site and although these complaints seem to have been posted since PSE6 was first brought out there are no upgrades or patches to fix what are a myriad of problems. A number of people have complained that the program worked initially and then started continually crashing and that has been my experience. I won't be buying more Adobe products until they show a bit of customer care and isuue fixes for this mess. I have downloaded and installed a trial version of Pro Photo X2 and so far it seems stable. PSE6 may have more bells and whistles but that is not much use if they are unusable due to continual program crashes.

I'm on Windows 7 / 64 Bit, but don't scan into Photoshop. It works great scanning into Paint.NET.

I have Elements 5 and Paintshop Pro 8 (and 7). All are very good, but the emphasis is different. I use Elements for processing my DSLR photos using the included Adobe Camera Raw. It is reasonably easy to use and the quality of the results is excellent. I use the PTlens plugin to correct for lens defects and Elements works well with this. I very occasionally like to use a feature that Adobe has left out in order to avoid competing with full Photoshop. Examples include Curves adjustment layers and fully automated batch editing. In this case I switch to Paintshop Pro, which invariably does have the missing feature. If you don't know why you would need these features, you probably don't! I don't use the built in Organiser, because I started using Picassa (free from Google) for this purpose and I see no reason to change. For design work, such as web design, I would personally choose to use Paintshop Pro, because its feature set is more complete, (Paintshop Pro 8 is roughly equivalent to Photoshop version 6), and because those advanced features are more easily accessible. Other people that I know would choose to use full Photoshop instead, and I can understand their point of view. Photoshop Elements needs quite a powerfull (i.e. new) computer, if it is not to seem slow. I understand that this is also true for the latest Paint Shop Pro. Finally, you can download both of these products for a free month's trial, so why not try then out and make your mind up after that?

Hi: It has Photoshop CS6, IDesign CS6, Illustrator C6, Powerpoint, Dreamweaver, Adobe Bridge, Adobe Flash and a bunch of other Adobe products that I don't really use. But it's totally legit and worked perfectly when I installed it on my MAC. You can email the seller directly - very easy to work with and will clear up any questions you have. The only thing you cannot do is register it as the # of registrations have been maxed. I didn't care about that. I just didn't want to have to buy that rip-off monthly subscription from Adobe. PS Mine is not on a disk, it's on a tiny flash drive.

Hi Alicia, This is Clive from EZbackgrounds. For this particular package, you do need some version of Photoshop, whether it's Elements, CS series or the new CC cloud version. We do have a version of this package for Corel PaintShop Pro. If you enter this number, B0081P09TI, into the Amazon search engine, it will take you there. We also have a backgrounds-only version that can be used with nearly any image editing program. You can find that package by entering the number B001G1JUV2 into the Amazon search engine. I should mention that currently we only have tutorials for Photoshop products, but equivalent tools and functions are similar and relatively easy to deduce. We also offer free one-on-one email technical support. I hope this answered your question. If not, or if you have any other questions, feel free to contact us anytime. Best Regards, Clive at EZbackgrounds

I have Adobe Photoshop Lightroom installed on my wind and it works fine except side menus dont have much room to expand cuz of small resolution, so i get tired scrolling those menus up and down using touchpad, maybe its easier with external mouse but I havent tried it. So I have it as a backup for editing photos if I dont have access to my desktop.

After you install it to your computer you'll have to use it with a photo software for example I have Photoshop Elements 11{any program should work}. Photoshop Elements will recognize it , and just use it as pen instead of a mouse. oh by the way This does come with a earlier version of Adobe Photoshop Elements{I'm not sure which one, because I didn't install that version , because I already have PSE 11}. Comes with something that looks like a UBS Card, that you plug into your Computer UBS...I leave mine in all the time. I don't have the manual on hand right now, I have to look for it tonight when I get home but, if you need more info...Please let me know.
