I purchased a new printer a Epson 2000p, but that's another story, bundled with it was Photoshop Elements. I already have Photoshop 5 and 6 installed on my computer and was wondering if anybody has Elements if there was any need for me to install it on my system. Is there anything in it that I don't have in Photoshop?

Thanks CJ, I though as much but was not wanting to install it just incase it upset my system which is running quite well at the moment. I just hate fooling about with it if it's going well. I'll see if sombody I know wants the Elements CD. Thanks for your help

There is one/some plugs/filters which do not come with Photoshop - which are with Elements...which can be loaded into the Photoshop plugs folder for use in Photoshop.
Just don't know what they are or how useful...
And Elements may cause some minor 'problems' if a user has Photoshop previously installed (Mac or PC) - as some file associations and perhaps icons etc may be taken over by Elements - but these issues can usually be worked around.
It is a valid concern not to change things once they are running, although it can be limiting.

Hi Sanda
I recently have had a lot of computer problems including photoshop hanging up and locking up. I read somewhere on the Adobe board that more than one version of photoshop installed can cause this. I had ps5.0LE , elements, and ps.6.0 installed at the time. I removed 5.0le and elements and most of my problems (With photoshop) are gone. I currently have 6.0 and 7.0 installed and am having no lock-ups. (until "stimon not responding" rears its ugly head but thats another story).
Hope this helps.

I've installed Elements. So now I have Photoshop 5, 6 and elements installed. So far all is working well, right now I have both photoshop 6 and Elements open as well as being on the net. I've found the red eye removal tool quite useful in Elements so far. I think I'll uninstall photoshop 5 because I'm only using it on rare occasions and I should work in 6 most of the time, that's the only way I'm going to get used to it. BUt I'll keep elements on the machine for the moment too.

by MartyAHi,
I'm an After Effects using that wanted to be able to import PSD files with layers and Elements seems to work well (which is good since I can't afford PhotoShop right now).
However, I see that when working in Elements, I can't pull guides from the rulers, which is something...-

by martijnHi all,
I have been using PSE 3 with the Hidden Powertools (and the excellent book) for quite some time now, but I am wondering whether it would be worth it to upgrade to PSE 6.
My main interest would be the more advanced editing functions, and as most improvements in the...-
