CURRENT REVIEW OF PHOTOSHOP
PhotoShop is a great tool for users of all skill levels. Recently, we have seen an update in the form of PhotoShop Elements version 5.0, which offers features such as scrap booking, multi-page image files, flash web photo galleries, map plotting, and curves commands. Priced between $40 and $60, this software program is loaded with new features while maintaining some of the older, favorite features as well.
Although PhotoShop has introduced updates in the past, this particular version has gone beyond the norm by offering outstanding image editing, sharing packages, and organizing. For instance, one of the greatest features added is the Organizer. With this feature, you can create virtual stacks of like photographs, which means unnecessary space is not being used in a browser window. In addition, this feature is capable of analyzing the time stamp, along with visual content of your photographs. With the analysis complete, recommendations are provided regarding image stacks.
Even the Flash Web photo galleries have caught user's attention. Using the organizer's capability of plotting photographs on a calendar, the gallery allows you to see where the photographs should go by using them on a Yahoo! Map. If for some reason your photographs are not connected to GPS metadata, then they could still be placed in the map window directly with a simple drop-and-drag action.
You will also find the PhotoShop Elements version 5.0 offering a refined Editor component. In this case, a special Adjust Color Curves command allows you to reduce the gap slightly between PhotoShop and PhotoShop Elements. You will even discover a new feature that gives you much more tone control, especially when it comes to converting something in color to black and white
We also see a growing number of people taking interest in scrapbook creation. In fact, scrapbooking has become big business with beautiful albums, colorful or themed background designs, cutouts, stickers, and more. With Photoshop Elements version 5.0, the Artwork and Effects pallet provides the opportunity to use all types of new and exciting themes, each customizable so you can show off your photographs with professionalism.
Keep in mind that the new features mentioned are just a few of what you will enjoy with PhotoShop Elements version 50. The bottom line is that if you were looking for an integrated package that is designed to manage the organization, editing, and sharing of your cherished photographs, you will be thrilled with the results.
