Thanks everyone for the kind words!!! To answer the questions:
Thorsmomma - I purchased the Canon Digital Rebel about two years ago &
received the Photoshop Elements 2.0 software with the
camera. I just upgraded my camera
to the
Canon 20D & the SAME software was included with it.
Julz - I have loved seeing all of your pictures using your creative
software. In fact, after seeing some of them I have gone
into Photoshop to see if I can figure out how to do some
of your techniques using my software!!
Marie &
Skeeter haven The tutorials that I have just recently discovered (including
the filmstrip) are located at:
http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com...r/elements.php
They also have a forum where people post
questions & share various techniques!! Great info!
alaskayorkie - Thanks for the compliments on the pictures. I love my
Digital Rebel camera & am excited to start using my new
Canon 20D - they take great pics, but I find myself wanting
more & more lenses!
I, too, love that picture of
Kodah & Paisley's first meeting. Paisley was so scared of
Kodah the first couple of weeks & that is exactly how she
would look everytime Kodah came near her. Now they are
glued at the hip!!!
Sherry Lynn - I bit the bullet & ordered the new Photoshop Elements 4.0
software along with the video editing, too! Should be here
next week! The website I mentioned above has tutorials
for the new 4.0, too!! I almost splurged for the CS version
but feel like it has WAY TOO MUCH (especially graphics) &
I have my hands full with Elements!!! I keep learning new
things on it everyday!!
Yorkiemom1970 - Depending on how much you want to do, I have loved the
Photoshop Elements 2.0 software - & now they have just
come out with Elements 4.0 - to start out with. It has
SOOOO much you can do & takes a while to master (I'm
still trying after MANY MANY months - so I hesitate to get
anything more advanced than this right now!! )
THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE for your sweet words! I think taking pictures &
photoshopping has become an addiction to me! I have taken many wedding, Christmas, & various pics for people & then go to town with them in Photoshop. I have several projects I am currently working on for some friends & family. My husband says I need to start charging - but then I think that would take some of the fun out of it for me! I have to start working on
Kodah's photo for our Christmas card exchange!!!!
