Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0
For digital photography hobbyists, you can't find a better editing
package than Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0. It has many of the features
that you'd find in the more expensive Photoshop version (except
for high-end features like color separations) for a fraction of the
price.
Adobe
Photoshop Elements 2.0 features especially geared toward the digital
photographer include:
• Red eye removal so your relatives and pets don't look
possessed
• Color, contrast, and brightness adjustment to fix a poorly-lit
photo
• Photomerge takes individual photos of a landscape and stitches
them into a panorama
• Lots of filters so you can feel like the artist you really
are
Some
describe Elements as bare-bones version of Photoshop, but for 98%
of people Elements 2.0 will do everything they need.

Photoshop Album 2.0
So, you've got a digital camera and you've taken lots
of pictures. What will you do with them? You could just dump them
on your hard drive but how would you find a picture of your favorite
pet or all the pictures from your trip to Paris? Never fear, there
is a solution for your digital image collection woes. Adobe Photoshop
Album 2.0 imports your photos with one click and allows you to organize
them using keyword tags. Keyword tags are visual representations
of user-defined categories. For example, you can tag photos of your
daughter across several different collections (your Paris vacation,
cookouts and graduation) and then view all pictures that feature
her on one screen.
Album
also has the ability to fix minor flaws in your photos such as red
eye removal, adjust brightness and crop photos down to frame them
better.
Once
you have a collection of photos how you want them, why not share
with your family and friends? With Album you can e-mail photos,
create slide shows, cards, calendars, and you can even order a hardbound
book of your photos online.
Album
is great for the beginning digital photographer or anyone who needs
to organize their photos.
