  Duration of ownership: 2 Years

  Strengths: User friendly interface and easy of use.

  Weaknesses:Lack of ready made templates.

  Overall Evaluation: I have been using Photoshop Elements for 2 years and it was the best experience I ever had. Today Adobe released a lot of additional software which can boost it with even more features. So I can tell that I am a happy customer!

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Comes close to actual Photoshop in its power; more than enough for a serious amateur

  Weaknesses:Crammed with features that you will never learn to master unless you get some actual teaching

  Overall Evaluation: I like the charcoal-colored background when in "light table" mode, but beyond that cosmetic change, I don't see any earth-shaking feature upgrade compared to version 5. Still the most full-featured, widely supported and affordable alternative to Photoshop proper.

  Duration of ownership: 3 Months

  Strengths: Much simpler user interface (compared to Elements 2.0); guides available to assist you with common image issues (red eye reduction, sharpening, etc.); Magic Extractor function is neat

  Weaknesses:Runs more slowly than earlier version; still some complexity associated with certain program functions

  Overall Evaluation: I bought Photoshop Elements 2.0 when it first came out and found that it was quite powerful but had a steep learning curve. With Photoshop Elements 6.0, Adobe has greatly simplified many of the program's more common functions to reduce that learning curve significantly. Adobe has really improved the functionality of Photoshop Elements, and I strongly encourage those of you who are still using PE 2.0 (as I was) to pick up this version. You won't be disappointed.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Easy-to-use interface. Intuitive.

  Weaknesses:Slow start-up time.

  Overall Evaluation: I recently upgraded PC to Vista and, like everyone else, I was surprised to realize that I needed to upgrade all my software. This upgrade was relatively painless, though. This newest version of Photoshop Elements is quite similar to my previous 3.0 version. I am not a photo software expert. I purchased this primarily to enable loading my photos on my iPod. This program does fine in that respect and has more than enough functionality for what I use it for.

  Duration of ownership: 10 Days

  Strengths: Best photo software in its category

  Weaknesses:lacks user manual

  Overall Evaluation: It is my first photo software and it seems to have about everything a home user would need and then some. However, since it is not really intuitive a user manual should have been included. Learning curve is quite steep. A separate manual beefs up the price by about 20-30 dollars, depending upon the place of purchase.

This sophisticated image editing application adds editing modes that will appeal to beginners, but it doesn't have much new for people upgrading from previous versions.
