Picasa vs. Photoshop

I currently have a 30-day free trial of adobe Photoshop elements 9. I’ve been wanting Photoshop for a long time since getting rid of my Mac computer years ago. I minored in Art in college with an emphasis on graphic design so working with Photoshop was a given. I missed it. However now that I have it, I’m not quite sure what to do. There’s a learning curve after six years of wiping tushies and runny noses. Picasa is a fairly easy, user-friendly program. It doesn’t take much time to figure it out. It also doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles. Photoshop on the other hand has tons of filters & fonts to play with. I could be here all. night. long.

    we use the cheap version of photoshop. i think it’s that one you mentioned, elements. but as you can see from the blog, i don’t play with it much. jeremy uses it when he does pictures of the boys . . .which that time is coming up soon! i like elements and all tools it provides.
