If you’ve got the inclination and the time, I highly recommend a class to introduce the features, tools, and possibilities in Photoshop Elements. It’s one delightful program and amazingly easy to learn from someone who knows what they’re doing. Hope you had a fantastic Friday!!!<BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728583087900011692.post-77878091774005958092008-05-29T21:08:00.000-07:002008-05-29T21:08:00.000-07:00Thanks for sharing these.

You and your family have been in my prayers. I’ll try to visit tomorrow or Friday … but I’ve got to READ tonight to be ready for Book Club tomorrow. I’m taking a quick ‘dinner break’ at the moment. I’m sure you’d enjoy learning to do these things with photos. You already know how to do so much ;--)<BR/><BR/><B>Mar</B> – I’m happy to do so. I bought my copy at Staples last Thursday after class. It was on sale for $20 off and has a $20 rebate on top of that for those who can show proof of purchase for previous versions. I love a bargain!<BR/><BR/><B>Gypsy Princess</B> – Thanks! I’m assuming you’re talking about the WW Hub. It worked on my 4th try … but I’m still not sure why the first 3 times yielded the error message.<BR/><BR/><B>Olivia</B> – I hope you do. It’s really a pleasure to learn these techniques and I’m sure I’ll put the knowledge to use as time permits. <BR/><BR/><B>Hootin’ Anni</B> – Hehehe … blond it is (ya know I know how to do that now too)! I’d love to be able to do the things YOU do … and maybe after I complete all three Photoshop classes, I’ll be on my way ;--)<BR/><BR/><B>Sandy and Joyce</B> – Thanks! I’m amazed at how quickly the instructor has introduced so many tools in practical ways … so we can actually experience success right away. I need to ‘refine’ my skill and technique, but I’m delighted with our progress so far.<BR/><BR/><B>I hope you’re all enjoying the week and</B> having a delightful day! I appreciate you spending a bit of it with me here at Small Reflections. If I’ve not been to your blog recently, I’ll do my best to get there in the next couple of days … but this evening I’ll be reading in preparation for Book Club tomorrow afternoon.<BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728583087900011692.post-64729274564475873812008-05-28T17:28:00.000-07:002008-05-28T17:28:00.000-07:00You're learning such useful things!

She had us USING the tools from the start … and keeps stretching us with new things each week while reviewing things she’s introduced previously in the tasks she sets forth!<BR/><BR/><B>Phyl</B> – Once I load Photoshop 6 onto my computer and begin to play with possibilities at home, I’ll be able to think about ‘blog enhancements’ … but for now I’m barely holding on … falling farther and father behind on blog visits and email as well as ‘real life’ stuph. <BR/><BR/><B>WillThink4Wine</B> – I’m sure glad I finally signed up and started attending this one. It’s not so difficult to get out of the house at 7:30am any more … but 7 hours/week of class DOES eat into my ‘discretionary’ time ;--)<BR/><BR/><B>Joy</B> – I understand … and am sorry you’re experiencing difficulty accessing my blog. A few others have indicated similar issues, but I have no clue what’s up … unless it’s the increased use of photos in my posts? Perhaps I’ll need to cut back … or explore some other platform options? Of course … perhaps like the ‘gopher problem in my front yard’ … the situation will resolve itself if it’s related to Blogger Revisions and Updates. That’s happened before.<BR/><BR/><B>Karen</B> – Perhaps you can explore a class or two before you ‘retire’ … depending on scheduling. It’s always a good idea to keep yourself ‘engaged’ in learning new things no matter what your age. Someone left me information recently that ‘learning’ improves general health … especially in older folks like myself.<BR/><BR/><B>Mary (the teach)</B> – I send email with some specifics and hope it helps. Photoshop Elements is an abbreviated version of the more expensive & extensive Adobe Photoshop software ;--)<BR/><BR/><B>Carmi</B> – It’s always a pleasure to see what you’re up to! As for the WW Hub, I tried 4 times before I got a ‘working link’ in the Mr. Linky today … and did it the same way each time. Very strange indeed! I’ve owned Photoshop for a few years … bought versions 1, 2, and 3 … but never took a class before … just played with features trying to use the ‘help screens’ … learned to do a few simple things, but nothing like I’ve learned in the past two and a half weeks. I’m glad I finally decided to take a class. I just bought PSE 6 but haven’t loaded it on my aging computer yet.<BR/><BR/><B>Vixen and Jmom</B> – Thanks! Actually, I had no idea how easy it is to do these things in the latest version of PSE. Many were impossible or much more difficult to manage in earlier versions of the Photoshop software. <BR/><BR/><B>Randall</B> – I know what you mean. The only ‘clue’ is the ‘dated clothing’ … black & white photography … and ‘positioning’ of the two women. Thanks … I’m delighted with the things I’m learning.<BR/><BR/><B>SandyCarlson</B> – I’m happy to share a bit with my ‘readers’ here … and it gives me an opportunity to ‘review’ a bit between sessions. Who knew ‘school’ could be such fun as a ‘senior’ citizen???<BR/><BR/><B>I hope you’re all having a wonderful Wednesday</B> … wordless or otherwise. I enjoyed reading your comments this morning and am glad you found my sharing of interest today.<BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728583087900011692.post-34080456314178797762008-05-28T11:09:00.000-07:002008-05-28T11:09:00.000-07:00Thanks for the review of your lessons.

It's confusing. As best I can determine, a link is added when you leave a comment. I know, silly.<BR/><BR/>It blows me away how sophisticated today's photo editing tools can be.
