An essential adjunct - By: Audio Angel, 21 Aug 2008 
I was interestedin Photoshop Elements 6 but wondered whether I might end up paying nearly $100 for something that was not a lot better than iPhoto but much less functional than full Photoshop. In actual fact it is a significant advance on iPhoto for image manipulation & does everything I want just as well as the full version would.
The only downside I have encountered is that it is not intuitive to use & the included documentation is poor. To be fair, Adobe do recommend that you use their website Help, but I'd recommend anyone who does not have Photoshop experience to also purchase Barbara Brundage's "Photoshop elements 6 for Mac The Missing Manual". This saved me going crazyin the learning phase & even now that I am comfortable with the program I still go back to the book for advanced tips & work-rounds.
