I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements when I had my Fu ji 6800Z and I have invested in various instruction books on the subject.
I have recently bought a Canon G2 and it comes with Adobe Photoshop 5.0 LE
What I need Advice on is whether I can:
Load Photoshop 5.0 alongside Elements or would I need to uninstall Elements before installing 5.0 LE
or is Elements as good as 5.0LE
Thanks Bob, From my first pictures from the Canon G2 it would appear that from minor tweaks from Elements the photo Quality is excellent, Therefore Elements may be suffient for me.
I am not (at least at this stage) interested in manipulating my photos as I prefer to let people see the photo as I took it.
At this stage I will not be installing Photoshop 5.0 LE
Hi TME
Elements or is that Elllllements? um?
anyway, Elements has all the main manipulation tools of PS5 and as such you will probably find you will never really find a need for both.
You have many of the filters like Unsharp and gaussian blur, etc. You can work in multi layers and render skies, etc. plus you gain some like red eye and photo stitch. So I would say stick with Elllllements (it's that l again) and have fun with that.
Cheers Baz
I tried installing LE alongside Photoshop 7 and failed miserably. My main reason for wanting to do this was to allow me to continue working on one photograph whilst scanning another. TWAIN drivers will block out Photoshop's use whilst it is scanning - which in my instance is a long time as I'm using a 4000dpi scanner.
If you had put LE on first P/Shop7 may have gone in alongside ok. You may have a twain-twunk conflict, you could sort out the P/Shop T/T drivers save the rest to a disc then delete all but photoshop drivers this stops them fighting each outher to open up the devices.
