PhotoShop & Elements

[Beth Haney]

PS 7.0 is a more advanced version; Elements is the "little brother". They run on the same engine and do many of the same things. Unfortunately, you did just get two applications designed for essentially the same purpose, with PS 7.0 being the more "professional" one that includes CMYK color options, which printers/publishers often require. Have you opened either or both yet? It's possible you could return one. There are people on this forum that use both, though, depending on what they want to accomplish. Have you ever used either one? (My guess is no.) What kinds of things do you want to be able to do?

Photoshop 7 also has an action feature.
