Software Reviews of Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 (Mac) [OLD VERSION]Customer Review: Don't waste your money on the full photoshop, this works fine! Summary: 5 StarsI am a Photoshop user at work and wanted Photoshop for home use.
I am so glad I saved $500.00 and bought Elements instead. It does everything needed to manipulate my pictures. It has the majority of the features full Photoshop does, but some have different names, or are semi/fully automated.
I am a very happy shopper, and my photos look great at home!
Warning for non-Photoshop users, my friends tell me this is not an intuitive program. A tutorial of some sort is necessary!
Customer Review: looks good as replacement for phsp 7 Summary: 4 StarsHaven't used it much yet, but it has all the tools I'm used to and more.
Customer Review: Not on my Mac 10.5 Summary: 1 StarsUsed PS ad PSE for years and loved it. PSE does not and per Adobe will not work on Mac OS 10.5. Too bad, now I use GIMP
Customer Review: Works fine on intel-based iMac so far Summary: 5 StarsInstalled and works fine so far on Intel-based iMac with OS X 10.4.11. I will update if any problems arise.
Update 1/4/07: It has been crashing when I save. I suspect it may have been an update I downloaded, or maybe it just took me using it a while for it to start happening. I might try uninstalling it and then reinstalling it without getting the updates. I guess I'll just have to start saving for Photoshop instead. Bummer.
Customer Review: Very good, BUT . . . Summary: 4 StarsExcellent graphics editing application, probably the best available. My main problem with it is that some of the editing tools that used to be in the tool window in earlier versions are now buried a layer or two deep "beneath" related tools shown there. For instance, two of the tools most used by photographers are the dodging and burning-in tools. These are now found in an expanded menu after you select the sponge tool. Who would have thought to look there for them? I would have left those most used tools right in the tool box and buried the sponge under them instead. This is just one example of the user interface employed by Adobe here. As a Mac user, I am used to having the most handy devices readily available, in easy reach and accessed in a much more intuitive way like they are in most other Mac applications. I'm afraid that this version of Photoshop Elements has become more like the typical somewhat clumsy Windows applications that many of us are forced to use when working in that environment. Still, I give PE 4.0 four stars because once you figure it out, this is a truly excellent graphics editor.
