 Glad to get a stable Elements after years stuck with 3, 2008-06-07
I might be atypical in that I tend to use Elements for small scale graphic art: business cards, software icons, etc., and not for its photo editing functions. For this is it is adequate, using the various built in shapes combined with the various bevels, shadows, patterns, textures, gradients, etc. Not as good, perhaps has a full fledged vectored drawing program, but good enough for my purposes. These functions haven't been noticeably improved with this release.
What has improved is the product is usably stable on my Intel based MacBook running OS X 10.5.3., I had lost this stability over the years since the last major update to Elements, and I am glad to have it back. Not perfectly stable, but pretty good.
Also, I noticed that there are a series of video podcasts available in the tech podcast section of iTunes devoted to some cool techniques you can use with this version of Elements. Highly recommended.
 Excellent product, 2008-06-04
This is the best version of Elements. I tried older versions and did not make much use of them because of the difficulty using them. I highly reccommend Elements.

Very Pleased, 2008-06-03
I have used Photoshop (the full version) in the past but didn't use half of what it was designed for so I decided to give Elements a try. I downloaded the demo before I purchased just to be sure that it would have the functions I needed. I have been very pleased! It is easy to use and has a lot of functionality. I am able to do all the things that I did in the larger version of Photoshop but without the expense. As an artist, I use the filters more than anything else and was thrilled to see that all the same filters are available to me with Elements. If you find Photoshop daunting but want to edit photographs, apply filters to them, and have more functionality than iPhoto, give Elements and try. Oh yeah, it was cheaper by at least $10.00 to order through Amazon.com and I received free shipping. How can you go wrong with that?

 Adobe has forgotten about the mac, 2008-06-02
I cannot recommend this product due to these reasons:
- It takes over your entire primary screen with no option to resize.
- If you have a dual monitor setup like I have, there is no way to move the app to your second monitor
- Clicking on the desktop on the second monitor or in fact in any other application causes Elements to hide itself on the primary (this is awful behaviour for a desktop application)
- Use keyboard shortcuts to move around in Spaces... come back to the space with Elements.. and guess what, it has disappeared.
These may not sound like much, but when you're used to operating in multiple applications in multiple windows, this behaviour is extremely detrimental to productivity not to mention highly infuriating.

Bill, 2008-06-01
First time photoshop user. It has lots of nice features but not exactly intuitively friendly. I'm struggling to learn the features I'm interesting in. It would be great if a training video was included. I think I'm going to really like Photoshop once I learn the basics.
