Title: Photoshop Elements
Post by: chris626 on April 11, 2008, 06:17:04 pm
I dont know if this is the right place to ask but for a while now I've been asking my parents to buy me photoshop. Since they dont have the money to buy me the expensive one *photoshop cs 3 or 2* we went with photoshop elements 7. Would I still be able to like recolour clothing, make eyes with that photoshop? And other fun stuff :D

The short answer is yes.  You can still do recolors and eyes and whatever else.  It just doesn't have all the advanced features of Photoshop.  Although you can also do all of those things (and more) with Gimp (http://www.gimp.org/), which is totally free.  You can also use Paint.net (http://www.getpaint.net/index.html) which is a little more intuitive to learn, but it doesn't have the capabilities of Gimp and so I use it only for simple slider recolors or editing screenshots.  While I have alll 3 programs, (PS Elements, Gimp and Paint.net), I use Gimp almost exclusively for making Sims 2 textures.  The only time I use PS elements is when I use a tablet, because it plays nicer with mine than Gimp does.
