Advantages: Cheap, easy to use

Disadvantages: Not as fully featured as other versions

Adobre Photoshop Elements 7 is another great, easy to use product from Adobe. It was easy to install, taking only around 15 minutes, and then it was just as easy to get to grips with...I was quickly editing images to a pretty professional level; and I am not particularly well known for my creative skills for things like this!
It is a cut-down version of the full Photoshop package which means it comes in at a much more affordable price point. However it still contains all the features you will need as an amateur looking for an introduction introduction to the world of photo editing. My colleague at work uses the full version of Photoshop and while it certainly has many extra top end features, I have never found PhotoShop elements to be lacking for how I use it.
Overall, I would definitely recommend PhotoShop elements for those making a start in this area.

Summary: A great entry level product which is sufficient for most, but high-end users may find it lacking.
