I am viewing it now in Chrome on windows, and also have no issues, but I will keep your comments in mind.

But I am utilising Chromium on a machine running version 8.x of Ubuntu and the design aren't quite kosh er. Not a important deal, I can still essentially read the articles and explore for info, but just wanted to inform you about that. The navigation bar is kind of hard to use with the config I'm running. Keep up the good work! Hey I just wanted to let you know, I really like the composition on your website.

After attending a couple of photography trade shows, the funny thing is that most Mac owners seem to be using lightroom / photoshop over aperture. Might be something to do with the vast range of websites / books / support dedicated to lightroom and photoshop.

Happy days :-). It did 95% of everything that I needed, but one of the things that kicked me upstairs to Photoshop, was winning a set of Custom Actions at a wedding photography trade show. PSE does not support actions unfortunately. And yeah, the price is a killer... much has already been written on this: http://www.amanwithapencil.com/adobe.html Best plan is to try and buy boxed product if travelling in the US, or perhaps you might still be in education ;-) I was a long time photoshop elements user as well, buying Elements 3 and then 5 in the days when you could buy and download directly from the Adobe.com website in $.

The one major annoying problem with it is that the organiser tends to crash rather alot, at least in vista anyway. I haven't managed to crash the editor yet though. Gimp has a bit of a learning curve to it. There seems to be more support out there for the Linux version though. It takes alot of getting used to. I think I'lll be sticking to elements. At €99 it doesn't break the bank but it's a long way up there to €800 for CS3. I have been using Photoshop elements for a while now and I find it’s really really good and useful.
