So far I've only been reading the adobe.photoshopelements@adobeforums.com
forums. Then I found a link to this forum. This is better. :)

I'm a rather frustrated user of PSE 6.0 and am hoping 7.0 will be a less buggy program. I'm mainly referring to the organizer portion. The editor is marvelous as that is what Adobe does. I wish I could use some other organizer but I have too much time invested and have ordered 7.0 only because I hope it will be a cleaner DB product. Mainly I hope for a 100% backup facility which keeps itself synchronized with my computer as my pictures are my life.

I do a lot of gardening/landscaping and keep a library of my plants and several hundred orchids as they bloom in pictures.

I live in Naples, FL but normally travel using our coach during the summer. The price of fuel and some medical problems have kept us here this year for the first time and I can tell you that it's HOT and muggy. Presently, Fay brought us so much water that the mosquitos are breeding like never before. They are havig a ball. I don't go outside unless I have to right now.

I read about training courses here. Where? What?

Welcome aboard, Fred. I love Florida...have been there twice in the springtime...loved the Keys, the air boats, the entire gulf coast...well, just about everything. I look forward to seeing photos of your plants/flowers.

As soon as I found this forum, I joined over at: http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/

The tutorials are awesome...written and video. I learned/am learning tons. Can't believe how far I've come with PSE in just 8 or 9 months. Well worth the money.

I found that also and joined for two years mainly because I figured it subsidizes this bord. Now all I need is the time to take the lessons. ;)

Welcome to the forum. I highly recommend a mosquito repellant called ultrathon made by 3m(I'm not an investor). Have literally stood in a cloud of the pesky things without getting bit.
