Hi,
I would like Channels and Curves offered. I actually have them on 3.0, as a plug in more or less, but they won't work in 4.0.

Would be nice to see those layers added.

New here, and so far I am amazed at the fantastic photos I have seen. I am more than a little intimidated. :eek:

Hi there ...

... and welcome to the forum :)

A lot of people still keep PSE3 on their computers just so that they can access curves and channels ... sadly I don't think that Adobe will allow access again :(

Please don't feel intimidated by the images you see here ... its a learning curve and we all started way down at the bottom. The more you use Elements the better you get ... so do lots of tutorials and experiment.

When a new tutorial is posted we all tend to try it out ... so join in on the next one. Its all good fun :)

Hi Wendy, and thanks for the welcome.

It is too bad that Adobe might not let us have curves and channels on 4.0. I love converting to B&W so I will keep 3.0 on my computer as well.

I have used Elements to this point simply as a post processing for photos. More as a dark room, using as little as possible to achieve what I actually saw.

But have using Classroom in a Book for Adobe Elements 3.0, to learn of the special effects you can do. And looking around this sight, I see there are some very skilled Elements users, yourself being one of them. I hope to learn from you guys. :)

Thanks for the welcome Randy. From the looks of it, I do not think there is a question that could not be answered here.
