opportunities. With work and time with the grandkids, free time sees to be in short supply.

^^^Lainey, FWIW, I have Photoshop Elements, and I find it more than adequate for my meager photo manipulation requirements. Plus, it's a lot cheaper than CS4.

I've heard it's much cheaper, and I'm sure it would work fine for me as well.

It's on the "to do" list. The free Google Picasa has worked well for me so far. Just thinking ahead.

I wouldn't have spent the money on Photoshop CS4 unless I had to. Trying to learn it only during classroom time was not possible for me so I got it for my home computer. It can do lots of cool things that I've barely scratched the surface of. At least with proof of student status, I got a hefty discount.

It's spring time around here.

^This is the same rose. I think it'll open tomorrow.

Nice pics! I won't see any hummingbirds for about two months.

Don't you just hate it when new parents keep posting pictures of their kids?

I love seeing your kitty photos, Lainey. I adore my Zoro (14-years old) and tolerate my Crystal(13-years old). I'll have a kitten again someday, but in the meantime I'll enjoy yours.

Thanks, Patty. She's really a great cat so far. Friendly, affectionate and full of energy. Wish she wasn't so full of energy around 5:00 AM.

I sent the shelter an email with some pictures today. They were glad to hear/see that she is doing well.

Not as long as the kids are cats

I have Photoshop Elements 9 and it's great. I -had- a full version of Photoshop before the big computer crash but lets just say I did not have the disk to re-install

Most everything I could do before I still can, and I got the legal copy of Elements for just $60 after a bit of time looking online for deals and coupon codes. Was quite pleased to save the $40 over what Adobe wanted to charge me.

Very cool flower pics Patty. I love the yellow ranunculus. Do they come in Suzuka blue?

Those are some of my favorite flowers.
