Quick Fix offers sliders for common tasks such as brightness, saturation, sharpening, color balance, and red-eye reduction. Still, the three-level structure feels a bit clunky at times, especially when you’re forced to blunder through a combination of menu options and tabbed screens to find more-advanced options such as editing color curves.įull Edit provides essential controls similar to those in the full-fledged Photoshop, with advanced editing tools, filters, and layers. You can switch between the levels by clicking on tabs, and after a while I became familiar with which options are available at each level. The application continues to straddle the line between novices and more seasoned users, offering three levels of editing: Full Edit, Quick Fix, and Guided Editing. With the Plus membership, you get 20GB of storage, as well as the option to have Adobe send you design advice, new tutorials, tips, seasonal artwork, and templates as these are developed throughout the year. Adobe is also working on a mobile uploader that will let you post photos from your cell phone. When you edit your pictures, the changes you make will be synced up with your home PC-and similarly, changes you make on local photo files will be uploaded and synced to your storage. You can also access your account and online galleries from any Web browser. The free membership provides 5GB of storage and automatic backup of your images to ’s servers. The big news here involves the service, which incorporates Adobe’s Photoshop Express online editing service and offers two levels of membership: a free, 2GB Basic membership and a $50 per year Plus membership.
With Photoshop Elements 7 ($100, or $150 when bundled with Premiere Elements 7 video-editing software in private beta, due in October), Adobe provides ties to its new online service,, and adds enough fresh features to the desktop app itself to make version 7 a worthy upgrade. And online photo sharing is more popular than ever, with sites like Flickr and Facebook and programs like Apple iPhoto keeping people connected through photos, blogs, and blurbs. Adobe obviously pays attention to what’s hot these days.
