Tools And Upgrades In Adobe Elements 7

If you have been using Adobe software for a while you will probably agree with me when I say that each new version of Adobes software always contains something new and exciting. Unfortunately many people think that newer versions make the older versions obsolete. Fortunately they do not and you can continue to use any version of the software. Unfortunately if you don?t upgrade your version to a newer version you will undoubtedly be missing out on some of the newer features.

Adobes first foray into the digitial editing arena was with Photoshop and it soon became apparent to the software developers that they also needed a ?lite? version for those who only wanted photo editing capabilities without all the bells and whistles that accompany Photoshop. Giving into this need they created Photoshop Elements which allows people to easily edit their photos without needing loads of training first.

As with most programs, Elements has been reworked a few times and Adobe is currently releasing version 7. In my opinion Adobe Elements 7 is probably the smartest version of Elements ever. With version 7 Adobe has increased the number of tools available, making it more closely resemble the professional version of Photoshop. Now, when using Photoshop Elements, you are able to edit your photos just as if you had done it professionally with the Photoshop software.

Adobe Elements 7 is by the far the more user friendly version of all the previous versions of Elements. So what new things are in Elements 7 that are not found in the earlier versions of Elements? The following are some of the new features that you will find in Elements 7.

One of the main new features included in Elements 7 is an organizer that allows you to label your images for easy sorting and finding. The organizer also allows you to work on a variety of images simultaneously. One of my favorite new features is the fix button. The fix button combiners all of the most commonly used tools when you are editing an image. Some of these common tools you will use repeatedly include the smudge, blur and sharpen tool.

The create panel allows you to create items such as calendars, slideshows, etc. Using this feature you can take your image to the create panel and then decide on which project you would like to make. It is an incredible tool for making personalized gifts for friends and family.

The most impressive feature on Adobe Elements 7 is the share feature. With this feature you will be able to share your photo albums via the Internet using programs like face book and other community networks. You will also be able to send your image using the share feature via e-mail. If you wish to save your images on removable media the share feature allows you to copy your images on CD/DVD.

These are just some of the new features that are in Adobe Elements 7 which make it different from the other versions.
