Rating: - * Big Improvements ... We had Photoshop Elements 2.0 for Mac and this is a whole new UI and a very slick program. It comes with a lot of graphics, etc. and takes up a bit of space but we find this covers ALL our Photoshop needs. We've worked with the full-on Photoshop and the learning curve is a pain, really. A big thumbs up for this. Rating: - * This Version Sucks ... From a Powerbook G4 with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 (Worked great and was fairly straight forward) compared to 6.0 that is way overly complicated for a supposedly home version. By Pixelmator instead, much more friendly. Adobe is a bunch of bloatware DRM infected crap like Microsoft is. Rating: - * Doesn't work with Leopard (OS 10.5.4 or above) ... If you have a Mac running OS 10.5.4 or 10.5.5 (or above) you should be aware that NONE of the Photoshop Elements software versions--including 6-- is compatible with it. It won't work. Rating: - * adobe photoshop ... Great product. It very easy to use when editing pictures. I used alot of different photo programs and this is one of the best. Rating: - * Excellent product with minor issues ... Photoshop Elements 6 (Mac) is a an excellent software and has a nice feature set for a product that is considered a lightweight version of Photoshop. I upgraded from PE2 and its worth it. An annoying issue however is that it is not fully compatible with Apple Spaces. It doesn't 'display' as expected when moving across Spaces and when I leave it to scan pictures in a batch (I have a Canon MP830) and move to a different space, the scanned images appear on the current space and not on the space where PE6 is active (defeats the purpose of Spaces). The software updater needs some updating itself too. Despite this annoyance though I still recommend this product especially if you don't have one yet or upgrading from a couple of versions older.
