Re: Photo Editing Software ... (Elements 13 )

Thank you, Jim -

For all of the good advice on the other recent threads, and for starting this one as well.

I have been using Elements 10 for quite a while, and find it more than adequate for my admittedly amateur needs.  I tried Elements 13 for about two hours, and then struggled for an hour to get rid of it in order to re-install E-10.

I didn't like E-13 AT ALL - maybe there is a setting to make it look like E-10, but I never stumbled on it. E-13's icons are much bigger, eating up a lot of valuable space that should be going to the main display.  Even worse, IMHO, was the lack of Color Variations / Highlights|Midtones|Shadows|Saturation within the Adjust Color function of the Enhance button (this MAY have been moved, but I couldn't find it).

These two issues alone were enough for me to give up on E-13.  Perhaps E-14 is better, but I'm not likely to take a chance on it - especially after E-13 proved so hard to completely get rid of in order to re-install E-10.
