None of these quirks are a big deal, but to make full use of the application it’s best to explore all the drop-down menus to get a better idea of what’s available. Instead, I had to use a drop-down menu to choose whether I wanted to open it in an external editor or the native Photo Editor. Instinctively, I double-clicked on an image in the Organizer expecting it to open in the Photo Editor. Camera Raw wasn’t installed by default, for example, and had to be downloaded. Overall, Photoshop Elements is logically organized and easy to navigate. Collage and animated slideshow templates have also been updated. New content, including new backgrounds and skies, as well as new patterns have also been added. Included with the software are visuals that can be added to the corners of an image to add depth or use as ornamentation, like the foreground reeds seen here. I chose to mimic focus stacking instead with both the overlay and main image in focus since I couldn’t find any images in my archives that made an interesting combination. It has an option to adjust the overlay's blur to give a sense of depth, though it’s important to choose the right image to make it work. These include 'peek-through overlays' – elements such as flowers or plants that can be added to one or more corners of an image to frame the photo.

That said, Adobe has given Photoshop Elements 2023 a boost in performance and continues to take advantage of its Sensei AI technology to add features and make certain tasks easier.Īdobe has added new Guided Edits (and a search function for the edits), bringing the total to more than 87 step-by-step guides. What’s new?įirst released more than two decades ago, Adobe Photoshop Elements has reached a level of maturity that places many of its updates into the evolutionary versus revolutionary category. Project-oriented users, such as scrapbookers and craftspeople, as well as those who want to add artistic or fun effects to their images, often gravitate to Adobe Photoshop Elements for its creative content as well as its ease of use. Users can opt to edit photos on their own, utilize automatic adjustments or get assistance from the software’s Guided Edits. It's the only remaining Adobe product to come as a perpetual license, so if you like this version of Photoshop Elements, you can stick with it for years to come. With the power of Adobe Photoshop at its core, Elements includes many of the features of its high-end sibling but without the steep learning curve (or, maybe more importantly, the subscription commitment). Photoshop Elements includes playful filters and effects like these floating hearts (Credit: Adobe)Īdobe recently announced the latest version of its consumer editing software: Photoshop Elements 2023 ($99.99 or $79.99 as an upgrade).
