Photoshop Elements or CS

[Andi]

Does anyone know if you need the full version of Photoshop CS or will the lighter version of Photoshop Elements suffice to add new colour schemes with Planemaker

Many thanks

Elements should be fine. Gimp is also a great alternative!

+1 to Gimp, plus Gimp is also free.

 

Worth bearing in mind you don't have to go for the latest and greatest.  I recently picked up a copy of Photoshop Elements 7 off ebay for $20, a fraction of what Elements 11 would cost.

Going for the latest version doesn't necessarily make sense if you're not going to use it to its full potential.

That's the thing: 70% of the work I do in Photoshop (CS6) is work I could do in CS3!

You need to be an "existing customer" to download that CS2, according to the sign-in page.
