Adobe Photoshop Elements 3 0 Windows

5 stars (Big step-up from 2.0) - Just returned from a workshop at the Santa Fe Photo Workshop. Was amazed to learn how much more I can do with Elements 3.0 compared to 2.0.

I must say that the "auto correction" operation, whatever it does exactly, seems really excellent.
