Photoshop CS3 Extended vs. Photoshop Elements 6.0?

No. I have to assume these are pirated, else you likely wouldn't be asking? The primary difference between elements and full PS is access to alpha channel (and other channel related info), plus several other limitations and differences.

They'll run about the same. I've got Photoshop CS - no problems at all for what I do. Your best bet would be spend $50 and get more ram.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
