Summary

I trust that this penultimate chapter has helped you iron out any residual questions you might have about the features found in Adobe Photoshop Elements. This chapter has covered most of the basic and commonly encountered problems in the program. Speaking from experience, you'll find that any problems you come across derive from either your computer operating software or mistakes that were made while shooting, rather than a failure of Elements. Now in its sixteenth version, and continually improving and upgrading, Elements provides a very stable platform on which to work.

In the next chapter, we will summarize Elements' common features: all of its tools, panels, filters, menus, and project opportunity features.

The upcoming chapter will also act as an important reference point for you to visit if you ever need a little more information on certain tools and functions you may be unfamiliar with.
