I’m a web and graphic designer by trade so Photoshop is something I use everyday. I don’t usually recommend Photoshop to my web design clients because it has a bit of a learning curve and a large price tag. It’s just not for everyone. I do recommend Photoshop Elements often because it’s easier to use and less expensive. Right now you can get it for even less at Amazon.com. The software usually sells for $99.99 but for a limited time you can get your hands on it for $49.99 with a $20 rebate.
