in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

I'm looking into buying a photo editing program, and need some ideas, thoughts, experiences? I have paintshop and photoshop. Still getting used to photoshop though.

TIA

    Lightroom is my primary editor.  Photoshop comes second. 

    Try looking for tutorials online.  I personally think you should be using one of the two.  You'll outgrow anything else, so you might as well start with them. ;)

    Is lightroom made by Adobe and is it expensive? You use regular Lightroom? I've heard of lightroom 2 as well that's why I ask.

    I'm glad you posted this- i've been wanting to get into photoediting but not sure where to start and if i'd even have time! photoshop costs so much money too I worry I won't be able to get into it and figure it out- thus wasting my money

    I use Lightroom 2.2 and yes it's from Adobe.  I have also used previous versions.  There are more tools and features in the newest version.  I believe the adjustment brush and clone/heal tool is a couple of them and they're some of my favorite features as I no longer really need to use two programs to work on one image anymore.  There are free (30 day) trials available.  I recommend downloading trials before buying any product. 

    There is also Adobe Photoshop Elements.  It is under $100 (I think it's like $75) and it has many features of the full version of Photoshop, plus it's great for a beginner.  I haven't used it in a while, but I was impressed for the price.

    I do not like Paint Shop.  It's not meant for photographers.  It's meant for teenage girls who want to make wallpapers and icons. lol

    Thanks for the info, I'm going to look into Lightroom and play with Photoshop a bit more.

    I use Lightroom.  It's so user friendly.  I've used Photoshop Elements, and while I liked it, it's just not as simple to use as Lightroom.
