So I just looked online at Office Depot and they have Photoshop and Photoshop Elements...

I am still a student so I can get the Student Edition which is only $199...they have Photoshop Elements which is only $99...have you used this one?

Also, do you think its possible to pull everything off with Photoshop if I wanted to design my seating cards, menus (with pics), etc?

I have never use Photoshop elements but here is what I was able to find online

Reading through it, they are a few things i used that are not in Photoshop elements but if you are a beginner in Photoshop, you probably won't use those features anyways.

My suggestion is to send the article to your designer friend, see what she need and go from there.

Oh yeah, if you only have one specific project in mind, you can download the trial version and do it and not pay for anything (you will need to work quickly though)

But I you are planning on using the applications for more than one project, you may need to buy it....

Like I mentioned to you before, I designed everything (all my DIY) in Photoshop and sometimes I used Power Point and I always transported everything in MS word before printing... After my monogram (which had to be done in Photoshop because of all the layers), I could have done everything else in PowerPoint or Words, but it was just easier to do them in Photoshop

I used Photoshop for my grad announcements so I know a few things about it...

And I would use these programs for other projects as well...

I have been itching to buy it and I can get the student edition with photoshop, illustrator and something else for $300...vs buying one program for $200
