Hi all I am new to this but I have Picture It 2001 and Picture It Photo and Adobe Photoshop Elements and PSP 7. I am intrigued at the fact you can add embellishments etc to pages but see that the tutorials all use Digital Image Pro or Picture It 2002 Platinum. I wondered how much these programs differ. I went to Amazon to buy Digital Image Pro and there were 2 used ones on sale and the one review said it wasn't really worth getting! Any advice gratefully received!

welcome! looks to me like you're all set! i only use photoshop myself. can't tell you the differences, but you certainly can use any of the ones you already have. there are tutorials for photoshop, picture it, and paint shop pro under tutorials here, did you see them? you can do a whole lot in any of those programs, so i don't think you need more. unless you just want them all! that might be nice too.

Hi Kimmy - I used PIP 2001 forever but have now upgraded to DIP (DIP is only $25 right now if you have a previous version on Amazon) I highly recommend upgrading to DIP. Most of the tutorials in the PIP/DIP section can be done on 2001 as well (except for the ones that require plug-ins). Happy Scrapping!

I am in the UK so DIP is £45 here!! I have ordered it from Amazon and the Scrapbook Factory Deluxe just to see what that is like. I did manage to do some things in PIP using the tutorials which I was pleased about! Thanks for your advice.
