p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Need to updgrad PP Software - Advice please | |
Hi everyone,
I hope I can get some good advice for my situation. I am an amatuer photographer although I do get paid for some senior photo shoots. Frankly, my post processing skills are pretty poor. I currently have a Dell Inpsiron 530 desktop with Vista, Lightroom 3, PS Elements 6. I shoot mostly jpg. For my normal daily shooting, many times I just make some quick changes in Picasa because I find it so intutive and straight forward, and quick. Recently, Elements stopped opening for me. I tried to re-install it, but it seems the disc is bad. So that prompted me to think it was time for an upgrade.
I was looking to upgrade to the current version of Elements 13, but it seems it can't be used with Vista. So, then I thought that maybe I should go with the Cloud monthly subscription? I'm a budget concious person, so comitting to a monthly program, especially where I won't understand or use 5% of the functionality of it seems maybe not the smartest route. Can I even do the monthly method with Vista?
What is the negative of TRYING the monthly route? If I get 4 months in and decide it's not worth it, would I lose abilities to access my edits?
I'm honestly overwhelmed just even trying to figure this out. Thanks for any guidance anyone can provide.
