It has a familiar UI, it packs some serious power, it’s feels snappy, it’s not neglected by its developer, it consistently ranks high when reviewed by independent publications, and there are a ton of books, magazines, and websites that provide tutorials and step-by-step guides for about any task that you would want to use it for. Although I’m not a fan of the Adobe hegemony, Elements still remains my “go to” app for photo editing.
So Mac users these days have plenty of alternatives to Photoshop outside of Adobe, but that doesn’t make PS Elements a bad program, Adobe haters notwithstanding. The price is right, it is a true Mac app, and it’s powerful! (My only real complaint is the plethora of palettes that one has to deal with when using it.)
(I have version 3.3.) It is THE alternative to Photoshop (Elements or otherwise) for Mac users. It’s a handy tool to have at one’s disposal and it can manipulate files that other apps (including PS Elements) would choke on, but its GUI is awful, and for most people it’s not a real choice for an “everyday” photo editing app.Īcorn is a fine Mac app ( I have version 4.5.x) but it feels more like a paint app than a photo app. I have Graphic Converter (version 5 or so running under a virtualized “Snow Leopard”). I’ve downloaded Gimp several times and have always come away feeling, “Yuck!” Sure, it’s capable (and free), but why would you own a Mac to use something like that?! Just my opinion! :) Mac users are fortunate to have several good alternatives to Adobe Photoshop.
