Hi,
I have photoshop elements 7 and was thinking about buying the 9 version. Is there much difference?
Thanks, Lisa
 
Well i have Elements 8 and it hasn't got layer masks but 9 has, i would buy 9 Lisa, ebay is a good place to get a disc only (without box) it's not a copy just sold loosely at good prices.
 
Elements has moved on quite a bit since v7, theres quite a few new things, and it's reasonably priced. Only you know if you need to upgrade (or can afford to) but if you have one of the newer cameras and use RAW then you'll probably find it worth it for that.
 
I use Elements 7 and downloaded a free "Elements 7 Hidden Power tools" add-on which, amongst other things, allows me to create layer masks in Elements 7.

You can get it here. (It's the first in the table, "Free Hidden Power 7.0". Also, the installation instructions are in the "release notes").
 
I was using Elements 7 and was deliberating whether it was worth upgrading to 9, but I have just upgraded to W7 and Elements 7 is incompatible with W7 so I have had to get 9, just waiting for it to be delivered.
 
I had no idea Elements 7 wasn't fully compatible with Windows 7. I've been using both together for some time now and hadn't noticed!
