Chapter 13: Photo projects

Project basics

Elements Organizer and Photoshop Elements provide quick and easy ways to be creative with your photos. You can use

your photos to create photo books, greeting cards, calendars, collages, and CD/DVD jackets among other projects. You

can complete some projects in Elements Organizer. For other projects, you select the photos you want to use in

Elements Organizer, and then complete the project in Photoshop Elements.

Click Create to view a list of projects that guide you through the process of using professionally designed templates to

create your own unique project. When you complete a project, you can either share it online, or print it on your home

computer or through a professional printing service.

Your projects are displayed in Elements Organizer. The project file and related subfolders that contain the document

or web page files for each project are created on your local hard drive. To maintain the link between these project files,

subfolders, and page files, avoid moving them using Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac). Instead, use the Move

command in Elements Organizer.

You can share projects in various ways. For example, you can burn a slideshow onto a CD. You can also have your

projects professionally printed through Adobe Photoshop Elements Online Services.

Note: Projects from previous versions of Photoshop Elements might not open in the current version. You may have to use

a previous version to open some projects.
