Photoshop Elements' creativity tools let you present your photos in creative, entertaining ways. Use flexible layout options as a starting point for your creations: choose a blank slate, basic frameworks, or professionally designed themes. Create memorable keepsakes in so many ways: Create custom slide shows, cards, album pages, CD and DVD covers, scrapbook layouts, photo books, prints, Flipbooks, and much more. Take advantage of Flash technology to share your photos in interactive web galleries and animate your photos with a choice of themes, such as a spinning carousel, to provide an interactive viewing experience.

In addition to the powerful image-editing tools, Elements 5.0 includes great tools for downloading, organization, and archiving your photos.

Easily create impressive home videos and DVDs
Premiere Elements makes it easy to import video, audio, and still images from virtually any media device, including DV and DVD camcorders, HDV devices, web, digital still and mobile phone cameras, unprotected DVDs, MPEG-4 video recorders, Windows Media Center, and video clips from selected mobile phones. There is also native HDV support, so you can achieve richer results by capturing and editing HDV footage in its native format.

Premiere Elements gives you control of your video footage, whether you want to burn it right to a DVD or spend time editing and adding creative elements. If you want to simply create DVDs, you can go from camcorder to disc in just a few clicks. Or, take advantage of the powerful video-editing tools that allow you to transform and personalize your video creation. For quick editing, the Sceneline View lets you assemble your video by drag and drop, rearranging thumbnails of your clips, and adding transitions and effects. For more precise control, the Timeline view offers Premier Elements' most advanced features.

Do all your editing in one convenient place: Easily trim and split clips, drag and drop effects and transitions, add text and narration, and more, right in the Monitor window. You can even create your own time-lapse movies, claymations, and other still-frame animations with the stop-motion video capture features.

Rock-solid performance and quality are included in all of Adobe's Premier software. For example, you can view edits in real time, as you make them, by previewing your movie full-screen with just the click of a button. You can also feel free to experiment: With Auto Save, multiple undos, and the History panel, you can always go back to a previous version. The soundtrack for your video can be rich and full with the quality of Dolby Digital stereo. And since video editing can take up a lot of processor speed and memory, Premier is optimized to support multiple processors and advanced multi-threading and hyper-threading technology on the latest Pentium and Centrino Duo-based Windows XP systems.

If you want to make your video more dynamic, you can add moving text and graphics. Adding TV-style effects is simple—just drag and drop one of the hundreds of amazing special effects you can customize and reuse. Also choose from hundreds of eye-catching transitions to creatively move from one scene to the next. To apply a transition, just drag and drop to apply effects such as dissolves, fades, and wipes. Or you can create your own transition style.

Since videos are made to be seen, Premier Elements includes powerful tools for outputting your movie. While creating a professional-quality DVD, you can design unique DVD menus using your own video, photos, audio, and text. Or, save time with automatic scene indexes or chapters that link to your video clips. Create and watch your video in traditional TV (4:3.0) or widescreen (16:9) format, in NTSC or PAL standard for a worldwide audience. Give your audience high-quality sound by automatically converting audio to industry-standard Dolby Digital stereo, allowing you to burn more video onto a single disc without sacrificing sound quality. Before you burn, make sure your movie is just as you envisioned it by watching a full-screen preview on your computer or TV. Then burn your finished movie to a single- or dual-layer DVD.

For sharing on portable devices, export a movie in the MPEG-4 format. MPEG-4 files can then be viewed on virtually any portable device—including the Video iPod and Sony PlayStation Portable.
