I used to use PhotoStudio when I had OS 9 and satisfied my needs and was really simple to use. When that disappeared I moved to PS Elements which I find difficult - I guess due to it being so more comprehensive and I find it difficult at times but gradually getting used to it[ I find it good in combination with GraphicConverter. I notice that the newer version of GC has 'layers; too but I haven't really looked into this in GC but guess it will be similar to that facility in PSE?
