choosing a photo editor<br />

184 Chapter 5<br />

Before we get<br />

started, which photo editing<br />

application are we going to<br />

use to resize the image? I<br />

have Photoshop Elements. Will<br />

that work?<br />

If you don’t have Adobe Photoshop Elements, but<br />

you’d like to follow along for the rest of the<br />

chapter <strong>with</strong> it, you can download it and try it<br />

out free for 30 days. The URL to download it is:<br />

Good question – there are lots of photo editing<br />

applications on the market (some freely available),<br />

which are all quite similar. We’re going to use<br />

Adobe’s Photoshop Elements to resize the images,<br />

because it is one of the most popular photo<br />

editing applications, and is available on both<br />

Windows and the Macintosh. If you own another<br />

photo editing application, you should have no<br />

problem following along and translating each<br />

editing task to your own application.<br />

If you don’t yet have a photo editing application,<br />

you might first check to see if there was one<br />

included <strong>with</strong> your operating system. If you have<br />

a Mac, you can use iPhoto to edit your photos. If<br />

you’re a Windows user, you might find Microsoft’s<br />

Digital Image Suite on your computer already.<br />

If you still don’t have an editing application<br />

available to you, follow along and and for each<br />

step you can use the <strong>HTML</strong> and images included<br />

in the example folders.
