Photoshop Elements 8

I would also be interested in knowing if this tutorial applies to PSE 8.
Have just printed the lessons without time to LOOK at them right now, so here's hoping this course helps with my 'learning curve' to PSE 8. Any help? Appreciate a reply

Very good class

I enjoyed the class, especially on how to improve a photo by removing unwanted objects from. Will there be another class? and is there a Photoshop Element 8?
