Yes it is, and by the way best home or enthusiast image editing software although one can use it and for professional work. Photoshop Elements is Photoshop but with less features dedicated to professional work.

Adobe professional costs $399.99 but other places might sell it for a bit higher. Try looking at amazon and other online options for the best price, but be careful when shopping at ebay, because of the chance of fraud.

A smart object is used for resizing layers or "objects". So when you resize an image to a smaller dimension, then resize it back to its original dimension, the resized photo won't be as high quality as the original.

So smart objects turn layers into an "object" that doesn't lose it's quality when it get's resized.

when apply filters like sharpening in smart objects its not destructive, you can always show or hide filter pressing eye icon next to name of filter, or change blending mode by double clicking two arrows on the end of filter name, even change amount of sharpening by double clicking on its name. This works for any filter not only for sharpening

The most popular sized photo frames are 4x6, 5x7 and 8x10. There are many other sizes, but these sizes can be found in most any store that sells frames.

a gradient when used in photoshop is a layer that when selected has the option of having a start colour that moves through shades of that colour to another. I.e. starts white and as it moves down the page for instance wll go darker and darker until it black.

Clone stamp tool in Photoshop is used to select or copy potion of image and stamp or brush that portion on the another part of the image at anywhere. You can select the portion of the image by holding alt key and click(Alt+click). It is also very useful for remove spots, skin blemishes etc.

The magic wand selects the same colour you click on dependant on the current settings you mentioned.

For example, if you click on some pure white and your tolerance is 1, it will select all of the pure white in that accessable area.

Where as if your tolerance was 50 it would also selct darker shades, like some greys.

Right-click the Background layer and select the option "Layer from background." You can name it whatever you like, select "OK," and then it becomes like any normal layer - this means that you can just delete it like a normal layer as well.

Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop Elements share the ability to layer elements on top of each other in groups or just layers. Both allow the users the ability to create animation from layer placements. Unlike Photoshop Elements, Illustrator does not have the blending mode that always any layer underneath to be changed through tools like brightness and contrast.
