DO MORE WITH YOUR PHOTOS


B


ack in the days of film cameras, we’d need to send
our negatives off to be developed and then wait a
while for them to be processed, printed and then
posted back for us to enjoy. We’d then be able to
share our holiday adventures with family and friends by
passing the physical prints around.
Thanks to digital cameras and camera phones we’re
shooting thousands more images than we did back in the
days of analogue film. As a result we’re less likely to share
our photos as physical prints. Fortunately, Photoshop
Elements provides a one-stop shop when it comes to
organising, editing and sharing your images. The Share tab
reflects the fact that in these digital days we’re much more
likely to share our photos electronically, via social networking
sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
In the following tutorial we’ll demonstrate how to get
Photoshop Elements to link with popular social networking
sites such as Facebook, so you can export your images
directly from the Organizer to online galleries. This
improved sharing feature enables you to enjoy instant
feedback on your photography skills from your friends,
family, and even your Twitter followers.
