Adobe Photshop Elements 9 Editor – In The Mac App Store

Adobe Photoshop Elements has hit the Mac App Store, it’s up for $79.99 and features most of the usual Elements 9 options but not the Adobe Elements Organizer facility. This shouldn’t present too much of a problem if you already use iPhoto to manage your images and infact Elements 9 has been designed to be used in conjunction with iPhoto for more ‘professional’ editing techniques.

Take a look at the main features of Elements 9 below.

If you’d like to purchase this app, you can do so here for $79.99.
