Okay, photos on a read/write share. No problem there. > Using PS Elements they can't use multiple machines > because it does not update any changes made by another user. Huh? Do you mean that the photos on the share are not updated when you edit them with PS Elements? I've never used the program... does it keep the originals intact? (Picasa does this. I think they do it because JPEGs don't like to be edited without re-compressing them at each save, which can loose quality.) Can the users edit the photos and export them as new *edited* versions right back onto the share? --Matt Ross Ephrata School District ----- Original Message ----- From: Jay Dale [mailto:jd...@unetek.com] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com] Sent: Tue, 07 Jun 2011 07:33:44 -0700 Subject: RE: Image Editing software > By network access and sharing, I mean that all the photos are located on a > network share and multiple computers need to be able to access them and make > changes and update them.
