No. There is a lot more to Photoshop than selection tools. I don't even know
if LE has color range or not, but I understand it does not allow access to
the separate color channels for editing.

Photoshop is such a comprehensive program that it takes some commitment to
learn it, even the capability that one person uses. I doubt that very many
users use the great majority of what it offers.

Are you trying to tell me I just parted with $300 for something I already had?

Suggest you investigate the color range tool under the select menu. Normally
it works quite well on sky selections.
I don't know about Photoshop LE, but the magic wand has not changed in
several versions of Photoshop. The add, subtract, and exclude options on the
new options pallete were available as hot keys.

I just bought PS6 as an upgrade from PS LE... got the special price of $299
since I ordered before Jan. 1... now it'll cost $499 for the same upgrade... I
am not a PS Guru... the main reason I bought it is the time I calculate it will
save me when I want to change the sky color or whatever I used to have to fight
to outline with one of the lasso tools or the limitations of the magic
wandPS6 has modified the magic wand where I can separate a sky or other
mostly solid background with a few clicks of the magic wand, as well as erase
the magic wand from areas where I dont want the separation anyway... that's
what jsutified the money for me...

35$ for PS 6 is for sure a ''warezed'' copy.
''warezed'' is the new word meaning cracked or back-up copy.

The only site , as far as I know , where you can upgrade from LE is Adobe
itself : www.adobe.com  ; net store.
