Photoshop Elements and POD – Print On Demand Products (like Gearbubble.com)

Photoshop Elements™  is the younger sibling of Photoshop™.  While it doesn’t have all of the horsepower, it is easier to use, it is mature, there is a ton of on-line help and it does many things VERY well.   I find that it is especially powerful for creating MEMEs (images with words on them) and Print-on-Demand (POD) product images.  It seems like Photoshop Elements and POD were made for each other.

I have created several posts on using Photoshop Elements and POD while working with Gearbubble and this post gives you a link to each of them.  I’ll be adding more as time goes on.
