Luis,
Just grab the window title bar and move it where you’d like to be. Also, considering removing the checkmark in the Preferences for always opening pictures in the center of the screen :
On Windows, it’s Edit / Prefences / General / Center Documents Window (end of the second column of options).
On a Mac, it’s Photoshop Elements / Prefences / General / Center Documents Window (end of the second column of options).

Thanks Ray, but…
What I do after opening the image (image then is with title bar), I maximize it (image no longer contains title bar). This way I get the largest possible image size on my screen but, at this point the image seems to be immovable from the center of the screen; very inconvenient when playing with boxes of ‘levels’, ‘layers’, etc.
Also, I did not check ‘always open image in center of screen’ in Preferences, so there was none to be removed.
Am still looking for a way to move the ‘maximized’ image from the center of the screen. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Luis, grab the corner of the title bar and stretch it out to suit your maximized image. This way you can still move it to where you want on the screen.
What you are trying to do isn’t going to work. When you maximize the screen that contains your image, that screen is no longer movable, and your image will be centered. Here is an alternative solution that you might consider:
Open the image that you want to work on.
Double-click on the Hand tool. This will make the displayed image as large as possible without "cropping" any of the image. If you want to work with a larger magnification, go ahead and magnify the image within that window. You will see horizontal and vertical scroll bars that will allow you to move around the image. Or you can open the navigation window and use it to move to different parts of your image.
I know this will probably seem a little bit restrictive at first. But after you get a feel for it I think you will find that you have much more control than you do if you maximize the image screen.
Regards,
Jim
Thanks Jodi, Thanks Jim,
Yeah, your suggests work well. It’ll take a little getting-used-to but not maximizing the image does offer options that were not there before.
