I currently have photoshop elements 2 and photoshop album 2 and have many large eg 60mb scanned files that I can’t import into Album for organising my photos I think the limit is around 30mb. Is this fixed in the combined product?

I just tried importing a 80meg file and it worked.

I just tried adding a 102 mb tif file to Organizer and it appeared to have no problems with it. Processing the file on my PC (2.67 gig P4, 533 mh FSBus, 512 mb Ram, 64mb DDR NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 420, 120 gig hard drive with 85 gig free) takes it to it’s knees but it eventually gets the job done in both Editor and Organizer. Don’t know what the effect of a lot of these would be but I have quite a few over 30 mb.

You could install the free trial and find out if you want to be sure.

It does have some limits, but I am not clear what they are. I suspect that, like with PSA, the limit isn’t file size it is image pixel size. Generally with PSA, this only showed up with scanned image where an excessive resolution was used. I have images well over 100Mb that PSA would handle and Organizer is OK with.
