For those who have upgraded to PSE 20 or the new PSE 21, are there any significant improvements or enhancements versus earlier versions. I'm still using PSE 14 and love its simplicity, but may be missing out.

Thanks,
Mark

Good videos on youtube. I would post a link here but the share icon for youtube videos has disappeared. Anyone know why?

The share link worked for me just now when I tried it. But you can also simply copy/paste the url from your browser's address bar. For example, here's one for PSE 2021 features:

Thanks Linda, I see now how I can share but the share icon at the top of the screen with the video at full screen is no longer there.

Oh OK, never used that I also didn't know the share arrow was there in smaller view; for me it's quickest to simply copy/paste the url from the browser's address bar.

Just right click a You Tube video and select "copy URL". Then paste the URL into a UHH post.

Have the selection tools been improved over PSE 2018?

Funny - I was about to post the same link. If I had 2020, I wouldn't be tempted to buy 2021.

The Buying Guide tells you what is new, but not what has been improved.

I'm still learning PSE 2019 I'll wait another year or two to upgrade/uodate.

As someone who has used PSE 14, and regular user of PS CC, I ended up buying PSE 2020 last year during a Black Friday sale, just for the colorization tools. What I found was that the selection and masking tools were greatly improved in 2020 over 14. However, PS 2020 had much better select and mask tools. Last year Adobe ran a sale on PSE 2020 for $59 on Black Friday weekend, so look for something similar this year on 2021. As a registered user Adobe will try to sell you the upgrade version for $79, but just select the full version for the sale price.

Yes, there are many improvements. I can recommend Elements 2020, as that is what I use. 2021 has some really good features, so if you are going to get Elements, I recommend 2021.
They should have sales on it soon, for Thanksgiving or Christmas, and I am sure that you can pick it up for a good price.

But I strongly recommend the upgrade.
