Ok, a little off-topic, but I'll bet someone has a great answer ...

My mom just asked if it was within her earthly abilities to learn Photoshop. She's interested in compositing images, for making funny cards for people, and whimsical illustrations for books for her grandkids.

I'm wondering if something simpler might be a better idea. My mom is smart, but has about as much computer aptitude as ... well, your mom.

The only image editor I know anything about is Photoshop, so one of the junior versions of that might be best in terms of me to helping her. But I'm open to suggestions.

Thoughts?
