That's a good reason to use Elements, Lori. Using Word leaves your work unprotected and anyone can take the raw images. With Photoshop, you can take the images and put them on one project then convert it in to a jpg. That way, all of your real work is out of reach. True, another photoshopper has the skill to extract the images but not just anyone can do it and certainly not easily.
