For the money, Paint Shop Pro is probably the better deal with more features per dollar, so to speak. However, Adobe Photoshop Elements has a huge user base and is a logical stepping stone before comitting to the full feature Photoshop CS2 (or CS3). Because of this, there are a huge number of books and online tutorials available for Photoshop Elements. Most photography magazines will carry editing artcles based on Adobe Photoshop products and would therefore fit your need to learn at your own pace.
