Mockups, layers, Smart objects

[Kata38674497mtsx]

Hi Everybody,

Could you help me, pls!

Is Adobe photoshop the same as Adobe photoshop elements?

I am asking it as I have a Macbook Air and I can use only the Adobe Photoshop elements on in.

I have a mockup but I cannot change the My Design part as it does not open my photos.

I need a programme that can handle Mockups for socks,  Layers and smart objects.

• Help me, pls!
• Thank you a lot!

Photoshop Elements is not the same as Photoshop CC (the subscription software).  Elements cannot handle smart objects in the same way that CC can.

However, there is a cheap add-on called Elements+ that should allow you to do what you want with Elements.

As a (free with ads) alternative, Photopea will open PSD mockups with smart objects.
