Tina,

I use Elements 6.0, and I have been trying to improve my post-processing. 
The path I followed on this and other recent images is to do my normal 
adjustments to the RAW image, then go to a 100% size and adjust capture 
sharpness before I open the image in the Elements editor.  After editing, I 
resize the image and then adjust final sharpening.

Splitting the sharpening into two steps seems to add more snap to the 
images.

I'm sure you are using much more sophisticated software than I am, so I feel 
a little out of place explaining my approach.  I have picked up some hints 
from Geoff recently that have improved my work, at least in my opinion.
