Not sure Elements features the editing function "Curves"
In Photoshop, it is IMAGE>ADJUSTMENTS>CURVES, and then that gives you
a box with kind of a bendy 'wire' kind of tool, that you grab by various points
and it establishes little keyframes that you can move up or down to add
various degrees of color and balance effects to your open photo, then save it.
I will go home and post some screen grabs tonight to show you better.

What it does basically is take the photo and enhances or reduces various
attributes to make the photo more or less attractive. It takes a straight
line and allows you to make bezier curves in it....the straight line basically
represents your picture in it's current form. You use the curves to make
smooth changes to lightness, contrast, color, etc.
