Heh! Yeah, Elements 2 is old. I had Elements 4, and then upgraded to Elements 5 but shortly after made the move to CS2, then CS3, then Lightroom...
I'd suggest hitting the local library if you have one, or try searching online for some Elements 2 books or such. Tutorials may be hard to find.
A quick Google search for "photoshop elements 2 book" turned up some possible leads:

An interesting aside -- I recently picked up a little old (maybe 6 years) Dell Inspiron 1200 laptop for my daughter, who has been without a computer for a couple years, for $60. We've been having fun getting it "functional". I had to dig out a wireless plug-in card, which got her hooked up, and then we realized it only had 256 Mb of memory, so I sent out for a 1 Gig upgrade card, which we will plug in when she comes by here Tuesday. Hopefully...
I did install Lightroom 1.4 and Photoshop CS3 on it, they aren't functional now, but maybe with the new memory. As a fallback, I have my old disc for Elements 4 on hand, ready and waiting, and the online link for Elements 5.
So, back in "the day", not so long ago, we actually could get by nicely with less than 2 Gig of Ram. Now, 4 Gig is considered basic RAM. But I'm thinking that the memory upgrade will allow her to do a lot.
Anyway Debi, there are resources out there!
