Working with Elements 11 and darned if I can remember how to do this or where to look in Barbara Brundage's book. I have a picture of two people but there's too much space between them. I want to bring them closer together. How do I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Sepiana. I tried using it but it just seems to squish everything together. I recall doing something with a brush or pencil making red lines down the section I wanted to get rid of and elements would join what remained together. Does this ring a bell?

Yes. Use the green lines for the ares you want to keep, and red for what you want to get rid of, then use the anchor boxes to squeeze the image to where you want.

Sorry, I misspoke. I've just looked at part of the video you linked and that's it, but I don't think I have those tools in Elements 11, do I? I've attached a shot of my toolbar.

The icon nearly at the bottom on the right with the square and gear is the recompose tool.

Starting with PSE11 Adobe made a change concerning the Recompose tool. Now it has its own place in the Tools panel and a different shortcut -- the letter W.
If you need more information on how to use the Recompose tool, here is the Help file.
