That’s the error message I just received when trying to save this photograph. It came with a large yellow warning triangle and a red exclamation point, of course. Now don’t even try telling me what the hell it means because I DON’T CARE. Have I mentioned that I hate Photoshop?
[Photo: I know it's more paperwhites and these stink, too, right in my living room.]

Aw, Susan! Who could hate Photoshop? It’s a Darkroom in a Box!
(Disclaimer: bf works for Adobe, so when I have a problem, I have Geek in a T-Shirt to fix it)
Long story short, you don’t need to worry about anything — most common image file formats are rasterized (TIF, JPG, etc.) and must be so in order to display on a monitor.
After looking around a little bit I couldn’t find anything about cameras taking vector-based pictures, so I don’t know why Elements would display such a message.
For a rainy afternoon:

Paperwhites, though — euw. I can have them around only if I can put them far enough away that I can’t smell them.
Wow, firefly knows her stuff there. I was just going to comment on the pretty picture in front of the cool ripply glass window.Or that’s what it looks like from here.
Definition of rasterized: “The process of taking an unrasterized image format such as a vector graphic and applying a size and resolution to it. When an image has been rasterized it is no longer scaleable.”
That’s o.k.— no thanks are necessary for making that clear for you.

I learned a new word today… rasterized and the paperwhites are pretty, are they growing in marbles? Cool idea!
Is that considered a houseplant? Hmmmmm
I like the grass outside the window, also. Try some neem oil on that rasterize problem. It seems to work for most problems!
