I use Ulead 10+ and it's ok. It was great for me to start out on, but now that I'm doing more editing I'm not really happy with it. Ulead 10+ lacks the ability to mass-apply almost anything. If you want crossfades between all 400 of the pictures in your slideshow/video, you'll have to put them in one-by-one. And for some reason, the "mute" button doesn't work, you have to manually bring down the audio levels for every clip.

I'm not sure if the other program you mentioned is any better, just letting you know about my gripes with Ulead.

I have like Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0 I think there is 4.0 out so I can't comment on that. I don't mind Adobe Premiere Elements. All up until you have to make a menu. In 2.0 there was nice templets but if you wanted to create your own you were really out of luck. There was suppose to be some way to tie it in to Adobe Photoshop element, but I never got that working very well. The video editing was okay for beginners.

This summer I tried one of the versions of Unlead had I don't know if 11 plus or just 11. That one was also pretty good. I could do a lot more with the video editing (I ended up doing some 24 type intro).
But adding Chapters to the video and creating a menu was really dumb. The chapters were a pain to get in the right places and naming them. Creating the a menu was awful. Just a couple of basic menu options. no real power over anything.

I have posted on here before I wish there was a good video editing program that ALSO let you create good menus. Every program I have seen does some part of the video editing processor really well and does the rest really bad (or not that great). There is just no front runner with Video Editing program that does it all (Capture video, Edit it with effects, and create Menus).
Out of the two you listed I would probably go with Adobe. I'm sure there version 4.0 is better then 2.0 I have.
