Product Description
Product Description
This Visual QuickStart Guide uses a combination of task-based instruction and strong visuals to teach beginning and intermediate users how to create great-looking images with Photoshop. Best-selling authors Elaine Weinmann and Peter Lourekas take readers step by step through all of today's Photoshop essentials: from importing digital photos through basic color manipulation and image correction to painting, masking, using filters, and more. Hot topics like working with Camera Raw, using the improved Photomerge command (that aligns and blends layers automatically) to stitch together images, making selections using the new Quick Selection tool and Refine Edge feature, and Smart Filters are all covered.
Both beginning users, who want a thorough introduction to the topic, and more advanced users, who are looking for a handy reference, will find what they need here. In this edition, using a fresh new design and now illustrated in full color, the authors have streamlined the text by focusing on the most efficient means of accomplishing a task, rather than explaining all possible methods. By the end of the book, users will have a solid foundation for working in Photoshop CS3. Additional intermediate topics can be found in the author's follow-on book: Photoshop CS3: Visual QuickPro Guide.

Format:Paperback
This book, now in full colour (about time! It is about colour after all) covers the programme pretty thoroughly. Not quiet as structured as the official Adobe 'Classroom in a Book' series but well worth having.
Remember, no book will explain everything exactly how you need it to be explained, a different viewpoint is always good so buy several, this being one of them.

This is definitely not the quick and easy way to learn Photoshop as promised. It is ,however, a very good book for refining your Photoshop skills if you already have a modicum of knowledge about the process.
