5.0 out of 5 stars User Friendly, 20 May 2008

By	Well Read "saro319" (Norhampton England) - See all my reviews

What makes this book easy to use? Its user friendly, with clear easy to follow instructions. The colour pictures are of a good quality for each task in Elements. What you see in the book, you see on the monitor screen. Page layouts are consistent and the print clear. Getting started with Elements 6 couldn't be smoother. The book is basic and more advanced. For anyone new to Elements 6 or upgrading from older versions, this is the book to buy.

Elements 6 is no longer the cut down version of Photoshop that it once was. Adobe have included more of the best features from their new Photoshop, without compromising the enjoyment of using Elements. Photoshop Elements for Dummies, successfully addresses the changes in this new Elements version.

5.0 out of 5 stars Photoshop Elements 6 for Dummies, 26 Feb 2009

By	A. Wyatt (Norfolk) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was a bit concerned about some previous comments on this book but I needn't have worried. It's very well structured and comprehensive in dealing with all that Elements 6 have to offer. Lots of examples and pictures with tips, warnings and new feature flags.
I previously had Elements 2 on my computer and hardly recognised the new software. I needed guidence on how to handle the new layout and how to use all the features. The content fitted the bill perfectly.
The quality of the print and paper is excellent too. My only gripe is that the book won't lay open on the desk on its own. It's glue bound. This means that if you are following a particular chapter, you have to lay something heavy across the open pages.

3.0 out of 5 stars So-so..., 6 Sep 2008

By	rowan tree (Edinburgh, Scotland) - See all my reviews

Quality book? Very much so.

Easy to read? Well, yeah, but seems more formal than other Dummies somehow.

Cover all the right stuff? Yeah, suppose, but spends a huge amount of the book going on about the Organiser (not interesting!!!!).

Best book on Elements? No... though I don't know what is, but this isn't it.
