Product Description

Product Description

After more than two years, Adobe has finally released a new version of Photoshop Elements for the Mac. Version 6 packs a lot more editing firepower than iPhoto, and this Missing Manual puts every feature into a clear, easy-to-understand context -- something that no other book on Elements does!

Photoshop Elements 6 is perfect for scrapbooking, making fancy photo collages, and creating Web galleries. It has lots of new features such as Guided Edit for performing basic editing tasks, an improved Photomerge feature, a handy Quick Selection Tool, and much more. But knowing what to do and when is tricky. Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac: The Missing Manual explains not only how the tools and commands work, but when to use them. With it, you will:

  • Learn to import, organize, and fix photos quickly and easily.
  • Repair and restore old and damaged photos, and retouch any image.
  • Jazz up your pictures with dozens of filters, frames, and special effects.
  • Learn which tools the pros use -- you'll finally understand how layers work!
  • Create collages and photo layout pages for greeting cards and other projects.
  • Get downloadable practice images and try new tricks right away.

This full-color guide starts with the simplest functions and progresses to increasingly complex features of Elements. If you're ready for the more sophisticated tools, you can easily jump around to learn specific techniques. As always, author Barbara Brundage lets you know which Elements features work well, which don't, and why -- all with a bit of wit and humor.

Don't hesitate: Now that Adobe's outstanding photo editor has been updated for the Mac, dive in with Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac: The Missing Manual right away.

4.0 out of 5 stars An essential adjunct, 21 Aug 2008
By Audio Angel "Ange" (St Petersburg, FL) - See all my reviews
I was interested in Photoshop Elements 6 but wondered whether I might end up paying nearly $100 for something that was not a lot better than iPhoto but much less functional than full Photoshop. In actual fact it is a significant advance on iPhoto for image manipulation and does everything I want just as well as the full version would.

The only downside I have encountered is that it is not intuitive to use and the included documentation is poor. To be fair, Adobe do recommend that you use their website Help, but I'd recommend anyone who does not have Photoshop experience to also purchase Barbara Brundage's "Photoshop elements 6 for Mac The Missing Manual". This saved me going crazy in the learning phase and even now that I am comfortable with the program I still go back to the book for advanced tips and work-rounds.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes everything so clear, 4 Feb 2009
By Old Den (Bedford, UK) - See all my reviews
I used Photoshop Elements in various versions on my PC for a number of years and had been through the "Classroom in a book" by Adobe. When I changed to an iMac and bought PE 6 for Mac I decided to try "The Missing Manual". I have now found out more about PE than I ever knew before and I can thoroughly recommend this book to everyone. The clarity of the explanations is superb.

I've got another in this series, and find it really easy to understand. This is now in colour, so is even better. Excellent.

I would recommend this, although it is a bit of a tome. If you are patient, you can read through and understand the basic elements (just), but I think the best advice would be to... Read more
