From the Author
In 3 short weeks get up to speed with Photoshop 5.
From its not-so-humble beginnings as a film-editing program, Photoshop has grown into the world's leading image editing software. With the advent of the Web, imaging software has gained a whole new audience. Many people have been thrust, either voluntarily or non-voluntarily into the role of Web Master. This role entails, at the very least, a working knowledge of some sort of imaging software. As one of the most powerful and popular choices, Photoshop is often the program people turn to. Due to its power, though, Photoshop can be a little intimidating to beginners. Even people with photographic, artistic, graphic, and computer skills can be faced with what may appear to be a monumental challenge when encountering this program for the first time. That's where "Teach Yourself Photoshop 5 in 21 Days" comes in.

Between the covers of this book, and on the accompanying CD, I walk you through the program. From the first day, where you'll learn about the Photoshop interface, to the 21st and final day, where you'll discover some of the secrets to using Photoshop for web graphics, this book helps you get started. More than that, though, it will give you the confidence to learn how to use this powerful program to its fullest.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just a brief introduction to PhotoShop, 1 April 1999
By A Customer
The book is very good as a brief introduction to PhotoShop, however if you are seriously involved into graphic design, you will need a lot more information. You could "breeze" through the book in five days, so if you buy it,prepare your wallets to spend money for the next one. If you create images as a hobby, the book might be just enough for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to Photoshop, 2 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This book is set up with lessons in each chapter and lengthly step by step how to's. It contains a lot of content for the size of the book and even a newcomer will gain a strong comprehensive skills at Photoshop. One of the best resources for learning Photoshop. Will shave years off the average Photoshop learning curve. The book allows the student to really see the true power and depth of the program, as well as introduction to special effects. All the matrial is presented in a light fun manner, by the books author. The down side is that the files are not always where there supposed to be or what they're supposed to be, but that's true of most of the lesson books from this publisher. At least this book has most the files even if they're not in the right folder, try the other folders and they'll turn up. There are also several Web sites and resources mentioned in the book that are helpful, including the author's Web site(where he features tutorials described in the book) Definately a great tool for learning Photoshop and there are also resources in the that offer guidance on where more advanced skills can be aquired. Photoshop doesn't have to be as scarey as people claim it is. OK it may take a little longer than 21 days, but a book like this one invites you to take the time and explore. It's worth every minute spent.

2.0 out of 5 stars A lot of useful information, but carelessly presented., 2 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This is a very disappointing book and not recommended for someone who has not worked with previous versions of Photoshop, or anyone who is easily frustrated by poorly presented information. Although Mr. Clark appears to be knowledgeable about the content, he and his editor were very careless about the development of many of the lessons. Topics do no flow in a logical progression. References are made to tools or techniques that have not been covered in earlier lessons. References to tools are not easy to follow and are not supported through repetition or consistent visual clues. Several demonstrations are made without file references which makes it very difficult for the reader to follow along. Some files are in the wrong folders, some are missing and others are defective. There is a great deal of useful information in the book, but it was obviously rushed to press before it was ready for publication.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good "learn the basics" book - tutorial based
This book is certainly for those who have little or no experience with Photoshop, rather than people upgrading to v5 from earlier versions. Read more
