Wonderful, but, June 04 2009
The book, as are all the Missing Manuals, is thorough, well-written, and entertaining. It would be perfect if David would let you use his good paper.
Fantastic, April 12 2009
For me as a beginner, I learned more BEFORE I got to Chapter 1 than I did in one chapter of any other book on the subject. THANK YOU !! I am much less stressed with it all and now I don't see it as unsurmountable.
Way better than the help files., December 10 2008
I enjoy using Photoshop Elements a lot, and after reading this book for a while I found myself flipping through its pages when I had a questions, instead of reading the help files that come with the program.
It uses an easy to understand language and shows you every step of the way on how to do something.
I would recommend this book to anyone just getting started with Photoshop Elements or even those that have used the program for a while but want to use it to its full potential.
