Photoshop CS3 Bible

The book touches on everything I need to know for working with Photoshop. The authors share tips, tricks, and workarounds. If something works well or does not do what the user would expect, the authors say so. The topics are covered throughout the book in a clear, thoughtful manner. Unlike some other books on Photoshop, and I have several, this one is definetely worth every penny.

Photoshop CS3 Bible extremely helpful and informative

I found the Photoshop CS3 Bible to be both enjoyable to read and really informative. It has helped me improve my photos, and I've learned a lot about features I'd never used before and I've found better ways to use the tools I thought I understood! Photoshop's such a big program, you can never know everything, but this book has gotten me closer to that goal than any other book I've read or seen. The tutorials on CD are a great addition to the book, for people like me who need to see something done in addition to reading about a procedure. Unlike the other reviewer, I prefer the lack of a voiceover in the tutorials - any instructions someone might say out loud appear onscreen, so you can follow the tutorials anywhere, anytime - and not need sound to use them - and we're spared any jokes or unnecessary comments that most voiced tutorials seem to include. I'm using the sample images (and there are plenty of them) from the CD for practice, and they're really helpful. All in all, it's a great book, and I highly recommend it!

A beginner's Bible

This one really is the Bible. As a beginner trying to teach myself Photoshop, I find it indispensable. The authors have a refreshingly direct, accessible, easy to understand style -- A permanent volume on my shelf.
