An Essential for Photoshop Users

For the last four years, my class has utilized this book as the primary tool for learning photoshop and its many applications. The book details the elements required to use this program. But what I have really enjoyed most about this book is that it does not do the work for you -- It guides you to not only create web sites but to also troubleshoot and problem solve. I particularly enjoyed Mr. Eigen's writing style. Each chapter is carefully structured and the information is easy to follow. And the learning doesn't stop with the last chapter! I don't know of any other author who actually provides additional and more challenging assignments to his or her readers than Mr. Eigen does. He has been so accessible and generous with his time to us. This is a must have for anyone who wants to learn this program and wants to learn from an expert.

Best Photoshop book I've read

This books takes you through starting photoshop to building a solid, professional web site, covering both photoshop tools, techniques, tips, and web-site-building advice. The author has clearly been around the block a few times and knows his stuff. Even better, he knows how to teach. I've gone through a number of photoshop books over the years, but this is by far the most useful one I've ever seen. Long enough to contain information you need, but doesn't include any filler that most photoshop books have.
