Customer Reviews

Great reference! Lots of illustrations!

I have a job with a lot of "reading time", so I bring books to work. This book was GREAT for studying at work - the illustrations helped me grasp new concepts and techniques about Photoshop, without having my computer in front of me! The book is lavishly illustrated (hence the "visually" in the title) and this is a great learning aid. A lot of the information stuck in my brain because I could see a visual reference in the book. It's also a good book to just thumb through, and find out how to use a new technique.I wouldn't want to rely on it as my *only* Photoshop book, but I found it to be a great study aid. I intend to get the Photoshop 6 edition, since I have recently upgraded my software. The only downside to this book is that all the screenshots are of Windows! Since I use my Mac for most Photoshop work, I wasn't crazy about all the Windows screenshots - but I survived! ;-)

Very Helpful Manual

I found this book to be refreshing compared to the other overly thick manuals that are available for beginners of photoshop. The pictures make it so much easier to understand some of the complex concepts involved with this graphic application. Also they do not try to overload the information. It is dispenses it bits and pieces, which is so much easier to understand.
