Customer Reviews

Great book!

This is a really great book for the person who wants to hit the ground running. It allows you to get the basics of Photoshop Elements quickly and pretty painlessly. I'd highly recommend it for anyone who has not worked with Photoshop before.

photoshop elements

I love this book. I purchased two other books before this one on photoshop elements 6. This is the best. It simplified every project.

Exactly what I was looking for

Step-by-step, visual ties between text and screen illustrations, no long paragraphs or sentences with several embedded steps. East to return to the book later to refresh understanding of a particular operation. This is the way all manuals should be written.

Quick and Easy Way to Learn

This is the second Teach Yourself book I have purchased. My first was for Photoshop Elements 4.0. I found that book so well done and easy to use that when I bought Elements 6.0 I waited for the latest Teach Yourself Visually to be published. It covers all of the functions of the program that you are likely to use. I find that pictures and words help me to learn much quicker. If you need to be refreshed in some area of the program you can do it quickly. I find this publication and all of the series of Teach Yourself Visually publications a must to have.
