AMAZING at the LEAST

This book was more than incredible, being a professional designer I envy the creators of this book. With a simple and easy to follow layout, the book describes amazing techniques which will astonish anyone. It effectively describes every aspect of photoshop and how to use it. Even for beginners, this book is a smash hit! It features images by people from intustrial light and magic (Made Star Wars) and it has great details on rotoscoping quicktime movies! If all else fails, there is a CD included that contains over 50 actions, filter demos, and images, A definite MUST BUY!

Bought it as a gift, ended up keeing it for myself

I bought this book as a gift to teach my father how to use Photoshop 4, in the end, i found it so facinating and useful that I kept it for myself. The CD-Rom was great as well. It showed me how to produce neat effects that I was able to use in the workplace and home - Step by Step and with automated actions. One of the best photoshop books I've ever bought.

I like it very much.

It's excellent

A great book for advance users

The moment I saw this book, I fell in love with it. It's a superb book with clear pictures and good tips. The examples are explained in a guided way. I wish they had icluded few more examples in the book.

My favorite of all my Photoshop 4 library of books.

Although this book is somewhat daunting for the beginner, it is an excellent resource once you get your Photoshop feet wet. The WOW CD is simply great, so many special effects in an instant. I have read it over and over and in some cases dissected each section by writing out each step of the process before actually trying it on my own projects. It helped me immensely to "ace" my Photoshop class this semester. I would only recommend it however, for the "tenacious" beginner. You really need to know the basics of the software...it isn't a beginner's guide.
