5 out of 5 stars Lives up to its name   July 29, 2000
 5 out of 7 found this review helpful

I found this book to be extremely helpful, as I tend to use certain of Photoshop's elements on a regular basis, and need a refresher on others at times. The cross-program aspect of the book appealed to me, as I have the graphics suite and need to use it more fully. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, and the templates, etc. on the cd are a bonus. Well worth the money.


2 out of 5 stars Disappointing waste of money.   March 21, 2000

This book wouldn't be so disappointing if it would have been titled the "Adobe Productivity Kit." Nearly every example ends up taking you into PageMaker or in some instances into ImageReady. There are better books for learning Photoshop tips and techniques that stick specifically to PS.


2 out of 5 stars Should Have Been Called PageMaker Productivity Kit   January 18, 2000
 44 out of 46 found this review helpful

Unless you have Adobe PageMaker, you won't be able to complete sixteen of the twenty-six examples in the book. In addition, the book does cover PhotoShop 5.5 so those of you with version 5 won't be able to try the ImageReady examples. Other than a very misleading title and sparse PHOTOSHOP activities, the book was just okay.

This book is a color one and is different from the Classroom In A Book series that is all black and white. This little book is a practical one since it goes right into the 26 hands-on projects. It is useful for those who are new to Photoshop. It's very important for one to practice in order to understand and be proficient in using Photoshop. The reason is ideas will automactically come our your mind when you use it very often.

It covers masking, color correction and other exercises. This book is like a companion to Classroom In A Book. A newbie can quickly feel the power of Photoshop that helps in creativity and productivity. The 26 projects are enough to help you to do simple graphics for web purpose as well as simple photo retouching. The CD comes with fonts, clip art and other plugins. As a professional designer, I have other resources like these. Therefore I don't find the CD is useful to me. If you are a newbie, you will like this book as well as the CD. It doesn't cover ImageReady 2.0 and I wonder if they will publish a second edition for Photoshop 5.5. The only down side of this book is the price is a bit expensive for such a little book.

This book is a color one, not liked the Classroom In A Book series that is all black and white. This little book is a practical one since it has 26 hands-on projects. It is useful for those who are new to Photoshop. It's very important for one to practice in order to understand and be proficient in using Photoshop. The reason is ideas will automactically come from your mind when you use it very often. I have been using Photoshop since version 3, therefore I only read all the hands-on projects at the bookstore. I cannot comment on the CD when I don't have a chance to use it. The only down side of this book is the price is a bit expensive for such a little book.
