John Nemerovski MyMac.com Book Review 3 out of 5 stars.
12 of 12 people found this review helpful.

Here we have dozens of well-illustrated examples of techniques and tools built into version 1 of Photoshop Elements, with basic instructions on how to use them. Elements is one of the best beginner/intermediate applications of all time.

Ironically, the software is so powerful and versatile that this colorful "Teach Yourself Visually" format can be a bit sketchy when readers need more details. If you work through the lessons and dig deeper within Elements, all will eventually be revealed. Experiment!

Teach Yourself Visually Adobe Photoshop Elements is therefore a "tip of iceberg" guidebook, assisting newcomers to feel comfy with Elements, and then by necessity encouraging them to be creative with the thousands of possibilities that this application contains. Repetition breeds understanding, especially when working with digital imagery.

Best suited to new users who learn via high-quality visual instruction.

Surmountable editing lessons. 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I would not say these guides are for dummies, although even we might find that we actually get to learn something about these two programs that we invested in by following through these clear and well paced lessons in the main handles and ropes. I wish they would have been available for the latest versions, yet they are still the best guides I have looked at, and I borrowed a few from the library before I bought these.

Editorial Review:

You may already know how to use Photoshop Elements to edit your digital images or to create some basic special effects. But if you want to take those skills further--using your finely crafted images to produce a variety of professional-looking projects--you need this guide! In these pages, design pro Lisa M. Matthews shows you how to take advantage of all of Photoshop Elements' features--including those new to 3.0, like Photomail and an improved Review Mode--to create everything from postcards and flyers to personal Web pages, Web galleries, custom CD and DVD covers, and more. After learning the basics of image correction (including how to color images by hand and add borders), you'll find basic layout strategies for a slew of projects. As your knowledge grows, so does the complexity of the projects, so that by the end of the volume, you'll be creating slide presentations, Web pages and banners, and more. Best of all, the companion CD includes working templates of the book's projects and a trial version of the software.
