A lot of info I never seem to use

Conceptually I really like the idea behind these books. You want to find a technique and boom there it is laid out on one or two pages step by step. The problem is it seems I never use them very much. I don't know if the indexing is better in other books or the way it's presented is a little more engaging but I've noticed that after a few years they are always my choice of last resort. Like I said they have a wealth of info packed into them but you should look at how you work and how they're laid out before you buy.

Quick delivery, quality product

I received this product about 3 days after ordering it. I was kept up to date with a tracking number and the product shipped to me in perfect condition.

This eagerly anticipated update to the popular Photoshop CS2 for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickStart Guide uses a combination of task-based instruction and strong visuals to teach beginning and intermediate users how to create great-looking images with Photoshop. Best-selling authors Elaine Weinmann and Peter Lourekas take readers step by step through all of today's Photoshop essentials: from importing digital photos through basic color manipulation and image correction to painting, masking, using filters, and more. Hot topics like working with Camera Raw, using the improved Photomerge command (that aligns and blends layers automatically) to stitch together images, making selections using the new Quick Selection tool and Refine Edge feature, and Smart Filters are all covered.

Both beginning users, who want a thorough introduction to the topic, and more advanced users, who are looking for a handy reference, will find what they need here. In this new edition, using a fresh new design and now illustrated in full color, the authors have streamlined the text by focusing on the most efficient means of accomplishing a task, rather than explaining all possible methods. By the end of the book, users will have a solid foundation for working in Photoshop CS3.
