The Photoshop Elements 6 Book for Digital Photographers (Voices That Matter)

I own an Imac. I've found this book, especially instructions related 2 printing, close 2 useless. Why is this so? Because the book is essentially designed 4 PC users, & details that a Mac user would need are offered as an afterthought. Which is 2 say they're cursory, poorly organized & often unclear. Photoshop Elements is complicated enough 2 learn without its capabilities being further muddied by someone who cannot think clearly or is basically uninterested in Macs. Many people, myself included, love using a Mac because we prefer not 2 spend hours tinkering with a computer (though I did that 4 years with a PC). This manual defeats the ultimate intent of owning a Mac. Someone needs 2 write a Photoshop Elements manual exclusively 4 Mac users. I regret having bought this one.

I bought 2 other books about learning PSE6 & I wish I had bought this one first & I wouldn't have needed the other books.

Kelby always produces a thorough & entertaining look at Photoshop Elements. This is the 3rd of his books I have tried. Each one has had wonderful shortcuts & settings information that make using the Adobe program much easier. You don't have 2 work through the whole book 2 learn just what you need 2 fix a problem either!

this book wasn't helpful 4 me, i returned it the first day.
it's a good book 4 getting your photo chops together.
for learning photoshop element moves, i wouldn't recommend this one unless you already have an understanding of photoshop.

This is an excellent book with lots of color photos 2 guide you through the tasks. Instructions are done in steps which makes it easy 2 follow.
