Microsoft Image Composer for Dummies: With CDROM [With CDROM]

I must give this book 5 stars. I am not a big fan of the " dummies" series nor am I new to web graphics. I had sooooo much trouble with MIC , even the bottun editor. I bought every book I could find and there wasn't many. This book was the winner, it did help clarify what Microsoft found it so hard to make easy. I do prefer Illustrator or even Freehand but if you are forced to use MIC this book you must have!

A Super Must Have book for anyone who's creative.

My FrontPage CD included the Microsoft Image Composer, but Inever really made much use of it. Then I bought the "Dummies'book and realized how much I had been missing. The first fourchapters, alone, were worth more than the price of the book. I recommend it to anyone who is at all creative, and not just for web sites.

If you're new to Microsoft Image Composer, then you must get this book. Brian Johnson writes with clarity and humor which takes the intimidation factor out of learning this program. While MIC makes web graphics creation as easy as it gets, it's still a great help to have a guide to lead you through the short learning curve. Brian Johnson inspires confidence. With a little patience and this book, you'll be cranking out graphics like a pro. Power users of MIC may not lean anything new, but for the price, it's a good reference tool.
