Photoshop 6 Most Wanted

I really find it especially unfair that many people are knocking down the score of this very excellent book because they say that this book isn't for newcomers. I quote from the editor's note right on this website:"This book is for both the enthusiastic amateur and experienced pro alike - it's full of techniques and advice that will help Photoshop users from intermediate to advanced."So, please, if you are going to bash this book for its difficulty, think twice, ok?As for my own review: 4/5 because some of the effects I really don't see why they are wanted at all....

This is a great book covering how to do many different effects in Adobe Photoshop. Among the included effects are wood, metal, glass, lighting, 3D, changing colors such as eye color, video effects, and many other interesting effects. The book is a simple step by step guide that anyone can follow and even as a web designer I picked up some interesting tricks in this book. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to add to their photoshop "bag of tricks."

Great book, got it a few days ago and just as I thought it is packed with cool effects. This book teaches you the good stuff right away and is easy to follow. I have already learned some new tricks and this book has been teaching me new ways of using photoshop.

Photoshop novices and veterans alike will benefit from this exciting collection of effects and design tips. Step by step instructions in easy to understand language with crisp color graphics. In the last 48 hrs I've created at least a dozen images containing effects I hadn't been able to achieve previously. My enthusiasm for Photoshop has reached a whole new level. I am positively thrilled with this purchase!

Have been a member of Al Ward's website for years and purchased this new book. Just received my copy and I have found it probably THE best supplemental book on Photoshop 6.01 that I have - and I've got about 7-8 of them in addition to the User's Manuals. Very easy reading and the step-by-step instructions to create some fantastic Photoshop images are OUTSTANDING!Where's the next book, Al, Colin????
