Teach Yourself Adobe Photoshop 5 in 24 Hours

I liked this the best of all the Photoshop books. It had the best pictures, and the best explanations, and I really feel like I can use the program the way I want.

I needed to learn the basics of Photoshop quickly in order to get my web site up and running, and this book did just that. It was clear and easy to understand, and I was able to apply my new knowledge instantly. No, this book will not turn you into a power user, but that's not what it sets out to do. If you want to get up and running quickly, with a very reasonably priced book, this is a great choice.

I knew nothing about Photoshop before I read this book. 3 weeks later, after I finished the book, I feel like a very comfortable beginner. I can sit down at the program and I whiz through the many features like a pro! A must buy book for anyone who wishes to learn the very basics. You go away with an understanding of the multitude of easy-to-use features in Photshop. From there, you can purchase another book for advanced lessons or simply enjoy what youve learned. I am so GLAD that I bought this book.
