Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Photoshop Elements 6
Book is okay but using the Adobe Elements web page showing "how to" videos is much easier to understand. Also Adobe offers a $79 video workshop which is worth the money if you want to learn. I probably would not buy the book again.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Fraud product number according to Adobe

According to Michael from Adobe, the product number on my box is not in their database so they could not help me. Michael stated that the software must be fraudulent.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - One of the worst Dummies books
Having used the Dummies books before, with great success, I was very disappointed in this book.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It is very halpful.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A book worth reading
I just recently bought this book and hemmed and hawed around as to whether to get this book or the Missing Manual.

I'm glad I went with this book. It is simple and easy to use and it seems to go into detail on some areas, yet missing something on other areas.

By playing around with the program once I've read how to do something, I find I can go further.

I picked up on some helpful hints immediately when I first started reading this book and am keeping my side ... Read More
