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

this book would be excellent except for the publisher's screw-up on the pages in chapter one where page 17-33 are missing and some pages are repeated. an email to the publisher has, tp date, remained unanswered.

I first bought Kelby's guide to Photoshop Elements 4.0. I was flabbergasted at how easily I learned to do fairly complicated things with the program, and have eagerly upgraded to each new book as I upgraded my software. I whiten teeth and eyes with ease, and have even used his direction to add (or subtract!) people to or from photos.

The best thing about these books is their inclusion of EVERY step, for each technique taught. He doesn't skip steps because he assumes you know them-- it's all there.

If I had to recommend only one PSE book to someone trying to get the hang of the program, this would be it. In fact, I'm providing it as an adjuct to PSE classes I teach at my scrapbook store; it's the perfect way for my students to move beyond the basics with confidence!

I have a number of books by Scott Kelby and find his writing easy to follow and I always learn something new. The book itself had alot of the same examples as the Elements 5 book. I know that the book is written for the beginner so that was appropriate. I am hoping he comes out with a teaching book with more advanced topics. Great book and would recommend for anyone using Elements.

While very comfortable with Photoshop Elements, each time you upgrade there are changes and it is hard to keep up with them all. This guide cuts right to the chase and it is very easy to follow along. It was very helpful in getting me right up to speed on PSE 6.
