Barbara's colorful guide makes it easy for beginners to learn to edit photos and create beautiful designs with Adobe Photoshop Elements -- she even throws in tips for more advanced users. I recommend this book to all my friends who are getting started with Photoshop Elements.
Really helped me get me up and running February 4, 2010

I really enjoyed this book. It doesn't deserve the 1-star reviews. Photoshop is a really complex piece of software and it does have a learning curve: you have to wrap your mind around certain concepts, give it time. I use it for making graphics on web design projects. I was using GRSites for that for a long time, lots of people seem to be, but you still have to learn Photoshop like the "pros", and this book really helped get me started. Give this book a try, you'll be glad you did!

I received this book within a week of ordering it in N. Iraq! The book is set up very well and has really walked me through parts of the program that I thought were going to "leave me in the Dust " I would suggest it to anybody who orders or has Elements 8.

Solves the problem that Photoshops tutorial for Elements 8 is really written for elements 7 and Windows. If you've got elements 8 and a Mac it's hopelessly confusing. Why PS still hasn't updated when Dummies is way ahead of them is a mystery.
