I have had Photoshop 4 loaded for a long time and have not been able to figure out how to use it. This book is easy to understand and has explained how to navigate through the steps you want to use. I especially like the ability to download the pictures used in the book so that I can do the exercises that are offered just as they are explained in the book.

This is my fifth photo shop elements user guide.
I wish I bought the Scott Kelby book first- it is by far the best and the only one I use.

Thank you to Scott Kelby for making this book. Even an "adult" could use it. If you are tired of kids being able to use a computer better than you, you will want this book for Photoshop!
GREAT AUTHOR POOR BINDING, July 25, 2008

MR. KELBY DID AN EXCELLENT LOB WITH THIS BOOK, I HAVE BEEN USING IT FOR ABOUT A MONTH. I HAVE LEARNED A LOT. VERY EASY TO FOLLOW.
HOWEVER THE QUALITY OF THE BINDING ON THE BOOK IS THE WORSE I HAVE FOUND. I OWN ABOUT 12 BOOKS ON ELEMENTS. THIS BOOK IS FALLING APART AFTER 1 MONTH. I AM NOT HARD ON BOOKS. I AM GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE THE BOOK APART AND PUT IN A LOOSE LEAF BINDER. I ALMOST THREW IT AWAY. I WILL THINK TWICE BEFORE I BUY ANOTHER ONE FROM THIS COMPANY.
Outstanding book!, July 6, 2008

In the short time I have had this book I have found it not only to answer my questions but give me clear and concise information.
