Adobe Photoshop 6.0 Studio Technique goes beyond rote instruction and provides the kind of personal insight and information that will truly help you understand and appreciate Adobe Photoshop. Author Ben Willmore, who has taught Photoshop to more than 6,000 users in his popular seminar, divides the book into three sections. Readers will start with the working foundations of Photoshop, learning the basic tools and palettes, and then move on to production skills, learning how to capture great scans and how to tweak images to perfection. Finally, Willmore explores the creative aspects of Photoshop, showing users how to blend images together, master colorizing techniques, and create advanced type effects. Throughout the book, Willmore explains complex features and jargon in simple, understandable terms. The companion CD contains sample images to work with throughout each lesson, as well as demo plug-ins and software.

Thus, when a new version of the popular program appears, designers tend to stand up and take notice--hen get down to the serious business of learning about it!
