 A Wonderful Resource!
This book was a requirement for one of my college classes, in which most of my class books are sold to make up for what I spent. But this book is definitely one I will keep!
br /
br /If you want to know how to do something in Photoshop you'll find it in here. You'll find everyting in here from using Photoshop's tools (masks, filters, etc.), what file types are best suited for your project, what's the difference between raster and vector graphics and sooo much more!

br /I've only been able to read two or three chapters in full so far (don't say anything to my teacher! It's nearly halfway through the semester!!), but I've used this book a number of times to look up shortcuts and how to do other techniques that we haven't covered in class yet! Sometimes it takes a while to find the material among the hundreds of pages in this book (the book's thickness is listed as 2.3" on Amazon!) So this is NOT meant to be a pocket reference kind of book! But it is a wonderful book for at home reference!
Big Book
There is alot of information in this book. You really need to spend alot of time trying to take it all in. I felt like I needed a teacher to help walk me through all of the pages. I am excited to master this program
 Another must have for graphic designers
I needed another refernce book! I don't like to ask for help because I don't learn that way... I would rather try to slove my Photoshop problems myself. This book ROCKS!! It's great for photographers and graphic designers.
Excellent resource
As always the "Bibles" are excellent resource material.
br /I do however miss some more in depth "How to's" like there used to be (Photoshop 5 bible had excellent step by step additional material on the cd).

Excellent Reference guide
br /I have been a photoshop user for a couple of years, but tend to only edit the obvious such as exposure, color balance, maybe the contrast and/or sharpness and then I'm done. It wasn't until recently that I have been using various layers to enhance my images and im finding that I still lack confidence with the abundance of tools and options CS3 has to offer. I relate these inadequacies to sporadic practice. Like anything, practice makes perfect, and if you don't use it... you loose it. Since photoshop isn't my full time job, I find that I forget minor details more often than not. This is where "The Photoshop Bible," comes in as an amazing resource. First of all the table of contents is written very well. Being able to look up a specific tool or scenario, fast (portraiture, architecture) is vital to a 500 page book of information. This book is relatively new to me and I have already used it several times as reference and im happy I did. Each time I have used the book, I start by scanning the index, after finding the page and reading into it I always find additional information that helps me perform the task more effectively. I also find that his dialogue makes for an easy read that's comprehendible the first time read.
br /
br /I would recommend this book to anyone serious about photoshop, who doesn't have the time to continually practice and learn the new tricks because this author makes it easy! It's easy to find what your looking for and it's easy to read, understand and perform what the author says!
