Rating: - i learned a lot from this book
As a person who uses photoshop for doing graphic/fine art, I learned a lot from this book it helped master what can be a very clunky program and use it to develop my fine art skills on computer also has 5.5 ( i am using 6 now ) get this book and you too will be able to use this unqiue program.
Rating: - An Uneven Book
As a newcomer to Adobe PhotoShop, I had high hopes for this book. It is of some limited usefulness but ufortunately it is a very uneven book.
As others have written, the overuse of grade-school level humor detracts somewhat from it. Far worse is the author's practice of glossing over some very basic concepts, such as how to resize an image without noticeable loss of resolution, how to begin work on a new photographic layer and how to "flatten" an image seamlessly.

Rating: - excellent book
i went through it with my term project images and got an A Simple to understand and basically just excellent. If your the kind who like to read through the entire manual first to get a rough idea of what photoshop is about, this is perfect. The humour was nice to have, but get slightly out of hand at times. But hey! it is a good book!
Rating: - Too much keyboard shortcut information
I didn't know anything about Photoshop before I bought this book. It is helping me to learn the basics, but I find the humor to be distracting. I'm also frustrated by the amount of information on shortcut keys early in the book. I'm sure I'll be grateful for the information some day, but not while I'm learning the product. It's too much.
Rating: - Too much humor
I think I'm a humorous person and enjoy a good laugh as much as the next guy. BUT I did'nt buy Photoshop for dummies to get a laugh. What I want in an instruction book is how to do it PERIOD. Maybe there is much information to be learned from this book and maybe I can learn it when I'm done wading through the low grade humor.
