Thread: Photoshop Book!

I want to learn how to use photoshop. Can anyone suggest a good how-to book? Thanks

There are a bunch of websites you can use. I'm not too sure about books but you can get tutorials off of the internet. Just search for "Beginner Photoshop Tutorials". That should work.

Go to amazon.com and punch in a search for Photoshop books.

I really like the Kelby - Photoshop for Digital Photographers
There are other books out there that are more for graphics and art but I don't know any off hand try amazon or your Barnes and Nobles.

It will give you basics, that will help give you a better rounded knowledge about photoshop.

The web tutorials that PPE suggested are just as good. I like the physical reference though. It never hurts to have on book sitting around.

Get the "Photoshop classroom in a book" for the Photoshop program you have (7.0,cs2) it gives you lessons to practice the different functions of the program step by step. I used it and it was great!

Photoshop can indeed be fun, best investment I ever made.

A good website to go to is www.good-tutorials.com josdin00 recommends it a lot and it has everything from the beginner to the pro - lots of good bits and pieces !

This is why I love this website!!!

Go to Half Priced books or any 2nd hand magazine store and they will have it for about $2.
That is where I get my books.

Also, you can browse the books at Amazon.com-then go to eBay and get them cheap! Tip--Wait until the last few minutes of the sale to put your bid in, so the price doesn't go up to high.

I have ordered Photoshop CS2 Classroom in a book from Amazon. This is my first in-experienced shot at my sig. Once I become wise to the ways of Photoshop I will revise it.
