You're never too good to sharpen your saw!

Where many of the Photoshop "effects" books start your mind racing, Photoshop Classic Effects retunes your creative engine on a far more important level -- it recenters your skill set with better, easier, smarter ways with things many of us Photoshop folk think we can do in our sleep. Pluse, there are twists and updates on the tried and true effects that give them new life, like Beck breathing in some new interest to an Al Green song.

One of the nicer things about this book is how Scott takes you through the steps. Whether you're a Mac or PC guy, entered Photoshop at version 1 or version 7, the steps are logical and easy-to-follow.

Every library needs a cornerstone. This should be the one for the Photoshop user.

How Do I Do What I Want to Do?

Scott Kelby, the editor in chief of Photoshop User magazine talks about not how to use Photoshop, but a series of maybe two hundred little hints and tips that show not only how to do something but clearly illustrates the effect being created using actual screen shots.

These are not the super sophisticated complicated and rarely used procedures. These are the techinques that real everyday users have developed to get their jobs done on a day to day basis. It combines in one volume a whole bunch of "Of course, why didn't I think of that," ideas.

What I find in this book is new ideas of ways to convey the message I'm trying to send. Just one or two such ideas makes the cost and the time spent on the book worthwhile.

Great to flip thru..

I just bought this a few days ago and I really have enjoyed flipping through it. Pretty much its a good 'cookbook' of photoshop techniques and effects.

The book is more targeted for the basic and moderate user. Advanced users may find it a bit dull.

Just fantastic once again from Scott Kelby...

I have 9 different photoshop books, four of them are from Scott Kelby. Scott is definitely a Photoshop God. His books are easy to follow with step by step instruction. This book contains many classic effects that we see in advertisement today. This is a must have for a photoshop user at any level.
