Gary David Bouton's
Inside Photoshop 6
Now Photoshoppers can get powerhouse techniques for the new version 6 from the most celebrated Photoshop authorities in the field... Gary David Bouton, Barbara Bouton, Gary Kubicek and Mara Nathanson...
You've heard us rave about Gary's "Inside" series books before, and with good reason. Now Gary tops his long list of books with this killer guide to the world's most popular image editing software Photoshop.
__ Inside Photoshop 6 is a must-have reference for anyone who is serious about learning Photoshop 6 inside and out. The team of writers and editors go to great lengths to cover both the beginners' trail and the path to greatness using Photoshop. You'll explore all the new features in version 6, like the revved up vector and text tools. You'll get step-by-step guidance through the new filters and special effectstools and you'll learn the finer points of generating just about any image you can dream.
__ This is not just about painting and image creation however. Gary and the team get down to bare-bones business with photo retouching (second only to our own Photo Retouching Seminar), image replacement, image merger and montage, and much more. You'll learn how to acquire and manipulate just about any image you'll ever encounter, and you'll learn how to profile your system to make sure your color is flawless from mouse to printer.
For the fine artist...
In the example above, Gary takes you from the rough drawn pencil sketch one might scan, through all the processes of creating a masterful work of digital art. No other book, technical guide or otherwise, goes into this kind of detail for you.
A superb mentor for fine artists!
__ Inside Photoshop 6 spans 1000 pages including a whopping 40 page index -- one of the best in the industry! Gary's easy to follow, and easy to understand pictorials grace nearly every page and show you exactly how to accomplish the technique in the text. A full color (glossy) insert contains a wonderful gallery of before and after images that work through the major demonstrations. These images are also included on the CD-ROM. Oooops! Did we mention the CD?
__ The CD included with Inside Photoshop 6 nearly justifies the price of the whole book! What we liked best were all the "workfiles" -- taken directly from the text of the book -- that you can use to follow along with the tutorials. Also included are html web sets that follow techniques in ImageReady and Photoshop -- on the CD you find these web sets installed ready to test surf! But that's not all... the CD also includes more than 140 megabytes of fonts, clip art, and textures for both Macintosh and Windows users.
__ But wait... there's more. Inside Photoshop also includes a complete PDF Glossary and help directory -- more than 300 pages of full color illustrations and definitions. You also get a whole collection of newly released demoware to try: Play's Amorphium Modeling program, a ton of filters and plug-ins, and more.
For Web Designers:
Here's How to WIN books like this from the User Group Bookshelf... Send in your review of a recent book you've purchased, attach a jpg of the cover, or an interior spread, and send it along. We value your opinions-- pro or con --and if we select your review, then you get the next book free. It's as simple as that.
Everything from animation to rollovers to image optimization to file formats is covered in a special section of the book, designed specifically for Adobe ImageReady and Photoshop's web tools. The layers chapter could possibly be the most important chapter any web designer will ever find. You could spend hours and hours trying to fathom the information you get quickly and easily form this section of the book. You'll also have fun checking out the finished Web projects on the CD-ROM.
This is the ONE book for Photoshop 6 users
