Amazon.com Review

This 867-page book is an exhaustive guide to Photoshop--one of the biggest we've seen--and focuses on the many new features and changes in Photoshop 4.0 for Windows and Macintosh. The authors write about creating Web backgrounds and graphics, creating animations, and integrating illustrations and 3D graphics from other packages. You also get in-depth instruction on creating interesting type effects, using plug-ins, and creating composite works from various photographs. There are just a few full-color pages, which show final images along with explanations of the techniques. A CD includes practice files, a glossary, a resource guide, utilities, images, textures, and fonts. If you want a book that covers every aspect of Photoshop and that addresses the needs of fairly accomplished Photoshop users, this is the one to get.

    Inside Adobe Photoshop 4 is a classic. As a new photoshop user, I needed a comprehensive guide to help me catch up with the rest of the photoshop world. Inside Adobe Photoshop 4 is doing that nicely. Text is easy to read and the accompanying cd provides the material required for the guided tasks.
    For customers buying a used text ---- make sure it comes with the companion cd!

    First,a comment about the first reviewer on the list, the viewer from New york who rated it "Horrible". Look sharply Sir, you have rated the wrong book. This book is not the PhotoShop 4 "WOW" book! I did not purchase the book but I did look it over thouroughly and I found it to be well organized,consise and complete especially for entry level. The only reason I diden't buy it is because I have six other books on Photoshop4 and I have just upgraded to Photoshop version 5.0. As far as the CD is concerned,I didn't have the option to try the tutorial CD. But I have had trouble with tutorial CD's in the recent past because some CD tutorials work in conjunction with specific Browsers (offline)in order to bring up the tutorials. I could not get my "Photoshop5 Certification Guide" CD to operate propery until I upgraded my browser to IE 5.0. Try E-mailing the publisher, I found that they can somtimes resolve the problem.

    I have been using books written by Gary Bouton and his wife Barbara for awhile now. I'm looking back at this particular book as a milestone in my Photoshop education. I took this book, and for a month I slowly read, re-read, underlined and executed the lessons until I truely understood what I was doing. By re-reading and trying the lessons I was able to overcome the stubborn paradigms I created which normally keep me from understanding what is being said.
    This effort has paid off. I'm currently using Adobe Photoshop 5.5 and it's no problem. Thank you Gary and Barbara for taking on a task this immense. If any of you have ever written technical lessons you can appreciate the monumental effort it would take to create an 1134 page textbook with two associated CDs. Thank you, but no thank you.
    I have since purchsed their "Inside Adobe Photoshop 5" book and am enjoying it as well. I must admit that I haven't read it with a fine tooth comb as I did this Photoshop 4 book. Shame on me. I have been perusing it of late and notice that it has some good stuff to try.
    For those of you who don't know it, the Bouton's keep a website that is full of information and any corrections that their books need. That's a very nice feature; [...]
    I've been using Photoshop for fine art, severely damaged photo restoration, logo creation, brochure creation and web graphics. It's still the greatest. Try it, you'll like it. :-)

    Gary David Bouton writes in the most logical, effective manner I have ever seen in this type book. This is a COMPREHENSIVE guide to Photoshop 4. It is a large book, filled with hands on tutorials (not to mention two CDs packed with lessons and extras) that begin with the very basics, build on them...and take you well into advanced techniques. At no time are you left hanging... every step in each technique is not only covered, but the logic behind it is explained. This book is written so skillfully that both beginners and Photoshop veterans will find Mr. Bouton's explanations and comments fascinating and invaluable. You will pick up REAL SKILL and a lasting foundation in Photoshop from this book... not to mention hundreds of cool effects to show off with!

    I bought this book after searching through dozens of Adobe Photoshop 4.0 titles. This particular book is an incredible compendium that really turns the novice Photoshop user into a pro. Each chapter covers a different Photoshop task, making it easy for the reader to personalize the tutorial to his/her needs. And each little mini-tutorial is incredibly thorough, with dozens of examples and lots of step-by-step exercises that make each procedure second-nature. After only a few days, I moved from Photoshop ignoramus to website developer! ( )

    This book covers everything you need, not only to get started, but to keep going. The excercises are well-presented and refer to files available on the CD-ROM.
    The authors' style is witty without going overboard (like the "Dummies" series). The arrangement of the lessons provides an interesting departure from the predictable. Also the writers present working studio methods as well as basic techniques.
    The section which most characterizes the consideration the authors show for their readers is the depth coverage of the "preferences" menu items to personalize Photoshop. This occurs early but not before we have had a chance to play with the tools a bit.
    I have found this quite a useful book for learning Photoshop.

    This is an outstanding book which introduces the Photoshop user to most of the essential concepts through a series of tutorials based on images on the included CD-ROM. And although it is suitable for the novice, it provides much more than an introduction. One example of this is that it shows you multiple ways of accomplishing something at various points throughout the book. I was continually impressed by Photoshop's depth as I discovered layer after layer (pun intended!) of features. Another important point is that these tutorials illustrate real-world techniques and projects that end with a result that you might have been proud of if you had done it all on your own. I would also point out that the tutorials were accurate and correct, unlike some I have used for other products. In other words, the text agreed with what Photoshop's menus, etc. were doing and it agreed with the contents of their CD-ROM.
