4.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginners, February 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Photoshop 4 for Windows for Dummies (Paperback)
I received Photoshop with my scanner, and had no manual to refer to. This book is easy to read and allowed me to begin working with Photoshop quickly. However, you will need another reference if you want to achieve the any of the advanced effects.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for a Beginner, but too opinionated, May 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Photoshop 4 for Windows for Dummies (Paperback)
This book is easy reading. However, the author wrote this book on how he uses Photoshop. He doesn't go into certain details like dissolves. He suggests in the book to take out the swatch palette for it is useless. I found it useful and I'm sure others probably would too. Not a book to use to study for the ACE exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thumbs up, January 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Photoshop 4 for Windows for Dummies (Paperback)
This book provides insightful general guidelines and concise details. It is one of the better written Dummies books. However, the figures in the book to illustrate the toolbox is inferior compared to those showed in the book named "Adobe Photoshop 5" published by Adobe.
