Yes, this book may repeat some concepts from previous books, but these are merely web standards that will be repeated in every book about web design. So obviously, if you already know how to prepare web graphics, you won't find anything new in here, but it's still a great beginners guide and reference book for more advanced web developers.

As always Lynda Weinman has impeccable writing skills---she can make a somewhat tedious subject rather enjoyable and easy to deal with. And I am more than happy to have this digested version handy, even though I have the other books she's written as well.

If you just need to learn about Preparing Web Graphics, this is a good guide book. If you're looking for something more in depth in design or development, try her other books---all of which I highly recommend to designers and programmers alike.

This book provided an excellent orientation to the world of computer graphics. It does not overwhelm the reader new to the field with a lot of unnecessary detail. Instead it provides a much needed, readable review of the essentials. I wish I had picked up this book first, it would have saved a lot of guesswork and time.

I think This book stinks. I bought it in a store a while ago, and even now it hasn't helped one bit! I think that the author of this book should be ashamed of themselves!

I didn't like this book and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The author's ideas are flawed and the book has plenty of errors and logic problems. Overall I think this book hurt my development and design efforts more than it helped. Unless you want to end up scratching your head in confusion, I would steer clear of this one

As much as I like Weinman, I'm afraid to say that I hated this book. Instead of a less expensive version of Designing Web Graphics.2, perhaps the publisher should have lowered the price tag of Designing Web Graphics.2. Definitely overpriced and over-rated

A big waste of money... flighty, conversational tone...book really says absolutely nothing. Tons of pictures, but the author gives no real useful information. This much money would be better spent on a book specific to the imaging program you are using. A waste of shelf space.
