5.0 out of 5 stars Adobe GoLive 6 in 24 Hours Mini Review, April 25, 2002
This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Adobe GoLive 6 in 24 Hours (Paperback)
I've been reading Sam's teach Yourself Adobe GoLive 6 in 24 hours on my long commute between Pennsylvania and New York City and am just about finished. My pattern is to read a chapter (the book calls them "hours") a day on the bus and upon reaching my desk, do a quick review and try anything I didn't already know about.

I'm an experienced GoLiver, but although billed as a book for beginners and intermediate users, I find nuggets in every chapter, mostly alternative ways and shortcuts to do what I already knew. I especially benefited from the hour on tables.

The GoLive features are presented in a clear manner without being the least bit condescending. Each chapter builds on the previous chapters. I like the general, non-AGL specific, web authoring advice such as being careful about using frames and the sizing of images.

I did not mind that advanced features were not treated. The authors were upfront in that respect. It is better that we get the basics first anyway.

I have recommended AGL in 24 to a co-worker and friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it again!, January 21, 2003
By 
Aaron Pratola (Pennsylvania, US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Adobe GoLive 6 in 24 Hours (Paperback)
After reading some of the reviews here I was afraid I'd made a poor choice because I had picked up this book in a store, but that couldn't be farther from the truth! The book is really easy to follow, laid out logically and the steps worked perfectly for me. Could it be that maybe some readers are new to computers and just don't understand the basics? Anyway, I created a Website using GoLive templates and couldn't be happier. All I have to do is update the template and Poof! my whole site is updated, too. Thanks to this book I learned this and lots of other great tricks. I especially like some of the tips in the book that relate to the Web in general. I like it. Anyway, that's my input. Hope it helps and thanks for listening.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, January 30, 2003
This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Adobe GoLive 6 in 24 Hours (Paperback)
I had never used GoLive before and was kind of freaked out when I first opened the program. Then I went to an Adobe seminar and one of the authors of this book was a presenter. He was really excellent and knowledgeable, so I decided to buy the book. I'm glad I did! I've now created two Websites and am starting my third. This time I'm getting paid! I know I still have a lot to learn, but this book got me up and running FAST. The best thing about GoLive is the way it works with my Photoshop files. If you haven't used this yet, check out the convert to banner trick!!!! Saves you tons of time!!!!!
