2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, March 11, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Adobe Photoshop CS in 24 Hours (Paperback)

I purchased this book to help transition from Photoshop elements to CS and while this book did help in that regard, overall it was disappointing. I was looking for a text with work along photos and examples which this book does provide as a download. When working through the examples though several important photos are missing and in many cases the example steps are incomplete or inaccurate. I also found several key basic techniques to be totally missing and in particular only one of the lessor used photo correction techniques is covered in a less than detailed example. As a beginning tutorial, or for someone transitioning to CS I would not reccomend this book.
