This simple, no-nonsense guide teaches beginners how to get up and running quickly in Paint Shop Pro, the inexpensive image editor and Web graphics tool from Jasc, Inc. The authors start you off with a tour of the interface and proceed to help you acquire images from scanners, digital cameras, the Web, and other sources. You learn how to create selections; work with layers; manage and apply color; use the drawing and photo-retouching tools; create masks; apply filters; work with deformations and arithmetic; place and fine-tune artistic type; and save, convert, and print files. Finally, you create Web images such as buttons, rules, and banner ads with image maps and browser-safe colors. The last chapter reviews Animation Shop, the GIF-animation tool that ships with the program. Appendices cover keyboard shortcuts and list Web resources for learning more about Paint Shop Pro. Throughout the book, the authors present step-by-step instructions for each exercise along with general usage tips. While they successfully avoid bogging you down with needless detail, they are also not overly simplistic. --Kathleen Caster
