1.0 out of 5 stars PSP8 Solutions, July 5, 2003

By A Customer

This book obviously written to be the first PSP book available after Jasc's latest version appeared and it shows. Extremely superficial coverage of subject matters. If you don't have a magnifying glass available be absolutely certain you do not buy. You will never be able to read the screen shot examples printed in the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Covers more than other basic PSP8 books, August 28, 2004

By	TheCafeWriter (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

In the first chapter, the book defines the audience as beginning-intermediate. If you've used Paint Shop Pro 8 before, it may be too basic for you. I'm an intermediate user, but I still found shortcuts, tips, and workarounds in this book I didn't know about, so it was worth having.

I finally broke down and bought Paint Shop Pro 8 and knew I best get me a book to help me out with it.

This book is very easy to read, very easy to understand and best of all it answers your questions in terms that makes sense.

I really like this book. And am glad I bought it.
