5 out of 5 stars Excellent guide to the essentials of Elements 6   July 27, 2008
 9 out of 9 found this review helpful

This book does all it says on the tin and more. That is, it provides a perfect substitute for the manual that I would have hoped to have found in the box. But in fact it does much more than this, because it is written in a very readable style, and provides helpful tips and advice that one would not generally expect to find in the average software manual. I feel quite annoyed that I was nearly put off buying it because a couple of the earlier reviews said its presentation was poor.
In my view the presentation is absolutely fine, it's perfectly adequate for its purpose, and is well up to the standard of presentation that one should expect for a book in this price bracket. If you are looking for a manual that covers the essential fucnctions of Elements 6 in a helpful way then I thoroughly recommend it.



3 out of 5 stars Informative but poor quality printing   April 4, 2008
 9 out of 11 found this review helpful

the information is good, however..

my one real negative is the quality of the paper as mentioned by another reviewer. it is very poor as far as the images go (fine for text). it is difficult to distinguish detail in the images, and as it is a photographic imaging book this is a pretty big minus!



4 out of 5 stars Good manual   March 14, 2008

I purchased this book for 2 months ago and i have had time to go throuhgt it enough to recommend this book as a manual for elements 6. It will not teach you how to make picture art but will help you to understand and use elements 6. Could like that the organiser had been more covered. A good book if you are new to elements 6.


2 out of 5 stars PE6 - Manual Still Missing   March 13, 2008
 25 out of 29 found this review helpful

I had great hopes for this book. Wonderful reviews on amazon.com and so on. For a book about graphics, it's a real disappointment. It's badly printed on cheap paper, so that it's almost impossible to distinguish between before and after photos, for example. And as Elements uses a trendy black ground, screen shots are almost impossible to distinguish. Having said that, the content is excellent: entertaining and interesting, generally well written. Just a dreadful production job - and I mean really appalling. Check it out before buying.


5 out of 5 stars THIS IS THE ONE.   November 21, 2007

Having praised BBs previous editions of this book,I can only reiterate
my opinion that if you just want one book to guide you through the many
facets of Adobes latest afordable masterpiece this is it.As good as Philip Andrews books are...& they are very good,Barbara Brundage seems to know the next question that you are going to ask.You don't have to ferit(!)about in the index as much,looking for the right word to lead to the solving of your question.Get it.Just as a little PS go to the chapter on RAW images & learn to revel in the fact that Adobe now let you edit your JEPEG & TIFF files in the super new RAW workroom...wonderful.Just try that CLARITY filter.(Can this be down to the Danish Rawshooter guys?)BUY & ENJOY.
