Customer Reviews

Good buy
Teach Yourself VISUALLY Photoshop Elements 6 (Teach Yourself VISUALLY (Tech)) Fast shipping and like new. Good to deal with.

Does this cover the Mac Version of Photoshop Elements?
I would like to purchase this book, but only if it covers the Mac version of Photoshop Elements 6. Can someone help me out on this?

Fair Photoshop manual
This manual has quite a few shortcomings. It's main shortcoming is it doesn't tell you how to combine portions or whole pictures. Most people will want to do this. I suggest you get a more comprehensive manual that covers this.
