Customer Reviews
How easy is that
I have been trying for ages to find a simple yet thorough training program for Photoshop. Without talking down to you, this is it. It is basic, but for a beginner, it's excellent.
UAP
Took me a while to find this but boy is it cool. Great content and at a good pace. Learned a lot in a short time.
Bite-sized Chunks of Photoshop
True, this series is aimed primarily at users of the Photoshop CS series, but there are many things that are not beyond the scope of those of us who use Photoshop Elements, especially version 8, which offers the full Camera Raw plugin. As the other reviewers have said, Richard Harrington does not make me feel that I am being talked down to. It's a nice, bite-size alternative to Photoshop User TV, without the [sometimes cringeworthy] jokes.
