Recommendations Recommendations Below are some of the books I recommend for those wanting more information about Photoshop, Access, or web development. I have broken the books into two categories. Comes with CD that includes all the files necessary for the tutorials. Oriented towards intermediate to advanced users. Excellent coverage of color correction and advanced masking.
CD comes with all images used in book.
Book Linnea Dayton, Jack Davis Peachpit Press ISBN 0201353717 Tries to combine tutorial with reference material. Focuses on showing how to achieve a given special effect. It teaches in a clear, well-organized style that guides the user through techniques rather than touring the application itself. The only real problem with the book is that its CD includes very few of the images used in the text. Great for advanced users seeking to gain practical insight into typical pre-press related Photoshop issues.
