Description

Revised to cover all the new features of Photoshop Elements 4, this full-color book / high-definition video DVD package gives new users the accessible guidance they need to master this powerful but complex digital imaging program from the ground up, while still providing a wealth of tips, shortcuts, and secrets that even the most experienced Photoshop users won't know.
Full Description

Photoshop Elements 4 One-on-One marks a landmark in computer publishing. In addition to offering 12 lessons of project-based tutorials with all sample files included, each lesson starts with a video introduction, hosted by the author himself, Deke McClelland. And these are no ordinary videos. Produced by Adobe's official video training partner, Total Training, each video measures 960 by 540 pixels and plays at 30 frames per second, with no interlacing. That's a play rate of 15.5 million pixels per second, making this the first computer publication to include high-definition video, playable on any modern PC with a DVD-ROM drive. The picture is so crystal clear, it's like watching the world-reknowned expert work right along with you.

In addition to the video -- all new recordings created exclusively for this title -- the book has been completely revamped for Photoshop Elements 4. Inside the full-color pages are new exercises devoted to color-correcting skin tones, auto-tagging images with faces, isolating foreground subjects, extracting people and objects from their backgrounds, creating custom slide shows, correcting red-eye, and sharing images online. Every bit as wildly ambitious and brass-tacks practical as the best-selling image editor itself, Photoshop Elements 4 One-on-One will have you gasping with amazement at your own creations. Deke puts the magic of digital imaging squarely where it belongs -- in your hands.

This is a great book - if I had gotten it a few weeks earlier it would have saved my hours. I learned so much from just the first few chapters. I'm about to start the real heavy stuff, but I am so happy with the book, I just had to share my experience,

This is a great tool IF (and that is a big IF) you use a PC with windows not a mac. I use a mac and I have the PSE4 version that works on a mac of course. This book came up in all the searches I did to find help in learning how to use PSE4 on a mac. so I bought it. BUT it doesn't help if you have the mac version. VERY frustraiting. It appears to be a great book though, but useless to a mac user.

I have now had my copy of PSE4 'One on One' for four days. What a brilliant teaching tool, both the book and the DVD! I am now in my seventies, fairly much a graphics novice, but with a lot to do with education over the years as a contract tutor. When I say ' a brilliant teaching tool' I speak as an educator and as a novice learner in graphics. There is so much here for me for years to come, yet also accessible to me now. It really is Christmas.
