Photoshop CC: The Missing Manual

Acknowledgements

This book is dedicated to my husband, Jay Nelson, for making everyday life incredibly fun and for learning to appreciate heavy metal music, namely Ozzy Osbourne.

I’d like to express galactic thanks to iStockphoto.com for providing some of the imagery in this book: An image really is worth a thousand words (if you ever need high-quality, affordable graphics, visit www.lesa.in/istockdeal). (Full disclosure: I was their chief evangelist for over six years.) A big hug and thanks to David Pogue who so graciously wrote the foreword for this book. To Jeff and Scott Kelby for believing in me and nurturing my career in immeasurable ways. To Derrick Story for his wisdom before I got started on this project, and a great big jug of Umbrian vino rosso to Dawn Mann for editing this book and keeping me on track. Her input makes me a better writer and I’m lucky to have her on our team. To my brilliant and long-time tech editor, Shangara Singh, whose expertise has helped create the best Photoshop book yet and whose humorous comments always made me giggle.
