You already know that Photoshop is a sophisticated and powerful image-manipulation program. What you may not know is just how easy it can be to learn–given the proper instruction. Designed to be users' first Photoshop guide, this volume works equally well in classroom settings and for self-directed learning, as it provides a flexible, hands-on approach and a CD filled with images you can work along with. Drawing on their years of experience using and teaching the program, veteran authors Dave Cross andMatt Kloskowski use simple step-by-step instructions, loads of visual aids, and a slew of easy-to-follow real-world projects to build on your growing Photoshop knowledge. You'll begin by learning about Photoshop’s interface–how to navigate it and what’s important–before moving on to a series of projects that teaches you how to paint, adjust, and manipulate your images. In the final chapters, you'll tackle more advanced topics like using filters and layer styles, color-correcting images, and more.
