The Photoshop Anthology

photoshop tutorial, photoshop guide, photoshop web tutorialThere are hundreds of online tutorials about creating various web graphic effects in Photoshop. This book shows you how to create many of those same effects, but most solutions include a “Discussion” section that goes beyond the “step-by-step” stage to explain some of the concepts behind the solution, enabling you to understand more of how Photoshop works so that you can apply that knowledge in other situations. One of the most valuable solutions in this book, and which can be found at the beginning of Chapter 8, gives you a conceptual “road map” of how to use Photoshop in the web design process and illustrates it with an example that combines many of the techniques explained in earlier chapters.

Because this book is focused towards web designers, it cover only some of the basic and intermediate tasks related to photo adjustments and retouching. If this area interests you, there are many excellent books, geared towards professional photographers and artists, which provide more advanced instruction than doesthis title.
