Hello,

I’m getting closer to the PhotoShop world and I’m planning to buy the book "PhotoShop Artistry".
I’ve been looking at it (Version 5.5) at the library and it looks very good. The problem is that 5.5 is out of date so I would like your suggestion about the following:
* do the new Artistry book versions include all that has been written in 5.5 or they are just upgraded version?
* are the following releases as good as 5.5?
* which version would you suggest me to buy? (I don’t have any PhotoShop book)

Thank you very much for your help!

Cheers,
Anna Maria

Hallo Anna Maria

I bought ‘Photoshop CS for Windows and Mac’ by Robert Shufflebotham. This is part of the ‘In Easy Steps’ the Leading Computer Book Series Printed and Bound in the United Kingdom.
I also buy the Adobe Photoshop Focus Guide from our local bookshop monthly, and find this two very good entry guides.
Then, I pick leads up from alt.graphics.photoshop, and am still a newbie, but do know much more than only three weeks back:-)

Hi Anna,

Buy the version that matches your version of PS. It’s a very good book for learning with lots of lessons and so forth but, the problem with buying as later version than the version of PS that you are suing is that some of the techniques used won’t be able to be used in earlier versions. It is, though, a superb book to learn from, almost a course in Photoshop.
