5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Should Come With The Program, May 19 2003
By Phillip E. Isenberg (Winston-Salem, NC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Photoshop Elements 2 Zero to Hero (Paperback)
I was a novice to Photoshop Elements. It looked like a good program, but I really didn't know where to start. I wanted to fix some photos I had scanned into the computer. The manual that came with Elements had a quick start guide to fixing photos. I guess I'm a dummy, but I couldn't figure out the basics of selecting stuff, and what to do if I ever got the part of the photo isolated, that I wanted to repair. Enter Zero to Hero. Tom Arah showed me how to use the selection tools, what layers were for, and how to manipulate the selected areas for best effect. I was able to take old fuzzy photos, with dim lighting, that the automatic correction features of Elements didn't handle well, and make usable images from them. I learned to correct color casts, dim lighting, poorly exposed photos, etc. I am still not a pro, but my family was amazed at what I could do with those photos. I am especially fascinated by the ability to add fill flash to foreground objects and people. All these capabilities were there just waiting for me, but for the life of me, I couldn't figure how to do it, from the manual. Mr. Arah's book has made it possible for even a dummy like me, to use Photoshop Elements with a modicum of expertise. Thanks for the clear and well-illustrated guide, Mr. Arah!
