This is a must have product for anyone that owns Photoshop Elements 6. Fantastic step by step instructions on USEFUL projects. I have referred to this book every day since I purchased it.
 Not for the new user. . . . May 8, 2008

This is a very nice book and well written. I've enjoyed Scott Kelby's books on digital photography and gave this book a shot.
Well, I am brand new to Photoshop Elements and started with version 6. This book assumes that the user is already fairly well versed in Photoshop Elements previous 5 versions.
Wouldn't recommend to the brand new user.

The Photoshop Elements 6 Book for Digital Photographers (Voices That Matter)
Scott Kelby & Matt Kloskowski take you by the hand and step by step teach you to get the most out of your photos---I can't believe the things I can do with photos nor can my friends who are now sending me their photos for all sorts of corrections. Buy Element 6 & this book to get off to a fast start---no technical background needed---it is written for amateur photographers who have never retouched photos.
 Good overview, short on details July 5, 2008

On page xv of this book the authors describe my major beef with it when they say, "I tried not to put things in this book that are already in ever other Elements book out there". While the content of the book is really very good, it leaves a lot out. If you are new to Photoshop of any variety, this book is not for you. It is a collection of individual "recipes" for making various corrections and adjustments. I am not new to Photoshop so they all make sense to me, but it still would have been good to have Chapter 1 be a crash course in the basics.
Make PS Elements do what CS can do May 6, 2008

Scott Kelby's books, this one included, are the essential conpanion to PS Elements. He shows you how to use all of Elements features and work arounds to accomplish some tasks only available in the big brother version of Photoshop CS. This book is a "how to", not a "theory of" book. Kelby tells you what settings to use for specific tasks, then encourages you to explore further. I have used PS Elements from PSE 1 thru the current PSE 6, so I am very familure with Elements, but I keep Kelby's book handy to help me do new things. I shoot almost exclusively in "RAW", and this book walks you thru each step in processing your images. DON'T TAKE ANOTHER PICTURE WITHOUT THIS BOOK!
