![]() So yes, I can use computers reasonably well and enjoy tinkering no, I’m not a creative type. Having said that, I am NOT a designer nor particularly talented when it comes to design. So a bit of background about where I’m coming from – I’m a bit of a computer geek who likes to mess around with computer programs in my spare time. No problems with this version at all – I would totally recommend it even! If I could, I’d give this 4. ![]() I bought this for Kindle and read on my iPad mini. Perhaps a lot of experimentation on my own with occasional reference to the book will help, but that defeats the purpose of it. They do however provide the finished work so you know where you’re aiming.īut in going through some of the tutorials I am finding most of my effort is in making sure I don’t miss a step and not really understanding what I am doing. This is in part the limitation of learning from a book instead of video where you can watch the process and then go through step by step. I am no novice and I am even getting confused with their explanation of topics I know quite well. I have left my original thoughts and update because I believe at first glance it looks good, but becomes frustrating. So far I have downgraded the rating on this book. To their credit they do have summary boxes through yellow but these are very basic. They would have been better using simpler tutorials and allowing more space for additional reading. I had hoped that this book would furnish some level of detail.Īlthough the tutorials do cover advanced level techniques, they skip over detail. The point about Photoshop is it’s a significant step up on Lightroom and other entry level packages. Unless you understand what you’re changing, and unless you can clearly see the changes, there is risk of damaging your work. Having just completed the exercise on Masks, at least one part of the tutorial has errors and continues the tendency to just regurgitate values instead of attempting to explain even in basic detail what various settings do, makes me question the value I am getting out of the course. Update: I am starting to find the book frustrating. Video Audio icon An illustration of an audio speaker. Books Video icon An illustration of two cells of a film strip.
