Reader Reviews
How to Cheat in Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 is a wonderful look at how to create some of the effects I've been wondering about. The manual is very easy to read with loads of beautiful images to compliment the intrustional text, making learning even easier. The step by step instructions are easy to understand and its just a matter of following the steps to create your own digital manipulations that make your photos look great. I'd recommend this book to anyone with an interest in photography, digital art, or scrapbooking.
