 Excellent book, just get it if you have Elements 6 May 13, 2008
As an Elements newbie, I needed a lot of help on all its great photo-editing features.
I ordered the book somewhat blind, doing so at the same time as purchasing Elements itself, so I wasn't sure as to what I would be getting (however the other reviews obviously helped!). What a nice surprise.
This book has helped with meaningful step-by-step instructions on all the areas I needed to have covered. It has an easy-going style, without too many attempts at humor - just enough to keep a good balance.
Its layout and structure help as well, with each section being complete, so you don't have to refer to earlier sections for instructions.
The task choices cover a wide range, so there isn't too much focus on a single area. The balance has prompted me to try most of the tips/tasks - I'm still working my way through them.
Great paper and print quality as well.
With this as an introduction to their work, I'll be looking at the authors' other books in the near future.
Annies review. May 12, 2008
I find this book very helpful as I have not fully explored the Elements program previously - by reading ahead and then following the tutorials with the book in front of the computer, I find I can make a difference to my photos.
I do not particularly like the language of the preamble, but the important bits are clearly written and easy to understand.
 The Photoshop Elements 6 Book May 9, 2008
The absolute best PSE 6.0 book today! Scott Kelby proves once again that his books are always worth waiting for. Scott and Matt Kloskowski have produced the best, user freindly instruction book ever on Photoshop Elements 6.0! Step by step, and always in the order you need the information. A real must for developing the skills you need and want in mastering PSE 6.
 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.
Make PS Elements do what CS can do May 6, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
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!
