Full Description
Photoshop Elements 7 includes lots of new tools for sprucing up your photos, like the Scene Cleaner that lets you get rid of unwanted elements and the Smart Brush that makes touch-ups a breeze. But the one thing you won't find in Elements is reader-friendly guidance on how to get the most out of this powerful program. Enter
Photoshop Elements 7: The Missing Manual, ready to explain not only
how the tools and commands work, but
when to use them.
With this bestselling book (now in its 5th edition), you'll learn everything from the basics of loading photos into Elements to the new online photo-sharing and storage service that Adobe's offering (for free!) at Photoshop.com. There's so much to Elements 7 that knowing what to do -- and when to do it -- is tricky. That's why this book carefully explains all the tools and options by putting each one into a clear, easy-to-understand context.
- Learn to import, organize, and fix photos quickly and easily
- Repair and restore old and damaged photos, and retouch any image
- Jazz up your pictures with dozens of filters, frames, and special effects
- Learn which tools the pros use -- you'll finally understand how layers work!
- Create collages and photo layout pages for scrapbooks and other projects
- Fix your photos online and synch the changes to your own photo library
As always, author Barbara Brundage lets you know which features work well, which don't, and why -- all with a bit of wit and good humor. Dive into Adobe's outstanding photo editor and find out why this Missing Manual is the bestselling book on the topic.

Way better than the help files.,

I enjoy using Photoshop Elements a lot, and after reading this book for a while I found myself flipping through its pages when I had a questions, instead of reading the help files that come with the program.
It uses an easy to understand language and shows you every step of the way on how to do something.
I would recommend this book to anyone just getting started with Photoshop Elements or even those that have used the program for a while but want to use it to its full potential.
