p.c._d. Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 <p>I have just purchased a copy of PS7, and am looking for suggestions on a good reference book to go with it. I have had, and used, PSE4 for a while now, and am comfortable with all the 'basics', plus some of the more advanced features in Elements. What I'm looking for is a book for PS7 that is somewhat along the line of the <i>Missing Manual</i> series for Elements. I don't want something that's for the absolute beginner, since I think my Elements background has brought me past that. Nor do I want something that tells how to achieve certain effects, without the rationale behind the tools used. Something in the intermediate-to-advanced category would be good! <p>Everything I found in a quick search on Amazon seems to be for either the absolute beginner, or else just "tips and tricks"... I'd like something where I can learn more about the features that PS has but Elements does not, instead of rehashing stuff I already know. <p>Any suggestions? Thanks!

ellis_vener_photography Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 look for "Real World Adobe Photoshop 7" or "Adobe Photoshop 7 for Photographers" . If you have legit copy of Ps7, I'd hold off a couple of months and then upgrade to PsCS3 for $170.00 and get a book for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger_kallet Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Go to eBay and enter this in the search window, "Photoshop 7 books". The last I looked, there were about 38-books for sale, most for not much money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armando_reyes Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I've reading "The Photoshop 7 Bible professional edition" from Deke McClelland, is a book for somewhat advanced users in Photoshop. I love this book but now I have CS2 and just ordered "The CS2 Bible".Amazon has it new and used: http://www.amazon.com/Photoshop-Bible-Professional-Deke-McClelland/dp/076451993X/sr=1-9/qid=1171672327/ref=sr_1_9/102-2184132-8667324?ie=UTF8&s=books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
