Excellent, out-of-date, and expensive
Like many people, I cannot justify the great expense of upgrading to Adobe's Photoshop5. Since I already had Photoshop4, I just needed some extra information on using the software for web based design (Photoshop4's area of weakness). That's where this book comes in.

It really is an excellent book, but having already had its 2nd birthday, it is now showing its age in many areas. Thus it is a catch22 situation. Its a great book and one of few that still deals with an older software package, yet it needs some revision. I'm not sure I'll keep it yet.

Perhaps if the out-of-date sections were removed OR the price was dropped so that it was more realistic, it would remain a winner.

Email me if you want to know more about how useful it actually is (and whether I kept it).

Excellent reading, have one question though !
Still not sure how to influence the colors of a particular area of an image (page 73). When I change the indexed color, the whole image changes (I don't see an area receiving preference) although I thought I followed the example. What am I doing wrong?

Other thaen that I found the book very informative and helped a great deal on understanding other areas in Photoshop I had questions about. Thanks!--Mike
