Free Download Photoshop Elements 11: The Missing Manual
In the past I have had Photoshop loaded on my computer, but I rarely used it unless it was to use the autocorrection features. Each year I have a ton of vacation pictures to clean up every year and since I am a programmer I have the occasional need to create graphics. 85% of the time I used a less complex tool like Paint.net.
I' say for the past 2 to 3 years my wife has started making photo albums using online services. She now has the need to do more with the photos than we have in the past. We have been using one software to clean up the images, and then using one of the online services to create the photo books. She also has started making custom cards. Photoshop Elements looked like it may handle all three needs.
I have seen Photoshop Elements in the past, but never really took the time to learn about it. I got this book to see if it can handle our needs before I purchase the software.

This is an excellent book for anyone who has a large photo collection and who wants to use Photoshop Elements 11 to organise and edit their photos on their computer. The book covers everything you'd ever be likely to want to do with your photos other than preparing them for publication in a book (which is the one situation where the author suggests that you should be looking at obtaining the full version of Photoshop as Elements doesn't have all the options necessary to prepare photos for book publication). The book covers all aspects of photo processing from when you first offload them from the camera onto the computer, through how Elements can apply quick fixes to try to resolve the most common problems, manual fixing in expert mode, organising photos, and even how to prepare copies of the photos suitable to share with others either via email or via the web. The book does get a bit technical in places such as where it talks about calibrating your monitor to set the colour mode correctly but most of the sections of the book are written so that they can be used without necessarily having to apply everything else.
Both the Windows and Mac versions of the program are covered. There is very little in the book that deals specifically with one or the other and so the two versions of the program are presumably very similar in how they work. The book can therefore be used regardless of which of the two systems you use and would continue to be useful if you decided at some time to switch from one to the other or if you use both on different computers.
