Book Description

When it comes to Photoshop, time is money. Killer Tips books are written with one goal in mind: to allow readers to work faster and smarter, while actually increasing the quality of their work. In other books, you'll often find that the most useful information is found in sidebars, tips, and notes. In a Killer Tips book, there's nothing to weed through: it's all sidebars, tips, and notes! Here, Scott Kelby and Felix Nelson give you hundreds of productivity-enhancing Photoshop CS3 secrets that even a lot of pros don't know about including all of its newest features (such as nondestructive Smart Filters, Vanishing Point with Adjustable Perspective Planes, Automatic Layer Alignment and Blending, the Quick Selection tool, and integration with Lightroom). The authors' trademark style--both direct and humorous--is easily accessible to all readers, who will appreciate all the great information here, as well as the book's clear and focused presentation.
