Not much different from Photoshop CS2 [Posted on 2008-07-01] Don't get me wrong, this is a decent book but if you own the previous one on CS2 there is little to justify the purchase - hence the low rating.
Ben is the best!... [Posted on 2008-07-10] The author, Ben Willmore, is the hardest working Photoshop "Guru" that I know of! His head is overflowing with things to do in the "latest" evolution of Photoshop, whatever that may be (currently CS3). I have been to his seminars and buy his books FIRST when the kind folks at Adobe release another dynamite, dynamic piece of software. Ben even puts out the first "Up to Speed" book that I look for, so I don't have to rehash all the things I already know.
About this book, I have only skimmed the surface of what's available inside. If I had gone cover to cover upon receipt of this book, I think my head would have exploded long ago! Don't let the title scare you away...you DON'T need to have a "studio"! A lot of this is the same stuff you get at the seminars Ben does, only more detailed than the handouts!
In my opinion, you can't go wrong with anything written by this man. He is a wonderful speaker and author! 5 Stars!
THis book is not for the newbie photoshopper [Posted on 2008-07-26] I have been to a 2 day Photoshop seminoar hosted by Ben Willmore. Much of what he taught came from this book. Ben is recognized around PS circles as a guru. I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 because I feel this book is written for someone who has been using PS for awhile and now ready to dig a little deeper. The book is well written and presented in a nice swquence of chapters. If you are looking for a good intermediate book on PS this is your man. I also like Scott Kelby's books expecially if you are first learning to use PS.
I live on Photoshop [Posted on 2008-09-24] The price was excellent and condition fabulous, didn't recieve this particular book in the time I needed for classes compaired to other shipments I have had but the information the book provided was priceless and I learned so much from it.
Ben Willmore is a master. [Posted on 2008-10-24] I'm taking a digital art class at my university this semester and reading Ben Willmore's CS3 Studio Techniques fills in all the gaps left out because of time constraints (we meet once a week for 5 hours). I've been showing my professor some of the techniques I've learned because of this book - things he hasn't discovered and he's been in the professional field for 8 years. I recommend this to anyone wanting the ins and outs of Photoshop explained incredibly well. Thanks Ben!
