PaintShop Photo Pro X3 For Photographers

Amazon reviews for previous editions:

"These folks have been producing excellent supplementary guides for several versions of PaintShop Pro. I've been using the application for YEARS, and it still provided very good additional tips and tricks, techniques, explanation of new features or things that I hadn't used yet, etc., etc. I've given to a number of friends that are just getting their feet wet in Digital Editing when they want to more than "the BASICS" with the applications that came with their camera, but they weren't ready to go to Photoshop by a long shot. All of them have appreciated the "jump-start" that this gave them."

"...I really wanted to get into more sophisticated techniques like advanced selection techniques, use of histograms, advanced layers & masks, etc. Ken McMahon's PSP Photo X2 For Photographers was just what I needed to get me up to speed on the latest version of PSP, plus sharpen my skills in the previously mentioned techniques. Note that this book is rated Intermediate, so it is not for those who are new to basic photo editing techniques. The book is clear, well organized, has lots of good illustrations, and with easy to use index and tabs. It is a pleasure to read and use."

"...this book is the easiest way to learn all the new features, or, if you haven't owned Paint Shop Pro before, to get up to speed with the image editor. Everything is organized into easy to follow lessons and can help you learn the function of every tool and feature. Recommended."

"This book is very good for the purpose I bought it. Latest you can get on this subject."

"While there are hundreds of books for the various versions of PhotoShop, it seems like there are very few books available for Paint Shop Pro. So just finding Paint Shop "Pro for Photographers" was a treat, but to have be such a thorough and easy to use reference was a stroke of luck. I've really enjoyed reading it, and it's provided me with a lot of useful tips and guidance."
