Review of Paint Shop Pro 8 Fast & Easy [ILLUSTRATED] (Paperback)

This book is an easy read, and provides basic explanation of the key operations to be effective at a beginner or intermediate level of PSP8.The program is one of the most complicated to learn of any I have encountered, so someone relatively unfamiliar with graphics or previous editions of PSP would find this book very useful.It is much better at explaining the basics than JASC's manual, which I found quite difficult.PSP is such a complicated program, many people will need a guide to the basic functions, and this book fits the bill.Someone looking for instruction on advanced topics would probably find the text too basic.I give this an excellent recommendation for PSP beginners.

Product Description
This book covers how to learn to create graphic drawings, enhance photos and create animations. It makes Paint Shop Pro easy to learn with point-and-click instructions.

No heavy jargon, just helpful information. The user-friendly approach is ideal for beginners of Paint Shop Pro looking to enhance any graphics project, and experienced users looking to grasp the new features quickly.
