when to use the program's tools is still tricky.

With Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac: The Missing Manual (O'Reilly, US
$44.99) by Barbara Brundage, you'll learn what each tool does, as
well as when it makes the most sense to use it and why. You get

browser that comes with Photoshop CS4-and Elements 8. "As someone
who's primarily a Mac person, I'm really thrilled that Adobe is
bringing out the Mac version of Elements 8 at the same time as the
Windows version," notes Barbara Brundage. "It was really great not
having to wait several months to write the Mac version of the book!"
