These days, nobody really needs to learn everything there is to know about taking, managing, and manipulating digital images. And even if you did, who has the time to endlessly tinker and play with it until you figure everything out? You just want a book that will quickly show you how to get things done - things that aren't already covered in the docs, and things you can't just figure out on your own. Digital Photography with Photoshop Album in a Snap is designed specifically for today's computer user: * Somebody who is new to digital photography and image editing and management, but not new to computers. * Somebody who doesn't have time for long-winded, mind-numbing explanations - and certainly no time or patience for bad jokes. Organized into a series of well-organized, bite-sized, quickly accomplished tasks, this book lets the reader zero right in on the one particular task he or she wants to accomplish, quickly figure out what to do, do it, and then get back to work.

Publisher: Sams Digital cameras are all the rage - getting smaller as the price gets lower. No matter how small or how inexpensive, the reader still needs to retrieve the pictures from the camera, organize them on their PC, and correct the red eye on at least one of the photos! This is where Digital Photography with Photoshop Album in a Snap comes in. Using Adobe's Photoshop Album v2, readers can learn the basic task of retrieving photos, understanding how to access entire collections of photos - even video and audio clips, and figure out how to quickly locate any photo by the date it was taken. This book will walk the reader through the task of automatically fixing basic photo problems. Once the reader has mastered the hardware and software they can sit back and have fun creating custom slide shows, cards, calendars, and photo albums. This book is organized into quickly accomplished tasks rather than long chapters on features of Photoshop Album v2. Ultimately, readers want to share photos with friends and family and Digital Photography with Photoshop Album in a Snap allows them to do just that!
