Hi Scott,
Would it be possible to show a typical page (or enable the ‘look inside’ on Amazon)?
Thanks
Christopher

Scott,

When will you make a new edition of Photoshop Down & Dirty Tricks?

Congradulations Scott on another book, I would write urging folk to preorder a book but I am still awaiting the Photoshop CS3 Killer Tips I ordered in Sept 2007 . It still has not shipped yet, wonder what’s up? Chapters in Canada is showing the book published Oct 2007. Wonder if it will ever reach the public prior to Photshop CS4 hitting the streets. I know,just bugging, you have commented it is the publisher that is the issue. Too bad it makes a sour feeling to those who have been waiting for many, many , many months. Anyways, thank-you for the 7 great reads I have obtained and the knowledge I have gained , your are a great and wonderful writter. All the best.

Hmm..this reminds me of the book you wrote, “Macintosh: The Naked Truth” I kinda want to read it to see what your opinions are and what you have to say. I’m not really a PC only or Mac only guy right now. But I used windows for sometime and now for work I have been using a Mac Pro Quad with intels. Really…I haven’t seen anything about Macs that I like more than PCs. The programs crash just as much and less software. However Macs are stupid simple and thats nice. I’m just curious to see if I’m missing out on something haha. They are both great machines. But I think I might just go back to PC.

Yea! I will be buying this! We have been a Mac family for a year now, and love our Macs–but I know there is a ton of cool stuff we don’t know! Thank you!

â€œExcelsiorâ€, I always buy you book they are excellent you have the writing talent; I wish we (Mac User) could have the opportunity to read a book about “Aperture” from you.

I, at some point will be purchasing a mac laptop so this book will be good for me. However I do have a question. Currently I have Photoshop elements. I’m just a mom who loves taking pictures and playing with them and learning to do new things with my camera. I’d love CS2 but the budget just isn’t there for that. What I’m wondering is if you recommend the Elements for Mac or if you recommend one of the Mac programs like Aperture? If I understand correctly I think they actually do two different things, so should I get both or just one?

Scott,

You might want to do some more research on the “Orphan Works” issue you posted about. I follow a few other blogs that cover these issues, and there is definitely another view on the topic.

For another take on the issue, your readers might want to check out Radio Free Meredith’s blog posting here: http://maradydd.livejournal.com/374886.html

She raises some very good points, and she also points you to several other sources that describe the issues in good detail. Before you write your Congress Critter, you might want to check it out.
