I have Photoshop Elements 3 for Mac. Please recommend a book for starters. Thanks, Raoul

Welcome! I have Scott Kelby's book "The Photoshop Elements 4 Book for Digital Photographers", it's awesome! You could just get the Elements 3 book I am sure. But I use a PC, not Mac, so maybe that isn't right. I know that you'll get lots of help once everyone in the country is awake! ;)

Hi there Raoul ...

... and welcome to the forum :)

What sort of things do you want to do with Elements ... (correcting photographs from your camera, restoring photos, creating things etc ...) and have you any experience at all using Elements :)

Usually, Kelby's and Brundage's book are a must for starters. I suggest you have a look at those two. Kelby is more "recipe" oriented, where Brundage is the complete reference.

I'm looking for a beginners book for PS Elements 3 for Mac. I find on for 4 and for PCs but not specifically PSE 3/Mac. Can you help?

Hi Raoul ...

I don't think that there are any specific PSE3 books for the Mac .. but you will find that most books give instructions for both Mac and Windows :)

The Missing Manual has Mac screen shots (I know because I have it), if this helps you (for PSE3).

I'm a newbie, Mac user and I've found the Kelby book great with the Brundage missing manual. Also become a subscriber to this forum and look at all of the videos and tutorials.
