Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good book with lots of graphical theories
Review: After glancing through the few chapters of the book, I must say this is a book for anyone who is new to graphics programming as it offers lots of code samples and theories as it says on the back.

If you're looking for a book about printing than this is not it, it only offers one chapter of info on it and I don't think it's all that useful (I don't program printing so I don't know)

An added bonus of course is the 3D graphics chapter with topics such as ray-tracing and such. :P

Oh and this is NOT a DirectX book, it's mainly uses the Windows API and a lot of VB code, no C here.

Summary: Excellent book, I would highly recommend it!
Review: This book is a must have. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to go into VB Graphics Programming...

I have read several of Rod's other books, and visited his website many times. I heard about this book and went and bought it. Boy, I was not disappointed.

Summary: Excelent Reference on Graphics Work
Review: This book is very close to perfection in covering topics of the graphics manipulation, which up to the current times was an option of C/C++ developers ( as far as availability of information and samples). It's good for novice and seasoned developers alike.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best VB 6 Graphics Programming Book
Review: This is an excellent book. It covers many aspects of Computer Graphics including Vector Graphics, Raster Graphics, Animation, Curves and Surfaces, 2D and 3D Transformations, and Rendering. Each chapter comes with lots of sample code on the CD. The underlying mathematics are also nicely explained.

I only wish their was a 3rd edition for VB.NET.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Well worth it.
Review: We were having some trouble at work with graphics in VB under Terminal Server (which is restricted to 256-color palette). I bought this book specifically to see what it had to say about palettes. This book has a small section covering 256-color palettes and example programs and we've solved a dithering problem we never could solve before. BTW, Rod's other books are good too.
