Summary: Good book, oh, and by the way, it's "lynda.com"
Review: This is a great Photoshop/ImageReady training or hands-on resource. It really should be titled "Lynda's ImageReady training, co-starring Photoshop." The book is geared for those who know the basics of Photoshop, but it focuses on ImageReady, not Photoshop. It gets a little repetitive, but my biggest problems with the book are a.) all the blatant advertisements built into the lessons, and b.) the fact that their tech support is completely un-responsive. Every other exercise in the book contains a graphic with a marketing ditty for Lynda.com. I hope her upcoming Dreamweaver 3 HOT book is less obnoxious. My CD came with a scratch that made the files for one of the lessons inaccessible and I e-mailed her "tech support" for help. That was over a week ago, I have still not received a relpy, and I don't expect to. Why offer to help if you don't do so? Other than that, it is a very well written learning aid for how to apply ImageReady (and Photoshop) to the Web. I recommend it for anyone who already knows basic image manipulation.

Summary: This is a fantastic and unbelievably useful book.
Review: This is probably the most useful computer book I have ever purchased. It had levels of detail that are not only simple to follow, but also extremely useful in a real-world production environment. Every professional user of Photoshop 5.5 must have this book.

Summary: Informative
Review: This was the required textbook in a Web Graphics class at college. I agree with the reviewer below that there's a little too much advertising for lynda.com, but I like the way she writes instructions for the exercises (very simple, but without insulting your intelligence). I learned a lot about Photoshop and Image Ready. It's really not a "beginner's" book, as she makes clear (of which I still consider myself at this point). Also, the exercises are fun and informative.
