I've been using photoshop for a long while now for minor tasks and simple poto editing.

Could someone please recomend a good book for me to start to use the program in a broader perspective.

Thankyou.

Look up books by Scott Kelby. He has books and videos available on a wide range of skill levels. The Photoshop WOW! Books have been favorites of mine as well.

Hi Kclman,

I really enjoy the HOT (Hands-On-Tutorials) at Lynda.com. Very thorough books, with accompanying movie tutorials that complement the studies nicely.

I never had troubles learning Photoshop, but learning the Macromedia Flash interface was just a tree I couldn't climb! The book was indispensible, and I have since bought other books from the series that haven't disappointed. Check'em out if you get the chance.
