About the Book

As Web designers become more HTML savvy, many turn to Photoshop as their main design tool. And if you're like most other designers who use multiple products to create a finished site, Adobe Photoshop 6.0 Web Design is written just for you. In this gorgeous four-color book, Web designer Michael Baumgardt shows you how to use Adobe's suite of tools for professional Web design. Covering Photoshop, GoLive and ImageReady, this new edition is fully updated to reflect the changes in GoLive 5, Photoshop 6, and ImageReady 3. The book starts out with the basics of using Adobe tools to create the most important elements of a Web site.
