				My high school child was given an old version of PS (CS to be exact) i believe it was released in 2003? Nonetheless its never been used and it was free. Having no experience with this type of software, any suggestions on the best instructional books or other tutorial resources?  |

				Hi duanep and welcome to the forum. Book recommendation will normally depend on which direction people wish to take Photoshop. I would normally say if possible complete online tutorials and resources and when they are more comfortable in the basics perhaps then research specific book titles.
 
 
Here's one to get you started, although there's plenty of others out there too Beginners tutorials _________________ If life serves you lemons, make lemonade!  |
