Book Description
The ultimate rich resource for amazing type design with Photoshop. Nothing can ruin a stunning piece of art quicker than finishing it off with poorly executed type effects. The Photoshop Type Effects Encyclopedia is a non-linear tutorial and a visual reference walking users step-by-step through complete details for designing professional level type effects. The book is organized into two general parts: a contextualizing introduction; and the actual encyclopedia, with rich illustrations of what each effect looks like, how to create the effect (including screenshots and other illustrations showing the step-by-step progress of each effect), and how to do your own variations of the effect. Each page is easy to read and follow, yet is packed with information.

Customer Reviews & Comments
When I saw this book, my first impression was `Cool, it looks like a great new Photoshop 7 cookbook.' If that had been the case, I would have been happy enough, but it turned out to be the type of book the expression `Don't judge a book by its cover' came from. When you first hold this book in your hands you instantly know it is something special. The cover is made of a beautiful thick material and has large flaps that can easily be used to hold your place when you have to grudgingly walk away from the computer. The next pleasant surprise is the table of contents. I had no idea this book not only included some of the classiest style ideas I've seen in a long time but also some lessons in typography, a very important part of the art world that has been struggling to break into the minds of many web designers. There is no way this book will sit on your bookshelf. Instead, it will be one of the first you open when deciding how to start a job or complete a logo or fix a clients problem. Happy Styling! Leslie
