How does this book compare to the other books, digital scrapbooking videos and classes available for purchase?
There are several good books, videos, and classes available for purchase from different sources that can help you. This book is comparably priced with them and as you can see by looking at the Table of Contents, it covers much more information. My book is program specific to Photoshop Elements and can be used with Photoshop too. I do not cover other programs like Paint Shop Pro, Scrapbook Max, etc. Having this book on your desk allows you to quickly look up information in the comprehensive index. This is a definite advantage since not all digi-scrapping books come with an index. Finding and playing a video, searching for the right topic, and possibly having to play it several times to understand what you need to do is time consuming. I have very limited time available to digi-scrap. In order to use the time I have to the best advantage, it’s beneficial for me to have a book like this as a reference.
