Easy to Follow
I am a computer teacher and find it is often difficult to find manuals which are easy to follow and also colorful with lots of examples.This book has it all.I was impressed.I highly recommend it both for the homeuser and classroom.

A little bit behind the times
I hate to be the contrarian, but I bought this book hoping to get somereal insight into the product.I was a bit dissapointed.The examples inthe book are not at all "wild".In fact, they seemed ratherbasic & simple.The web has advanced at a rapid pace & rainbowgradient graphics are as dated as stick figure "underconstruction" gifs.The book was a good primer for understanding thetool, but offered no real insight into advanced use & tricks.I wentthrough it one time & learned all about the toolbars. I haven't touchedit since.

Great Book!Very Useful and Easy to Understand!
I actually sat down with this book the evening I bought it, and read it cover to cover.David Karlins has a wonderful writing style.The next day I was creating wonderful graphics with really professional results.Since then, I have used this book as a reference tool, and it never lets me down!A must-have for really understanding Image Composer! ...

Good Job!
I must give this book 5 stars.I am not a big fan of the " dummies" series nor am I new to web graphics.I had sooooo much trouble with MIC , even the bottun editor.I bought every book I could find and there wasn't many.This book was the winner, it did help clarify what Microsoft found it so hard to make easy. I do prefer Illustrator or even Freehand but if you are forced to use MIC this book you must have!

Crazy for Dummies!
A Super Must Have book for anyone who's creative.

Didn't know what I was missing
My FrontPage CD included the Microsoft Image Composer, but Inever really made much use of it. Then I bought the "Dummies'book and realized how much I had been missing. The first fourchapters, alone, were worth more than the price of the book. I recommend it to anyone who is at all creative, and not just for web sites. ... Read more
