Dave Huss – Many thanks to the Photoshop Elements development team, particularly Mark Dahm. It was a joy to work with my good friend Lynette Kent on this book. I want to thank acquisitions editor Jody Lefevere, who put the parts of the book together; project editor Sarah Hellert for her patience; copy editor Tricia Liebig for her attention to detail; and technical editor Ron Rockwell for his valuable input. I especially want to thank all of the people that let me use their pictures in the book. I must also include thanks to my family, who puts up with my absences while I write books.

Lynette Kent – Special thanks to author/photographer Dave Huss and acquisitions editor Jody Lefevere for asking me to contribute to this book; to project editor Sarah Hellert for her meticulous unscrambling of chapters; to copy editor Tricia Liebig for making sure the text was legible; and to technical editor Ron Rockwell for overseeing the accuracy of the often complicated terminology. Special thanks to Rick Redfern for helping me explain the world of color, and as always, to my parents.
