PSE2 Complete Course errata

There are literally thousands of instructions in my tutorial books. So there are bound to be a few things that slip through the editing process, as in almost any book on your shelf. (Fortunately, humans are not perfect. Think of all the creativity that would be lost if we were.) Here's a short list of errata for Photoshop Elements 2 Complete Course. Fortunately, most are minor. If you find anything more please let me know by email, so I can make changes in the next printing:

Pg. 8, Tip: Add the Mac equivalent after the Windows command Edit>Preferences>General -- (Macintosh: Photoshop Elements>Preferences>General)

Pg. 9, Step 5: Add after Notice in the File name field that Photoshop Elemnts 2 automatically adds a .psd suffix to the file name climber -- unless you changed the Format field earlier. If so, choose Photoshop from the Format menu.

Pg. 197, Step 3 reads: R...B...C
Should read: R...G...B

Pg. 199, Step 8 reads: Choose Select>Invert
Should read: Choose Select>Inverse

Pg. 205, Step 4 reads: move the cursor
Should read: hold the Alt (Macintosh:Option) key and move the cursor
