[...] i'm a fan of the Real World Photoshop series by Blatner and Fraser... great info for general Photoshop use, focused more toward print, but that's never been a problem for me (i do a lot of hi-res photo manip work, as well as web work)... because you said you're using 5.0: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/020135375X although i still get by with the book for version 3.0 (and i just upgraded to 6.0)...
