Acknowledgments

[ LiB ]

I am deeply appreciative to the many people who assisted with this book. Thank you for all the time you gave and for your assistance.

To Stacy Hiquet for the opportunity to write this book and for her confidence in me. A very special thanks goes to Sandy Doell for her unending assistance in the book development; to Sonja Shea for (again) checking all the technical angles and keeping me straight; to Karen Gill for her help in making this book grammatically correct; to Shawn Morningstar for laying it all out so nice and easy; and to all those at Premier working behind the scenes whose names I don't know. I really appreciate your fine work.

A special recognition goes to all those on the various Paint Shop Pro newsgroups, especially "Bonesy" Sonja Shea (PSPToybox), Patti Wavinak (Moon's Designs) and Porter, and to all the regulars. Thanks for letting me bug you with my questions and for all the special assistance you provided. I learned and laughed with all of you! To Nancy, Kris, Joe, and everyone at Jasc Software: You are still the nicest group of people I've ever worked with.

To my husband, Vern: Thank you again for all your support and never-ending faith in me. Your help at deadline time is immeasurable.

Finally, and most importantly, I give praise and thanks to God above for all the blessings He's bestowed on me. Without Him, I can do nothing.
