Studio MX Bible
Co-authored by Ron Rockwell

Ron wrote the FreeHand section of this 1100-page book. It is written primarily to FreeHand 10, as that is what shipped with the original Macromedia Studio MX. But towards the end of the writing process, FreeHand MX went into beta, so there is a chapter that deals with all the new toys and tools that FreeHand MX has to offer. This is the first book to explore FreeHand MX, and was published within days of the program's release.

This book deals with the interactivity of all the programs in the Studio: FreeHand, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Flash, and ColdFusion. Through a series of projects, the interactivity between the programs becomes apparent and easy to grasp.

Digital Photography Bible, 2nd Edition
Co-authored by Ron Rockwell

Ken Milburn wrote the first edition of this book and asked a couple of us to help out with this enlarged version. It is designed to help beginners in digital photography all the way through professional photographers who want to learn a little more about the digital end of the trade. Chapters include camera selection, printing images, retouching images, camera equipment, and high-end printing options. Ron's section on advanced image editing will be useful for anyone working with digital images.

Photoshop CS2 and Digital Photography for Dummies
Kevin L. Moss

Ron was the technical editor on this project. It is one of the first "Dummies" books to be printed in color, and Kevin's photos did the book justice. His style of writing is informative and easy to read. The image quality and step-by-step image adjustment intructions are top-notch, making the book well worth the investment.

Digital Nature Photography
Kevin L. Moss

This is Kevin's second book, and it was a pleasure to be the technical editor for it. Ron has been a professional photographer for many years, but Kevin constantly astounded him with his interesting approaches to getting the best nature shots. Kevin spends a good amount of time spelling out the type of equipment you need - from cameras and media cards to snacks and minor first aid gear. The photographic images in the book are truly inspiring! Better yet, he tells you how to get the same results.

Photoshop CS2 Bible
Deke McClelland and Laurie Ulrich Fuller

Tech editors don't get liner credits for Bible books, but Ron spent dozens and dozens of hours editing the 1052 pages of this monster. If you want to do anything in Photoshop CS2, this book can get you started with explanations and examples of just about every feature in the program.

Total Digital Photography
Serge Timacheff and David Karlins

This dynamic duo put their heads together and created a book that helps the photographer transition from film to digital. They explain the ins and outs of various camera features, hardware, software, file types, printing, and the best methods of taking superb photos. Ron did the technical editing on the book, keeping the guys honest.

Digital Sports Photography
Serge Timacheff and David Karlins

As the title says, this book takes you deeply into getting the best sports images you can, whether it's your kid's soccer game, or a professional fencing match. There's a lot to learn about shooting with fast ISO ratings and low light for interior events, and how to pack a portable kit that won't leave you shotless in Seattle. The technical editing task that Ron accepted for this book was an easy job - these guys know what they're doing!

Donna's book teaches you everything you need to edit images, store them, share them, print them from your desktop printer or online service, and how to get the most out of Photoshop Elements. Ron was the technical editor on the project.
