I made 3 or 4 passes with this so I can't give you the ACV file. I used LAB first and set the SHN, set a hue clock on the face and adjusted the face. Then went to RGB and did the same thing. Also used HSB on the final pass.<br /><br />Question: I thought that you could make adjustments in one m...

Gregg, I need help with this. I have been working on the for a couple hours and have gotten nowhere.
I can go to PS and use a layer mask and get a reasonable improvement but that is not what we are after here.
I did start out the SHN and went downhill from there.

My computer is 2.40Ghz dual channel with 4 gigs of RAM. This is the first I've heard about dual boot. Sounds like the dual boot Mac. Gives me food for thought. Thanks,<br />JoAnn H<br /><br /><blockquote><br />If your CPU is 2.0Ghz or better and you have over 1GB of RAM you should seriously thi...

So we should always start with SHN? I haven't been doing that but I can see where it would really help. Thanks for that tip.<br />JoAnn<br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br />SHN is always a good move...it is the basic building block for everything we do in CM...<br /><br />esp. Neutral...When we h...

I'd love to have Win 7....but I'm going to wait until I get a new computer...the one I'm running is XP upgraded from Win 98... I want to start fresh with Win 7. I'm told it's really nice and I'm looking forward to it.<br />JoAnn H<br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br />Doin...

Here's my new little guys. They look much better. I did start over with SNH. That was a good move.<br />JoAnn H<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br />The real issue is the saturation of the colors...when you ramp it up everything gets overblown....With a good neutral you can crank in t...

Yes, that is how I fixed it.

Now that I look at it I agree with you the mask in LAB is better.<br />JoAnn H<br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br />The wizard does give a general overall good response...but...there is the control issue...if you do not use a mask and just use the saturation slider there are areas of the image that ge...

That bad, huh? I thought so.<br />JoAnn H<br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br /><br /><br /><br />I would suggest starting again...<br /><br />Start with the SHN drill and get the image into a good place first...the saturated colors are going to really over cook when you mask and adjust...<br /><br />G...
