Yes, I can see it on my other laptop, on my phone, and when I asked in a photographers group a few people said they could see it and others said they could not. My concern is because the last few times I got pro lab prints, the banding was there.  Thanks for trying to help me

Here is another I just did. I did a gradient layer, added noise at 20% and I see quite a bit of horizontal lines aka banding. I owe a drink (or more) to whoever can help me crack this

Laptop screen. 

Could it be a certain setting I have that isn't right? 

Yes, that is the problem. And sometimes I don't even see in on the computer but I will have it on prints

This is after I added a gradient layer per your instructions and then a noise layer on top of that. I still see horizontal line banding    Even if I just edit in LR and save, I get banding.  Any other ideas? I love these backdrops best of all. Thanks!

Yes, here is one  right from LR where I raw edited it, and exactly as it is upon entering Elements, still banding, in 16 bit. 

That is what I do, "edit in" function. I shouldn't have said export I guess. Yes, it exists immediately when I open the image in PS Elements, and it isn't there the instant I press Edit in, in LR. Also happens if I raw edit in ACR instead of LR. 

Hi there - Banding has been my nemesis for months. All of the Damien suggestions (noise layer, replacing with a gradient layer, and not editing in PS) have not helped me and I am thinking it might be a setting I have not set right. I raw process in LR, and I do not see any banding when I am finished up there, but when I export and the image opens in Elements, the banding is there. Before I even touch anything in Elements, it is there. This leads me to believe it has to do with the conversion of raw to jpeg. Any suggestions? Attatched is the image, and the banding I still have after trying everything. Thank you!
