Yes, cloning. Vary the source frequently. Make sure you do it on a new layer. https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/10/role-of-masks-when-cloning.html

Yeah, sure! It would take time and patience, but definitely feasible.

Why would you, though? Why would you bother clogging up your hard drive with an extra PSD? Those suckers are big.

Well, no. Complicated, but I agree with your process. If all you have is Excel and Photoshop, it kinda has to be that way I guess.

No, that's the right page. You need the "White Point Targets" section.

Hang on, what? You'd change the luminance target if the screen is too bright or too dark. Is that the case? For the screen's coolness, you change the white temperature.

Don't worry about it for now. Start with the Layers & Masks Class first instead.

Darn it, you're right. My googling says that (weirdly) Adobe have continued support for Windows 7 64-bit, but stopped supporting Windows 8 a couple of years ago

I had Photoshop CC running just fine on Windows 7, so there is no reason it won't run on Windows 8.1. Can you elaborate on the problem? What's happening, exactly?

Fantastic! Ok, follow the troubleshooting part of my calibration instructions, for when the screen is too cool.

Bummer. That's really what you need. So is Photoshop the only Adobe program you have?

How much more free hard drive space do you have now?

Hi Michelle, do you have Adobe InDesign?

You DEFINITELY need to run Glary right away. You didn't actually answer the main question I needed ? Which version of Windows is it?

Hi Gemma, for general info, could you do this for me?

Thanks. Sometimes that means that your room lighting is too yellow. Could that be the case, or are you comfortable that it is nice and white (similar to daylight)? https://www.damiensymonds.net/2012/01/light-around-your-computer.html

Would you say that the screen is a bit warmer than the prints? Or is it a bit cooler than the prints?

It simply means you didn't flatten your layers before saving. It's ok, it's not a big problem.

No, you have to click exactly where I circled. Not the folder name, but the actual action name inside it.

Yep, I can help you create any of these. Just post your photo in this section. But make sure you read the Posting Guidelines first, they're so critical.

Just click on the name of the action, then click Play.

Can you link me to some photos you admire?

Any photos at all, as long as they show a range of colour. For a true black-and-white just use my action. Otherwise, simple a Hue/Saturation layer with the Saturation slider dragged all the way to the left.

Have you ordered some, @Gabriela?

Without prints you can't know if your calibration is correct; and without confirmed calibration you can't upgrade your class. Please get those prints pronto. https://www.damiensymonds.net/cal_starthere.html
