  1. Ok, so your screen is cooler than your prints. Follow the troubleshooting part of my calibration instructions with that in mind.
  2. Ignore this. If you mention it again, I'm walking away from this thread. IT IS IRRELEVANT. This certainly does sound strange, but we'll come back to it later, once we've fixed the colour. Green is the exact opposite colour of pink. So if pictures are missing green, it means they're pink. So on that basis, it sounds like Photoshop matches your prints exactly. But clearly this isn't the case, so please explain this colour difference again.
  3. Terrific. So, complete this sentence for me: "My screen is __________ (warmer/cooler) than my prints".
  4. Yes, of course. That's what it's all about.
  5. No, you did it wrong. Read my numbers again. The swirls WILL disappear.
  6. Channel Mixer layer: R 0, +82, 0, 0 G 0, +100, 0, 0 B 0, +100, 0, +9 Today is the last day of the January Special, so I urge you to jump on board the Channel Mixer Class.
  7. The first step is always to look at the problem. May I do so?
  8. Since this colouring is not at all bad, I would just use a version of the Handyman method. Download PSD
  9. Let me answer this one first. Windows Photo Viewer isn't colour-managed, so it will never be correct. Photoshop is the only one which is correct. Which calibrator did you buy? The X-Rite i1Display Pro that you were looking into?
  10. Go to the View menu and choose "As Thumbnails". I think yours might have changed to "As Details". This is really bad. You're lucky that your computer even starts up, to be honest. You have to try to clear some space.
  11. Are you editing this photo for somebody else?
  12. Did you try it?
  13. How did you go?
  14. Hi Haylee, may I see how it looked before adding the sky?
  15. Yes, of course PS. But you're doing the right thing here. Do your raw processing first, then press "Open" to take the photo into Photoshop, and then start the editing.
  16. How did you go, @Kendra? Did you move Bridge's cache to a different drive?
  17. Oh, I hate it! Well done
  18. Sorry, yes, the only change on the first layer is the blend mode. To add midtone contrast. That doesn't have to be a Hue/Sat layer, a Levels layer would have worked just as well.
  19. Did you look at all of the colour channels? Pull down the "Master" menu.
  20. Sorry, yes, I've updated the file now.
  21. Well, 2GB is great, but still only a drop in the ocean, of course.
  22. I have been using that program since 2006 (I think) and it's never deleted a single file it shouldn't have. I trust it with my life.
  23. Hi Kendra, have you run WinDirStat to get a good visual view of what's taking up the most space? Also, have you run CleanUp! to make sure all the useless clutter has gone? No, you're mixing Bridge up with Lightroom. Bridge can be anywhere, and nothing gets messed up. However, I wouldn't recommend moving Bridge (please understand that I am no Brian, I'm just filling in time until he gets here). Instead, I recommend making a new folder on your D drive called "Bridge Cache Don't Delete" or whatever; then in Bridge, go to Edit>Preferences and to the Cache tab. In there, you'll see where you can choose to have your cache folder. Choose the new folder on your D drive. By default, its cache is probably on C, and that hurts a bit. Also, while you're in that window, hit "Compact Cache".
