No, you're right. This is a common problem, sadly. Those "dumb" websites have no parameters for enlargement, they just look for numbers of pixels. Everyone who sells digital files face this problem from time to time. It's yet another reason why you should be aiming to shift your business model towards printing, not selling digitals. For now, find out what size they are trying to print, and which files, and resize them specifically and send them again.

Oh yes, 80 is very common. Even 70 in some cases.

How long since you last used this calibrator successfully? I suspect it's dying.

Is there a question to go with this photo?

Ok, thanks!!!

I have a method that would turn a three-hour job into a two-and-a-half hour job. I can share it with you if you like, but honestly, it's not worth it.

No no, the raw processing is much too dark. You have to open up those shadow areas a LOT, if we're any chance here.

You should just be able to drag and drop it from its original location. For example, if it was an Effect, open the Effects panel and find it there, then drag and drop it to your Favourites.

That's a huge loss of detail. I rather doubt it. Can you explain the situation? Why does it need to be that small?

Yes, easily passable. It's a huge pity when eyes don't have the same focus, and moreso when it's the front one that missed. Technically speaking, if you wanted to do this perfectly, you'd apply about 0.8 of Gaussian Blur to the sharp eye to make it match the front one. It would make them even, and they'd still both be razor sharp once sharpened for output (which I know you know how to do, since you're in the Sharpening Class). However, I know that the idea of blurring eyes, even a little bit, scares the crap out of most people, so they generally live with one looking a bit worse than the other.

Of course!!! That's exactly what you paid me for. I want to see you post there every day!

Strangely, mine has begun to do that too. Can you still click this button ok?

Gosh, that's strange. I doubt guest will work. It'll need to be somebody with the right access. It should be in /Library/Colorsync/Profiles

Hi Ang, Restart your Mac in safe mode (google will tell you how). While in safe mode, find and delete the faulty monitor profile.

Yep, that way

Yeah, your gradient went the wrong way. It should be white at the top fading to black at the bottom.

I'm sorry, I don't understand the question.

Download the file I hope it helps. It's not perfect, but it's the best that's possible. You can go ahead with your normal editing now, and it should be passable.

That's excellent news. You've grown a lot in this short thread. Just wait until you take Levels. Your growth will blow you away.

But the bottom one is much more similar to the three examples you showed me. Have you changed your mind about your taste? (That's perfectly ok, I hate the bottom one.)

There is, but unfortunately not in Elements. Can you send me the scan so I can do it for you?

Do either of them speak to you?

Really? I used one at about R200 G30 B30 and it looked plenty red.

Gosh, that's nowhere near as red as the sample links you gave me.

Terrific! So, let's try something simple first. Add a darkish red Solid Color layer immediately above the Blurred layer, and clip it thereto. Then play with blend modes (and tweaking the colour of the red). I found that Soft Light mode looked pretty good.
