  1. Some lab reviews here. Just bumping this question, in case you missed it.
  2. HELL NO. Lightroom MUST be on sRGB. You can't control how other people print, so don't even think about it. It will give you nightmares. You just need to get your own house in order.
  3. What setting are you on here? http://www.damiensymonds.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/cm06-1.gif
  4. These instructions were correct. I fear you're WAY over-thinking the calibration process. Just follow my instructions, including troubleshooting, exactly.
  5. No, you definitely need it on the Millers one, for as long as you persist with using them as your lab. (Hopefully not too much longer)
  6. No, the window you get when you go to View>Proof Setup>Custom in Photoshop.
  7. Oh, no, shit, you must never use these settings. Put them back on "North America General Purpose 2" the way they should be. Stupid f*&king Millers.
  8. Have you followed my instructions all the way through? Including the troubleshooting part? The Photoshop screenshot you attached is irrelevant. I need to see the Color Settings, not the Preferences. Can you elaborate on this?
  9. Yeah, you'll need to use a low-opacity clone tool. I used 20%, I think.
  10. Well, my part was just cloning.
  11. There has to be a bum crack. It'll look completely absurd without one.
  12. Have you got good bulbs for your room yet? No they're not! Your prints are what they are. They never change. Either the light you're viewing them in is too warm, or your screen is too cold.
  13. 5000K lights should be good. How do you think their light compares to daylight? Yes, calibrate in dim light. But of course compare the prints to the screen in good light afterwards.
  14. Don't you think we should at least try and see how it looks with the nearer line gone?
  15. Oh, wait, yes I do. But no, that wouldn't look realistic at all. It would be too chopped-off.
  16. Well, that makes us square, because I don't know what you mean by this either, sorry:
  17. Gosh, well done! I agree that the lighting works better at the RHS, but it's no biggie - go with where they want. The question I have is, have you sufficiently damaged the digital photo to match the quality of the scan? May I see a 100% crop?
  18. Well ... duh. That's why I said:
  19. Not at all. Do exactly the same.
