    Gosh, no, something's gone badly wrong here. Do your raw processing properly, then post the closeup again.
  2. Damien Symonds
    In case you're not already aware of it, this will help a lot: http://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/10/shift-while-brushing.html
  3. Damien Symonds
    Yes, I think I can. It'll be tricky, but I'm moderately confident. Go ahead and do your raw processing first, then post the SOOR for me and we'll discuss the background.
  4. Damien Symonds
    Also, may I see the whole SOOR? Also, please don't waste your computer space by being in 16-bit. It's entirely unnecessary.
  5. Damien Symonds
    Has this problem always existed, for as long as you've had the action? Or is it something that has started happening more recently? Also, can you do this for us?
  6. Damien Symonds
    I cannot stress this enough. You MUST IGNORE THIS WINDOW. It is completely meaningless.
  7. Damien Symonds
    Just use a two-colour gradient - dark to light. It looks a bit weird having that dark circle behind his neck. Otherwise, this is good. Now zoom WAY in and start masking properly.
  8. Damien Symonds
    As I mentioned earlier, I used a radial gradient rather than a linear one, but I think what you've done here will totally work. Go ahead and start your precise masking now.
  9. Damien Symonds
    Is the laptop also new?
  10. Damien Symonds
    No, no, no, that's not where you choose the TOGGLE profile! You must only choose it in the DisplayProfile window.
  11. Damien Symonds
    That's right, but a radial one.
  12. Damien Symonds
    No no no!!!!! You don't use FastStone any more, because you have Bridge. FastStone is great, but Bridge is heaps better. http://www.damiensymonds.net/bridge-video
  13. Damien Symonds
    Sorry, can you explain this part? I don't understand.
  14. Damien Symonds
    So it stays on the yellow/greenish colour of the TOGGLE profile?

    Definitely don't attempt to remove it. It's too difficult. Instead, replace the whole background.
  17. Damien Symonds
    It's a little more complicated than that. http://www.damiensymonds.net/2013/02/resizing-photos-in-templates-ps-pse.html
  18. Damien Symonds
    Oh! You mean "crop out the three kids on the left". Hence my confusion.
  19. Damien Symonds
    I don't mind which one we use. Choose one, and do your raw processing on it, then post it again.
  20. Damien Symonds
    Crop out the two boys on the right? How do you intend to do that, exactly? You'll have to crop really close to the middle boy's head, yes?
  21. Damien Symonds
    Yes, I guess that one would work too.
  22. Damien Symonds
    No problem. We'll see what we can do. Go ahead and do your raw processing on your photo as normal, then post it again for me and we'll play.
  23. Damien Symonds
    I agree. We really need her to provide links to examples of what she has in mind.
  24. Damien Symonds
    No, don't do the marquee thing. It's limiting yourself too much later, in terms of print shapes. Take the time to mask the background around the WHOLE horse.
  25. Damien Symonds
    No, read Module 11 again.
