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.

Is the laptop also new?

No, no, no, that's not where you choose the TOGGLE profile! You must only choose it in the DisplayProfile window.

That's right, but a radial one.

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

Sorry, can you explain this part? I don't understand.

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.

It's a little more complicated than that. http://www.damiensymonds.net/2013/02/resizing-photos-in-templates-ps-pse.html

Oh! You mean "crop out the three kids on the left". Hence my confusion.

I don't mind which one we use. Choose one, and do your raw processing on it, then post it again.

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?

Yes, I guess that one would work too.

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.

I agree. We really need her to provide links to examples of what she has in mind.

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.

No, read Module 11 again.

It might be ok. Better to err high than low.

Have you done this yet?

Gosh yes, when you print a photo that tiny, it forces you to examine it much more closely than a larger photo. I'd say you're noticing the printing dots that have always been there, you've just never looked closely before.

Yes, this.

I am. That's ALL I'm worried about. How many pro lab prints do you have there?

I'm running Win10 on heaps of devices here, and all are going beautifully. I know some people have reported problems, but I haven't experienced them. I don't miss Windows 8.
