  1. Lol, well, measure them!!!! You can't print a 6x4, for example, if a foot is 6.5" long! You need to plan this.
  2. The Ultrasharps are great. If you see a variance in price that you don't understand, check the gamut. The more expensive ones might be wider gamut.
  3. At this point I need a bit more info. What size print/s do you intend to get?
  4. Both are great products, and I feel the X-Rite is a little more user-friendly, but the Spyder Elite has better controls if working with multiple monitors, in my opinion. However, you'd be happy with either one. I hear ya! I bought mine from overseas for the same reason. Thankfully I've never needed support or a return, but you're right, I would have been in some bother if I had.
  5. Are you sure you need to photograph them? Scanning would be better, if you have a scanner.
  6. I have no reason to think the profile is wrong. But you won't know for sure until you get the photo printed.
  7. I've had great success with this method.
  8. You'll find that one of the cooling filters (probably LBB) will work great for this.
  9. You must must must do this.
  10. Ok, now I need 100% crops from the problem areas of all these photos. Please do the raw editing first, then take 100% crops from the SOORs.
  11. If you can't find any with more of the railing and decking to the right, I fear this is a lost cause.
  12. Do you feel that the light in your room is too yellow? The overhead bulbs, I mean? They certainly shouldn't be, 5500 should be great.
  13. Download the PSD file First I copied the existing end of the jeans and moved them down. Then I used a chunk of the other photo you provided (twice, actually) to fill in the space. Along the way I also used some Hue/Saturation layers to darken stuff. Once I'd done all I could do with what I had, I used some cloning to fill in the remaining gaps.
  14. May I see that photo also?
  15. It won't be easy
  16. Hmmm ... could you send me one of the exact files you sent to the lab to print?
  17. Ok, definitely DON'T turn on Simulate Paper Color. They only say that for uncalibrated people who have their screens way too bright. Ok, if Perceptual seems to be what they use, that's fine.
  18. No, the camera equipment doesn't really play a part. Tell me about the foot- and hand-prints. How will you make them? Will you paint the child's hands and feet, then have them press them onto paper?
  19. Please read the section guidelines, especially rule 1.
  20. Is Perceptual specifically what they advise?
  21. Since you're considering using it on more than one, screen, I'd urge you to stretch the ol' budget to the Spyder Elite if at all possible.
  22. Yeah, gosh, that might do it! What do you think of this?
  23. Such is the price of masterpieces. If making beautiful art was easy, everyone would do it.
