I like 5x7s. And always lustre.

Can we talk about this in the Raw Class please?

No, the SOOR please. Raw edits done but no Photoshop work.

Bloody hell, I wish you'd asked me right away. May I see the SOOR?

We're not ready to talk about this yet. Please keep those Raw Class posts coming so we can get you into the second half.

What method did you use to change it?

Maybe this one then: https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/03/softening-hard-shadows-method-1.html

This is fantastic. Definitely no need to move your temporary file location.

The 8GB of RAM is your problem. These days Brian recommends 32GB.

It is possible, but it's really not a good idea. Are you asking because your internal hard drive is too full?

Hi @Bet, This kind of work lives or dies by the quality of the scan. Do you have the actual physical photo in your possession?

NO YOU CAN'T BLOODY EDIT AT NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, because your artificial lighting should be as bright as if the curtains were open.

Right, but if you compare your screen to your prints during the day when there's nice light in the room, how's the match?

Don't overcomplicate this. Does your room have windows?

May I see a screenshot of that?

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

Members have always been able to post in threads, haven't they?

Always remember, no matter how expensive your screen is, there are people in the world creating better images on cheaper screens. Tools don't make the tradesman.

What a load of nonsense.

@Wally?

You said your computer had a wifi connection problem ... but then you said you'd tried solutions that didn't involve your computer. I really think you should buy a cheap wifi dongle. Like this: https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-USB-WiFi-Adapter-PC/dp/B093FT3H7L/

Just to check - did you try a cheap USB wifi dongle?
