  1. What is it that you don't like about the background? Is it the wrinkles?
  2. Darn And you definitely turned on "Show RGB sliders" in preferences?
  3. Darn, how weird! Ok, when you go through it again, can you show me a screenshot of your settings at this step?
  4. You did forget? Or you did choose it? Anyway, yes, press "Next".
  5. I've got a feeling that maybe you didn't choose "Expert Console" on this page? https://ask.damiensymonds.net/topic/32039-xelite-12/
  6. Ok ... but does the page I linked answer your question, when you expand the "detailed instructions" section?
  7. Hi @Marliese, thanks for posting. Could you take a photo of the menu on your screen, so I can see what options it gives you?
  8. @SharonMHall PLEASE come back to the Raw Class! Your membership time is quickly running out.
  9. No. If you want weaker colour, change the COLOUR. Opacity is important for gradients, but NOT for gradient maps.
  10. I ... don't understand what you don't understand. The two little squares on top have to be solid black all the time. They are the opacity of the colours. The two (or more) little squares underneath are the actual colours that we see. They are in the same position as the histogram - shadows at the left end, highlights at the right end.
  11. Because white is your foreground colour, of course.
  12. Yeah, lots of people ask about this. Ultimately you'll have to decide for yourself how you approach it - the whole speed vs cost thing. I urge you to take the Bridge Class. It's SO important for this.

  14. Anyway, we're getting off track. I'm glad you've ordered WHCC prints. Once they arrive, you can calibrate your monitor again to ensure a perfect match. Then PLEASE dive into your Raw Class!
  15. This is the one that I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007TCITRS/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=httpwwwdamien-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B007TCITRS&linkId=93d3a5a4945931a04bd18ff6ec7c8876 There are newer versions now, but it still does the job.
  16. That means squat, I'm afraid. The most expensive home printer in the world is meaningless unless you also own the necessarily expensive printer calibration device. Do you own that device?
  17. In the meantime, PLEASE dive into your Raw Class! Great.
  18. Oh yeah, a home printer definitely doesn't count. Gotta have pro lab prints. Which lab did you order from?
  19. @gelz I know you're online right now. Please reply!
  20. Update the V10 one (it will update to V11) and you're good to go.
  21. @Alicia, now that your new computer is up and running, I'd love to see some new photos in class!
