In normal circumstances you'd just duplicate the background layer, then start cloning. As you know. But in abnormal circumstances, sometimes there is an adjustment layer already above the Background layer, and it has to stay there. So in that case, you need a stamped version of the whole photo above that.

Hey Brian, I saw you mention this graphics card, and it prompted me to ask something that I've wondered about for a while ... What does it mean when there are other brands of the card? For example, on this page: https://www.mwave.com.au/graphics-cards/geforce-rtx-3070 There's an ASUS one, and an MSI one, etc. Are they all equivalent specs, or are NVIDIA ones significantly better?

Gosh yes. Turn that shit right off.

Darn! And just to check, is it also not working if you try re-running it on an older lot of photos that it worked on ok in the past?

Whaaat? Gosh, how did it go?

Handyman will work. https://www.damiensymonds.net/2015/04/the-handyman-method.html

It didn't work, for some reason. Maybe try his collar? That might help our cause, actually. Process it as dark as you dare in raw, it might give us more detail to work with in her face.

I should clarify, it's working for me in Bridge. I haven't used it in Photoshop lately. Have you tried it from Bridge?

Still working for me. What's happening for you, exactly?

I found one optional Windows update, which I've just run. DisplayProfile still works.

I just checked - my Windows is up to date, and my DisplayProfile is still working ok.

Yeah, I fear so.

Right. I reckon the lab are pulling your leg. The issue is not the paper, it's their chemistry.

I started with full opacity. I did the edges first, and then filled in the rest. Because I'd used 100% brush opacity, this meant that some areas were too dark. So then I used a low-opacity black brush to gradually reduce those areas until the blend looked right.

Can you elaborate on this? What is a c-type printer?

Right.

Oh great! No, that's DVI, you're fine.

Yeah, I fear it might be VGA. Can you separate them and show me?

Hi @Caron VO, I'm quite sure your ColorMunki is fine. But yes, there's been a software update. Now, the Munki uses the software that also ships with the newer i1Display Studio. You can get the software here. Then follow my calibration instructions here.

The difference in bit depth is no problem at all. Just press ok to the message and keep going.

Hi @John Day, could you show me some examples of your interior photos?

Looks like this levels layer will work fine: https://max.mailbigfile.com/b132c30ad7f4e7a8ce8376a4addd5534/listFiles.php

Yeah Run, don't walk, to the Raw Class re-sign-up page. This is dreadful.
