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.

In case you need more info about bit depth: https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/09/bit-depth-explained-by-cake.html

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.

May I see just the raw edit?

I have absolutely no idea, sorry. I've never dabbled with Facebook's date controls.

This is another one of those things that's a dead simple one-step edit with Channel Mixer in Photoshop; but takes a few steps with Elements. The Elements workaround, as you probably know, is here: https://www.damiensymonds.net/tut_psecm.html Here's the file: https://max.mailbigfile.com/c2700cd21ad057e6c2dffe4227e74f0e/listFiles.php

It's no biggie, you just need to go to the Layers panel submenu (the three little lines) and choose "Panel Options". Presently your thumbnail size is set to "None". Change it to something bigger.

Yep, you got it. Use Image Processor, and include an action that resizes and sharpens. Exactly as discussed at the end of these instructions. https://www.damiensymonds.net/act_web.html

Not crazy at all. I mean, it's a bit hard to let photos go that you know aren't as good as they can be, but it's what we have to do sometimes. Generally you'd do the ACR editing the same as normal, then at the last minute, increase the Contrast slider. Also be generous with Clarity.

Don't forget how you warped her cheek and generally messed up the hair swap on that camera-left side of her face. I can help you with the shadow, but I'll wait, if you don't mind. Start again and avoid all those other problems.
