Adobe Camera RAW toolbar

[FlawlessFacesAndPhotos]

I am trying to follow your tutorial on how to eliminate banding on a backdrop. I open my image from my card and import it into bridge. Then I open it in ACR in order to follow along with your tutorial, but my screen does not have a toolbar going down the left hand side like yours does. It appears you have many more tools for editing in ACR than I do. I can't figure out how to even follow along. Can you help?

As I am looking at your video tutorial again, I am wondering if you are working in PS and not in ACR...

Yes, of course PS.

But you're doing the right thing here.  Do your raw processing first, then press "Open" to take the photo into Photoshop, and then start the editing.
