Re: Is storage really that expensive?
Jacques Lowe, famed for his photographs of the Kennedys, was extraordinarily careful with his negatives. Before he died, he he placed all 40,000 of them in the fireproof vaults of J.P. Morgan. 6 months to the day after his death, planes flew into the building where they were stored, in the basement of the World Trade… -
Re: Photoshop Lab Color: Ch. 2
David has been sparing us the details of the second 1/2 of chapter 3 because they aren't really about color correction, rather about the relevance of LAB to the way people actually see. Dan describes a study of people with red-green color blindness. Turns out they don't see adjustments in the A curve. So perhaps red-green… -
Re: Backprinting and other Pro Questions from a newbie
Hi Pam, I'll do my best to answer your questions below: Can you find out the order # for us so we can have a look at the order and the images? Auto Color is great for 98% of all images, but there are some exceptions. Pros order both, and it depends on a) how confident you are in your color correction/calibration and b) how… -

Re: Resizing the Slideshow/Buy buttons in Galleries
You have some much code that it's over-riding the code I posted. That said, find and remove this: .sm-user-ui .sm-gallery-header .sm-button-skin-default,.sm-user-ui .sm-gallery-header .sm-button-skin-accent { padding: .75rem 1.5rem; font-size: 1rem; margin:0 5px; border: 1px solid yellow; background-color: orange; color:… -
Re: Criteria to Select Wedding Photographer
Just chiming in to agree with the personality/compatibility comments. One of my favorite comments to get from folks at a wedding is "OMG you're so much more fun than the wedding photographer my husband and I hired!" or "You're such a great photographer!" (before they ever see a picture, which I'll never understand. I'm… -
Mini Challenge #98 winner:
OK, time for the reckoning: I'm going to take each submission, and select just one picture which strikes me as being closest to the spirit of the original competition. That's not to say that the others aren't any good, it's just that the ones I selected jumped right out at me with very little effort on my part: BTW: For… -

Since I use my 10-22 98% of the time I had it set for use with that lens to minimize distortion and have sharp images with that lens According to maxmax's website.. Well.. not sharp isn't exactly the word for it... both the 50 and the 70-200 remain quite sharp, but only if you use manual focus. These shots are with the… -
Re: Jellyfish
I don't want to hijack your thread . . . Over the past six months I've realized that my major interest in photography is primarily as the family historian. While I love the artistry and skill involved in stunning landscapes, abstract photography, and macros, that's not what I am really interested in right now. My goal is… -
Re: SmugMug Feature Requests #6
Mpeg-1 is a headache! Of course the only FREE Mpeg-1 batch converter out there, TMpgenc, does not correctly output my 16:9 video files from my DVD-cam! I've spent countless hours trying to get it to work and it just won't. FX MPEG Writer (which Smugmug recommends) worked on the first try, but does not support batch…
