    Make this picture color + better

    A large part of the problem is being too "uniform" with the colour. There needs to be subtle changes in the colour. For example, cheeks will usually have slightly higher saturation while the area around the eyes will be a bit lower in saturation. The forehead will tend more towards orange...

    chOps

    ChOps = Channel Operations Started by Kai back in the day. Back then, ChOps was the only way to do a lot of things because PS was still young. Image > Apply Image Image > Calculations Layer with various blending modes can be considered ChOps. As can using shortcut keys to do various...

    Bones...

    Like I said, quick-n-sleazy. I could have done a better job, but I'm not interested right about now. Maybe next time when I'm not dealing with rampant illness (3 out of 4).

    In case you couldn't tell, I have issues with Patch. It's one of those 'high level' tools and you can't always tell what it's going to do. When using it for large, gross fixes, it can do some really weird things. For that reason, I prefer to use it at the 'lower levels'. I've heard that the...

    No! Not Patch/Heal on RGB! Bad, Welles. Bad. Go lie down. Personal preference thing. I don't like how Patch/Heal works on RGB one bit. It does funky things when you use it on the 'whole'. I recommend using Patch/Heal on 'individual' things. You'll see what I mean in a few minutes. What we...

    A great deal of the trick is in luminosity. Probably best to think in terms of high frequency and low frequency. Once you nail the lum, shouldn't take much to fix hue and sat. Or hue and sat first, then lum. I'm on my way to the office. In the meantime, start thinking about high/low...

    how to make background tarp

    I thought she was showing a little more leg than I allow. The cult is growing. One of these days she's going to get her own webpage. Seriously.

    Image of Boston's Snowfall...the next day

    That's what our Geo looks like right about now. Except it's blue. To make matters worse around here, there was a major water leak. The neighbor lady moved out some months ago, and a few days ago a hose came free off of her water heater. Water damage all over her old bedroom, down the hall...

    Glad to see you up again!

    Love WSFTP. I use a rather old version. My big foible with it, though, is passive mode.

    FX-Zone refuges - reunite!

    There was a time when it was good - it was very good. Then it started slipping. Then it got bad. Then it sucked. Then it seriously sucked. Now it's completely gone. C'est la vie with mixed emotions. I am a refuge from the forums that shall not be named. I know that there are a few...

    Custom Filters??

    If you include 'convolutions' or 'kernal' in your search, you should get some good hits. There is one really good site with excellent examples, but I can't find it just yet. If you really get into it, might want to try the Custom filter by Reindeer...
