    Need Help with reducing lamp intensity PLZ

    It would be easier if you had a higher resolution image. It's a beautiful photograph actually, but for the exposure issues. I wasn't able to conquer the problems, but below is my effort, http://lh4.ggpht.com/_2x-QkQhmj8w/Sn0OAAQKLjI/AAAAAAAAASU/ooDIOVBrTtk/s800/My%20Attempt.jpg Jia

    Need Tips for color enhancing from a pro.

    Mqis is absolutely right. You can make an action and apply all your adjustments to each picture fairly quickly. You can even go back then and fiddle with individual pictures if needed. The reason I posted though was to ask if you've worked with curves? In your original example photo, I've...

    Steps that could be taken to do this?

    The way I see it, there are three levels off difficulty. The first is easiest, I would delete the blue background, the yellow Conan box, the title first. You'll want to open it in Photoshop and make it a layer from the background. This way, you'll have a nice transparent background. Second...

    PNG vs JPEG

    PNG is lossless and basically designed for web use. Because it doesn't discard any color information, your PNG files will be bigger. You can always save .jpg files at a higher quality level if you're working from orginals, but the size of file will increase as you increase quality (less...

    crop same region from different images

    Science Lady, Like you, I know some things, but I'm no guru. The two methods that spring to mind that may do what you want are as follows. First, you can record an action that crops the same region with the same rotation. CS4 won't let you record selecting a particular region to crop. You...

    Changing from B/W to 2 colors

    This may not be what you're seeking. But assuming, you're starting with a black and white photo (and it's in gray scale mode), you should be able to select duotone in the mode window (I'm using CS4). One you select duotone, a box will pop up. From there you can select the colors you want to...

    Upsampling in ACR-pros or cons?

    Fabthi, I am no expert. So I expect you will receive other--more accurate--answers. But in my experience, the answer is a qualified yes. I believe, have read, and found through testing, that I can usually upsample one size to the next larger size. The upsampled image loses some sharpness...

    Transparent background

    Supersess, I'm new also. And you probably long ago figured out the answer to this question. There are many ways to tackle it I expect. The way I would use is to change the background to a layer. If you've the layer window open, usually you can right click on background and hit "new layer...
