I use Unsharp Mask quite often. I find these presets from Kelby very useful:

[FONT=&quot] Sharpening Soft Subjects
Softer nature subjects, e.g. flowers, puppies, people, rainbows.
Amount: 150%
Radius: 1
Threshold: 10
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Sharpening Portraits[/FONT][FONT=&quot]
Close-up portraits
Amount: 75%
Radius: 2
Threshold: 3

Sharpening objects
[/FONT][/FONT][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Amount: 120%
Radius: 1
Threshold: [/FONT]3

Maximum Sharpening
[/FONT][/FONT][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Amount: 65%
Radius: 4
Threshold: [/FONT][/FONT][/FONT]3

[/FONT] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Moderate Sharpening [/FONT][FONT=&quot]
Product shots, home interiors and exteriors, landscapes
Amount: 225%
Radius: 0.5
Threshold: 0

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]All-Purpose Sharpening [/FONT][FONT=&quot]
Subtle, so it can be applied twice if necessary.
Amount: 85%
Radius: 1
Threshold: 4
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Web Sharpening [/FONT][FONT=&quot]
When resolution is dropped from 300dpi to 72dpi, and out-of-focus photos. Adds some noise.
Amount: 400% (try 200% if that's too much)
Radius: 0.3
Threshold: 0

Is it possible to develop presets for these? I have searched the web, but could not find anything.

As Nem has said my friend, why bother?
Every image varies and thus USM would need tweaking for each image. Presets for this seem a bit pointless in my opinion.
