32 bit (Photoshop)

I have traditionally used Nikon's proprietary software for it's raw files, an aftermarket image sharpening program, then used PWP on the resulting 16 bit/channel file in an attempt to get the best quality image. However, I recently read some comments from a photographer who praised the benefits of o...

Re: PWP 8 Progress Update

Didn't know if we are supposed to be using the new PWP 8 Beta thread yet for a PWP 8 question or if that is reserved for when the Beta version comes out, so thought I would ask on this thread. It appears that Soft Light and Hard Light (as well as Absolute Difference and a couple others) are no longe...

Re: Watercolour question

Thanks Jonathan, I sort of figured that the banding was part of the WC result. Just thought I would ask anyway. Tried all the masking tools and found them needing as much work in the cleanup as the cloning itself. So many different tones/hues that make masking difficult to get all the areas. I'll ju...

Watercolour question

I have an image (6048 x 4032) that has a fairly large expanse of (what I thought was) featureless sky. I ran it through the Watercolour transformation with default slider positions, however, because I did not like the result at the default 2000 px, I changed that to 6048. The final image was quite a...

Ya, that's sort of what I figured.

Another masking question

I use PWP to generate a ton of masks, and have saved dozens of them over the years (as 8 bit b and w images) that I intend to use at a later date. However, I also generate temporary masks that I only intend to use during a current session. When I am doing this, I will often-times generate up to twen...

Re: Undo a Save

Jonathan, I'm not sure what you mean by "back up the image". I started with the original image, made a number of new versions, saving some along the way. Decided to save another one of the versions to replace one of the already saved images, not the original. Found out I was wrong. Thanks ...

Undo a Save

I inadvertently did a "Save" to an image rather than a "Save as". I was asked if I wished to delete the prior image and replace it with the new version, but because I was not paying real close attention and thought it was referring to another image, I pressed OK (I had quite a fe...
