Digital Light & Color

I am totally familiar with the White Balance & Color Correction functionality of PWP. With that said, I saw a Photoshop technique, wherein someone neutralized a photo that had too much of a bias toward blue (very blue skies!). He fixed this by a Filter-Average command that got the average color ...

Last night, I got some pictures from my antiquated iPhone 4g in a restaurant at night under low light, where I couldn't use the flash. I tried to cope with the situation by using the iPhone's HDR feature (on only some of the photos) with scanty success. With my limited expertise, I used the PWP brig...

I posted a while back about getting optimum color calibration for a given printer, and somebody suggested the "Printer Curves" feature available in PWP. I tried to utilize this. The issue is that the dialog is too large and won't completely fit on my display. I have no way to move it. What...

Is Picture Window the best tool for this or are there other 3rd party applications/Photoshop that offer more power/versatility in this regard? Are there any t...

I've just gotten a new HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer and one of the hardest things is getting the colors to be anything like they are on monitor display. Regardless of what printer profile (I've tried several) I use, nothing is right, and further, there are differences in color between prints on reg...

I've been a happy user of PWP 5.0, and am in the market for the upgrade to PWP 6.0, but first, a question: The upgrade is at a price-discount, compared to purchasing the 'full' version of PWP 6.0. What I want to know, is the nature of the program; If I purchase the upgrade, does this mean that I hav...

dlc01-1.jpg Actually, what was done, in the last pic, seems to be, on the right track; The 'purple fringe' is now in grayscale, but is there a way to eliminate it?
